A Deep Learning Approach for SAR Tomographic Imaging of Forested Areas
Synthetic aperture radar tomographic imaging reconstructs the three-dimensional reflectivity of a scene from a set of coherent acquisitions performed in an interferometric configuration. In forest areas, a large number of elements backscatter the radar signal within each resolution cell. To reconstruct the vertical reflectivity profile, state-of-the-art techniques perform a regularized inversion implemented in the form of iterative minimization algorithms. We show that light-weight neural networks can be trained to perform the tomographic inversion with a single feed-forward pass, leading to fast reconstructions that could better scale to the amount of data provided by the future BIOMASS mission. We train our encoder-decoder network using simulated data and validate our technique on real L-band and P-band data.

Monitoring the Impact of Wildfires on Tree Species with Deep Learning
One of the impacts of climate change is the difficulty of tree regrowth after wildfires over areas that traditionally were covered by certain tree species. Here a deep learning model is customized to classify land covers…
Towards SAR Tomographic Inversion via Sparse Bayesian Learning
Existing SAR tomography (TomoSAR) algorithms are mostly based on an inversion of the SAR imaging model, which are often computationally expensive. Previous study showed perspective of using data-driven methods like KPCA …
Noise-resilient approach for deep tomographic imaging
We propose a noise-resilient deep reconstruction algorithm for X-ray tomography. Our approach shows strong noise resilience without obtaining noisy training examples. The advantages of our framework may further enable lo…
Mining the manifolds of deep generative models for multiple data-consistent solutions of ill-posed tomographic imaging problems
Tomographic imaging is in general an ill-posed inverse problem. Typically, a single regularized image estimate of the sought-after object is obtained from tomographic measurements. However, there may be multiple objects …
