7 . A AALYSIS OF THE CCD ALGORITHM Fgure 6 presets a smplfed block dagram of the basele coheret chage detecto CCD) algorthm we use these studes. The referece ad test mages are comprsed of comple pels, deoted as mages X m, ad X m,. As dcated the fgure, the algorthm calculates the coherece "γ " betwee the referece ad test mages.e., the magtude of the comple cross-correlato betwee the referece ad test mages). Also these studes, the coherece s calculated usg a 33 cluster of the comple mage data thus, M ).

We wrte the comple pel data ampltude ad phase format: jϕ jϕ m, * m, X X e m, m, ad X m, X m, e The coherece equato defed Fgure 6, epressed ampltude/phase format, s gve as follows: γ M m 0 o M m 0 0 X m, X m, j m X m e m ˆ ˆ * ϕ, ϕ, ), M m 0 0 Xˆ * m, et we make the assumpto that the magtude of the comple referece ad test pels are equal, mplg that the coherece betwee the mages wll deped ol o the phase dffereces betwee pels. Wth ths smplfg assumpto, the followg result s obtaed: f X m, Xˆ m, X m, the γ M m 0 0 We are terested comparg the performace of the CCD algorthm usg the orgal comple mage data versus usg the phase-ol data; ths stud we tall focus o a sub-mage of the grass area cludg the "racetrack feature". Fgure 7 shows a 5656 pel coherece mage cotag the racetrack wth a selected patch of grass outled; ote that the average coherece of ths 5656 pel sub-mage s e j ϕ m, ˆ ϕ m, ) STO-E-SET

Fgures 8 ad 9 preset a sde-b-sde comparso of the grass patch CCD mages calculated usg the orgal comple SAR data versus usg the ampltude-ormalzed) phase-ol SAR data. Ths small patch of grass has average coherece usg the orgal comple SAR data, whereas the average coherece usg phase-ol data. Thus, ths eample seems to dcate that both ampltude ad phase.e., the comple pel data) should be used mage eplotato usg the CCD algorthm; there appears to be a loss the level of coherece usg phase-ol mages. 9-8 STO-E-SET-7-03

RESULTS USIG THE "UIVERSAL IMAGE QUALITY IDEX" Ths secto presets a summar of some terestg results that were obtaed usg a approach developed Refereces 5 ad 6; these authors have proposed a mage qualt metrc called the "Uversal Image Qualt Ide" ad the have demostrated the applcato of ther ew metrc to photographs such as the well-kow "Lea" ad others. Although our SAR mages are comprsed of comple pel values, t was of terest to appl ths ew metrc to SAR test mages. Wth ths goal md, we gve a bref descrpto of the ew metrc ad the preset results of applg the approach to the SAR mager show the prevousl descrbed CCD ad CCD studes. Table presets detals of the Uversal Image Qualt Ide. There are two test mages, deoted as mage X ad mage Y; the cotet of SAR chage detecto, X deotes the referece mage test mage) ad Y deotes the test mage test mage). The table shows a par of 33 clusters of test values to be compared, ad our goal s to fd the chages betwee the referece ad test test mages. The mea, varace, ad covarace of the test values are calculated as dcated the Table. 9-0 STO-E-SET-7-03

16 4. PERFORMACE COMPARISO OF CHAGE DETECTIO ALGORITHMS I the prevous sectos we preseted some prelmar comparsos of the CCD vs. CCD chage detecto algorthms. I ths secto we wll vestgate the detecto performace of the Mamum Lkelhood Estmate MLE) of the SAR coherece parameter. We wll quatf ad compare the chage detecto performace of the MLE versus the CCD. I Table 5 below we preset the deftos of these SAR coheret chage detecto algorthms. We wll also compare the detecto performace of these coheret chage detecto algorthms wth the basele o-coheret chage detecto CCD) algorthm defed prevousl Table. I our prevous chage detecto studes we foud that the MLE verso of the coheret chage detecto algorthm gave better detecto performace results tha the comple cross-correlato) CCD verso of the algorthm. These prevousl obtaed results were agreemet wth a paper preseted b Mram Cha of MIT Lcol Laborator at the IEEE Statstcal Sgal Processg Workshop, A Arbor, Mchga Referece [9]). I Mram Cha s paper, t was cojectured, based o theoretcal aalses of the MLE ad CCD coheret chage detecto algorthms, that the MLE verso should provde better coheret chage detecto performace.e., PD vs. PFA ROCs) tha the CCD verso f the referece ad test mages have appromatel equal uderlg varaces. Clearl, ths s the case for the accuratel calbrated SAR mager used our studes [0]. I ths secto we summarze our studes of these two coheret chage detecto algorthms. Our goal s to determe the sestvt of the MLE algorthm whe the test mage varace s ot comparable to the referece mage varace. We am to show that the MLE outperforms the CCD over some rage of calbrato ga offsets betwee the referece ad test mages, thus, we am to verf the cojecture of Mram Cha. Table 5: Coheret chage algorthms CCD MLE k k k k k k * k * k + k + k k k + k + k + Fgure 4 shows a aeral photo of the "Area-of-Iterest" selected for our SAR chage detecto studes. The area of terest s comprsed of several parkg lots whch are occuped b umerous parked.e., statoar) vehcles. Aalss of the SAR referece ad test mages of ths area were foud to cota a total of 33 vehcles that chaged durg the tme terval betwee the gatherg of the referece ad test mages. Ths set of 33 vehcles were ether "arrvals" or departures" that occurred durg the tme terval betwee the gatherg of the referece ad test mages. 9-6 STO-E-SET-7-03
17 Fgure 4: Aeral photograph of the "area of terest" selected for CCD studes. Fgure 5 presets the SAR referece ad test mages used ths chage detecto stud. The locatos of the chage-detected vehcles are show as crcles supermposed o the mages. There are a total of 33 vehcle detectos these SAR mages; both arrvals ad departures are cotaed the 33 crcles. These chage detectos were verfed b vsuall flckerg betwee the referece ad test SAR mages. Fgure 5: SAR referece mage left), SAR test mage rght). STO-E-SET
18 Fgure 6 left) shows a bar mage of the locatos of the chage-detected vehcles. Ths bar mage s used as groud truth for the targets these CCD/MLE/CCD chage detecto studes. We use the groud truth mage to score the performace of the coheret ad o-coheret chage detecto algorthms evaluated the studes. Detectos that occur the black areas are scored as target detectos. Detectos that occur the whte backgroud area are scored as false alarms. I Fgure 6 rght) we show a "do't care" bad costructed aroud each of the targets to prevet clutter false alarms from beg declared targets. Fgure 6: Locatos of CD targets left); masked locatos of CD targets rght). Table 5 above gves mathematcal equatos defg the SAR chage detecto algorthms to be evaluated ad compared these studes. Two versos of the coheret chage detecto algorthm are gve -- these are deoted as MLE ad CCD, depedg o the algorthm ormalzato used. ote that the MLE ormalzes the umerator b a sum of the referece ad test pel powers, whereas the CCD ormalzes the umerator b a product of the referece ad test powers. The CCD algorthm s the well-kow comple cross-correlato algorthm used for calculatg estmatg) the coherece betwee comple-valued referece ad test mages; we refer to ths algorthm as the "CCD". Sce the MLE algorthm s actuall the Mamum Lkelhood Estmate of the coherece parameter, we refer to ths algorthm as the "MLE". The o-coheret SAR chage detecto algorthm evaluated these studes was gve above Table ; we refer to ths algorthm as the "CCD". A comparso of the performace of these SAR chage detecto algorthms s gve the followg Fgures 7-0; these fgures show PD versus PFA obtaed va chage detecto processg usg CDalgorthm bo szes 33, 55, 77, ad 99, respectvel. Fgure 7 shows the PD/PFA ROC curves obtaed usg a 33 CD-algorthm bo sze; the curves show that coheret chage detecto usg the MLE algorthm acheves sgfcatl better detecto performace tha the classcal CCD algorthm. At 70% PD, CCD gave 700 target-szed FAs, whereas the MLE gave 0 FAs. We also observe that the o-coheret CCD chage detecto provdes better performace tha both of the coheret chage detecto algorthms. We evaluated detecto performace versus the percetage %) of detected pels a target-se bo, ad we foud that detecto performace was ot ver sestve to ths parameter; the ROC curves obtaed for 5% to 30% are tghtl clustered. 9-8 STO-E-SET-7-03

Fgure 8 shows that CCD performace s deftel mproved usg the larger 55 bo sze ad CCD performace s also mproved wth the larger bo sze. The MLE algorthm shows slghtl degraded performace wth the larger bo sze. Fgure 8: Chage detecto performace ROCs; CD algorthm bo sze 55. Fgure 9 summarzes CCD, MLE ad CCD algorthm performace usg a CD algorthm bo sze of 77 to costruct the chage mages. The ROCs show are smlar to those show the prevous fgures. CCD performace s aga somewhat mproved usg a larger 77) bo sze. The CCD performace s also mproved wth the larger bo sze; for eample, PD > 90% s acheved wth PFA 0. appromatel 700 FAs). The MLE algorthm has better ROC performace tha the classcal CCD algorthm, but aga CCD gave the best performace. STO-E-SET

Coheret chage detecto usg the MLE provdes sgfcatl better detecto performace tha the classcal CCD algorthm. At 60% PD, the CCD gave appromatel 350 target-szed FAs, whereas MLE gave ma fewer FAs. Aga we observe that the CCD algorthm gave better performace tha both coheret chage detecto algorthms. Fgure 0: Chage detecto performace ROCs; CD algorthm bo sze STO-E-SET-7-03
21 I ths paragraph we brefl summarze the fdgs of our chage detecto algorthm comparso studes descrbed above. For the target ad clutter data used our studes, we foud that the o-coheret chage detecto CCD) algorthm acheved the best overall detecto performace; ths was true for all bo-szes tested, ad larger bo-szes gave margall mproved ROCs. PD/PFA curves were ot ver sestve to the detector "Fll" parameter from 5% to 30%. The MLE verso of the coheret chage detector gave better detecto performace tha the CCD verso of the algorthm, ad the smaller bo sze 33) gave the best MLE performace. 4. Vsual Comparsos of the MLE ad CCD Algorthms I ths secto we wll evaluate ad vsuall compare chage mages from the CCD ad MLE versos of the coheret chage algorthm wth the test mage scaled ampltude relatve to the gve referece mage. I these tal studes we scaled the test mage b 0 db, +3 db ad +6 db relatve to the orgal referece mage. Fgure compares CCD ad MLE chage mages obtaed usg the Gotcha SAR referece ad test mages wth K,.e., o test mage ga offset). Usg Gotcha SAR mager [0] smlar to that used our studes, MIT Lcol Laborator also showed that a MLE chage mage has hgher cotrast tha the correspodg CCD chage mage; ths pheomeo was demostrated va chage mages smlar to those show Fgure. ote that the average coherece values of the MLE ad CCD chage mages show Fgure are vs , respectvel; evertheless, we show that the chage vehcles the MLE mage are more easl detected tha the chage vehcles the CCD mage. Fgure : Basele performace; left, CCD mage; rght, MLE mage. Fgure shows addtoal eamples of MLE chage mages obtaed usg ampltude scaled test mages; these chage mages were obtaed b comparg the referece mage wth a scaled test mage, K*test mage)), where the scale factor, K, was ether sqrt), or. The MLE basele K ) average coherece of has bee reduced from ths value to ad for ga offsets of +3 db ad +6 db, respectvel. Although these chage mages have less average coherece, t remas to be determed what these test mage ga offsets wll do to the detectablt of the chage vehcles these mages. STO-E-SET
22 Fgure : Left, MLE mage, K sqrt ); rght, MLE mage, K. We cotued these studes order to quatf the actual chage detecto performace PD vs. PFA) acheved as a fucto of the test mage ga offset parameter, K. Frst we determed the average coherece values obtaed from the CCD ad MLE algorthms versus the test mage ga offset for offsets as large as 0dB; Fgure 3 presets these results. The data gve that fgure dcates that the CCD algorthm s uaffected b the ga mbalace, whereas the average coherece estmated from the MLE algorthm s reduced magtude as the ga mbalace s creased. Thus, the PD/PFA ROC curves obtaed usg the CCD verso of the coheret chage algorthm wll be uaffected b the ga offset, ad the correspodg chage mages for the CCD algorthm wll be detcal to the left mage Fgure. Fgure 3: Average chage mage coherece vs. test mage ga offset K db. 9 - STO-E-SET-7-03
23 We evaluated the chage detecto performace ROCs for ths rage of ga offsets these ROCs are show Fgure 4. The curves Fgure 4 show that MLE chage detecto performace s superor to CCD chage detecto performace for PFA < ths s true over the rage of ga offsets smulated. It s of terest to vsuall compare the false alarms ad mssed targets whe a detcal umber of targets are detected b each algorthm. To ths ed, we have selected detecto thresholds for the CCD ad MLE algorthms, resultg a detcal umber of targets detected see operatg pots at PD 0.8 Fgure 4). The correspodg PFA values at these operatg pots are 0.05 vs for the CCD ad MLE algorthms, respectvel. The MLE PD/PFA curve used ths comparso s the 3 db ga offset case.

The detecto threshold used to obta PD 0.8 was I ths fgure, detected targets are overlad wth Crcles, false detectos are overlad wth Squares, ad mssed targets are overlad wth Damods. At PD 0.8 there are 6 mssed targets Damods) ad 73 false detectos Squares). ote that there are a total of 64 false detectos the shadow rego below the large buldg, whereas there are ol 9 false detectos the remag areas of the mage. I the et secto we wll cosder the problem of mtgatg false detectos SAR mage shadow regos ad we wll preset a smple, robust algorthm for performg ths task. STO-E-SET

For ths chage mage the detecto threshold used to obta PD 0.8 s ote that the detecto overlas o the mages llustrate that a dfferet set of targets were mssed b the CD algorthms, ad hece, each algorthm detects a somewhat dfferet set of the targets. It s also mportat to pot out that although both algorthms obta false detectos the shadow regos below the large buldg, the CCD verso of the algorthm obtas ma more false detectos these shadow regos. I the et secto we wll develop ad evaluate the performace of a smple approach to locate the shadow regos tree ad buldg shadows) ad remove false detectos from the SAR chage mage. Our algorthm for mtgatg false detectos these shadow regos wll, of course, mprove the performace of both algorthms. 9-4 STO-E-SET-7-03
25 Fgure 6: MLE chage mage, PD 0.8, PFA 0.04, mssed targets 6; threshold 0.73, detecto fll percetage 5%. Table 6 presets a detecto performace comparso of the CCD ad MLE algorthms before ad after the buldg shadow false alarms are ecluded from the false alarm FA) calculato. Ths comparso shows that a sgfcat mprovemet coheret chage detecto performace could be acheved b mtgatg false detectos shadow regos of SAR chage mager. STO-E-SET

I the prevous subsecto we showed that usg the MLE algorthm to estmate SAR chage mage coherece could gve better target detecto performace tha usg the comple correlato coeffcet, CCD. Furthermore, fgures 5 & 6 we observed that ma false detectos ca occur low-coherece buldg ad tree) shadows. Low-RCS areas such as buldg shadows ad tree shadows, as well as flat asphalt roads have low coherece due to radom phase returs. Sce a X-bad SAR ca t detect target returs from targets located ad masked shadow areas, the CCD performace ROCs could be sgfcatl mproved f such areas were masked as do t care areas before performg the detecto operato. Oe smple approach for mprovg the ROC curves s to post-process the stadard CCD ad MLE mages b settg the coherece of the areas that correspod to low-rcs areas both the test ad referece mages to ut. Target detecto s the performed o the chage mages wth low RCS areas masked. The low RCS areas ca easl be detected as follows. The -th pel the CCD mage s declared as belogg to the o-terestg, low RCS area f the average power of the coheret sum ad the coheret dfferece betwee the correspodg eghborhoods the test ad referece mages s below a selected threshold, T : k f k + gk + fk g k < k T where s the umber of pels the local eghborhood,, of the -th pel. f k ad pel of the referece ad test data the -th pel eghborhood,. g k are the k-th Ths subsecto apples the above algorthm for detectg low-rcs areas the SAR scee ad removg false detectos from these regos of the scee.

A eample was preseted comparg CCD ad CCD performace usg a scee cotag varous tpes of chages that occurred betwee the SAR referece mage ad test mage par. Aother eample was preseted comparg CCD performace usg phase-ol SAR mages versus usg the comple ampltude ad phase) SAR mages -- for the mages used ths stud we foud that the coherece levels obtaed from the comple mager were somewhat better tha the coherece levels obtaed from the phase-ol mager. A ew mage qualt metrc [5, 6], the "Uversal Image Qualt Ide" was vestgated.
