Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The IEEE 13th Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing (WHISPERS 2023) is scheduled to take place from 31 October to 2 November 2023. WHISPERS is a significant scientific and technical event within the realm of remote sensing and is organized by the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS).

The conference’s primary focus is on exploring and advancing the field of remote sensing by delving into hyperspectral image and signal processing techniques. WHISPERS provides an invaluable platform for researchers and industry professionals to engage in discussions about the continuously evolving landscape of remote sensing technology and its diverse applications.

In conjunction with the conference, a Special Issue of MDPI Remote Sensing has been planned, which will be open to authors presenting papers at the conference. It is important to note that papers submitted for this Special Issue should not be identical to the papers presented at the WHISPERS conference. Instead, authors are encouraged to provide longer papers, typically 2 to 3 times longer, offering a more comprehensive presentation of their work, enhanced techniques and methodologies, additional datasets, and expanded experimental sections. Authors are also asked to specify the corresponding paper number for WHISPERS 2023 in their cover letter. Failing to provide this information will result in the paper being considered as a regular submission.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Remote Sensing is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) enables precise object localization and imaging, which has propelled the rapid development of algorithms for maritime ship identification and detection. However, most current deep learning-based algorithms tend to increase network depth to improve detection accuracy, which may result in the loss of effective features of the target. In response to this challenge, this paper innovatively proposes an object-enhanced network, OE-YOLO, designed specifically for SAR ship detection. Firstly, we input the original image into an improved CFAR detector, which enhances the network’s ability to localize and perform object extraction by providing more information through an additional channel. Additionally, the Coordinate Attention mechanism (CA) is introduced into the backbone of YOLOv7-tiny to improve the model’s ability to capture spatial and positional information in the image, thereby alleviating the problem of losing the position of small objects. Furthermore, to enhance the model’s detection capability for multi-scale objects, we optimize the neck part of the original model to integrate the Asymptotic Feature Fusion (AFF) network. Finally, the proposed network model is thoroughly tested and evaluated using publicly available SAR image datasets, including the SAR-Ship-Dataset and HRSID dataset. In comparison to the baseline method YOLOv7-tiny, OE-YOLO exhibits superior performance with a lower parameter count. When compared with other commonly used deep learning-based detection methods, OE-YOLO demonstrates optimal performance and more accurate detection results. Full article
