SAR Speckle Removal Using Hybrid Frequency Modulations

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images often interfere with speckle artifacts that have a great impact on subsequent processing and analysis operations. To remove speckle artifacts, this article introduces a hybrid denoising approach by using a convolutional neural network (CNN) and consistent cycle spinning (CCS) in the nonsubsample shearlet transform (NSST) domain. First, we apply NSST to a noisy...
