Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Due to the limited accuracy of the navigation system, the deviation between measured trajectory and real trajectory of the radar platform deteriorates the focusing quality of the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image. Therefore, a time domain autofocus algorithm that can effectively integrate with precise motion trajectory becomes the key to compensate for motion error.In this paper, an autofocus back projection (BP) algorithm based on time-frequency information of a single point is proposed to compensate for motion error. Considering the different influences of each dimension on slant range, this approach simplifies the three-dimensional (3D) motion trajectory errors of SAR into one dimension. By approximating the trajectory in this manner, the method integrated with the BP algorithm improves the quality of image focusing. Simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
