A novel U-shape Swin-Gan based Optical to SAR image transfer method
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) consistently acquires data regardless of lighting conditions, atmospheric interference, or weather factors such as cloud cover and haze. However, acquiring SAR images is more expensive and time-consuming than optical images. This paper presents an innovative U-shape Swin Transformer generative adversarial network (SwinGAN) to transfer optical to SAR images. The U- shape SwinGAN utilizes a symmetric architecture with downsampling and upsampling paths connected by feature fusion path for detailed feature preservation. Swin Transformer is utilized as a backbone to optimize the network's ability to capture long-range dependencies. Furthermore, the specially designed contextual image spatial relation encoder (ciSRE) enhances the ability to capture local information. This method is applied on datasets based on Google Earth and Sentinel-1 imagery acquired over Calgary (CA). The simulated results show better transform consistency than state-of-the-art models.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
