The One

Facing the complex marine environment, it is extremely challenging to conduct underwater acoustic target feature extraction and recognition using ship-radiated noise. In this paper, firstly, taking the one-dimensional time-domain raw signal of the ship as the input of the model, a new deep neural network model for underwater target recognition is proposed. Depthwise separable convolution and time-dilated convolution are used for passive underwater acoustic target recognition for the first time. The proposed model realizes automatic feature extraction from the raw data of ship radiated noise and temporal attention in the process of underwater target recognition. Secondly, the measured data are used to evaluate the model, and cluster analysis and visualization analysis are performed based on the features extracted from the model. The results show that the features extracted from the model have good characteristics of intra-class aggregation and inter-class separation. Furthermore, the cross-folding model is used to verify that there is no overfitting in the model, which improves the generalization ability of the model. Finally, the model is compared with traditional underwater acoustic target recognition, and its accuracy is significantly improved by 6.8%.

Gated Recurrent Unit

Underwater acoustic target recognition is an important part of underwater acoustic signal processing and an important technical support for underwater acoustic information acquisition and underwater acoustic information confrontation. Taking into account that the gated recurrent unit (GRU) has an internal feedback mechanism that can reflect the temporal correlation of underwater acoustic target features, a model with gated recurrent unit and Network in Network (NIN) is proposed to recognize underwater acoustic targets in this paper. The proposed model introduces NIN to compress the hidden states of GRU while retaining the original timing characteristics of underwater acoustic target features. The higher recognition rate and faster calculation speed of the proposed model are demonstrated with experiments for raw underwater acoustic signals comparing with the multi-layer stacked GRU model.

The Impact

Underwater acoustic target recognition is an important aspect of underwater acoustic research. In recent years, machine learning has been developed continuously, which is widely and effectively applied in underwater acoustic target recognition. In order to acquire good recognition results and reduce the problem of overfitting, Adequate data sets are essential. However, underwater acoustic samples are relatively rare, which has a certain impact on recognition accuracy. In this paper, in addition of the traditional audio data augmentation method, a new method of data augmentation using generative adversarial network is proposed, which uses generator and discriminator to learn the characteristics of underwater acoustic samples, so as to generate reliable underwater acoustic signals to expand the training data set. The expanded data set is input into the deep neural network, and the transfer learning method is applied to further reduce the impact caused by small samples by fixing part of the pre-trained parameters. The experimental results show that the recognition result of this method is better than the general underwater acoustic recognition method, and the effectiveness of this method is verified.

Deep Cnn

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) have been recently applied to synthetic aperture radar (SAR) for automatic target recognition (ATR) and have achieved state-of-the-art results with significantly improved recognition performance. However, the training period of deep CNN is long, and the size of the network is huge, sometimes reaching hundreds of megabytes. These two factors of deep CNN hinders its practical implementation and deployment in real-time SAR platforms that are typically resource-constrained. To address this challenge, this paper presents three strategies of network compression and acceleration to decrease computing and memory resource dependencies while maintaining a competitive accuracy. First, we introduce a new weight-based network pruning and adaptive architecture squeezing method to reduce the network storage and the time of inference and training process, meanwhile maintain a balance between compression ratio and classification accuracy. Then we employ weight quantization and coding to compress the network storage space. Due to the fact that the amount of calculation is mainly reflected in the convolution layer, a fast approach for pruned convolutional layers is proposed to reduce the number of multiplication by exploiting the sparsity in the activation inputs and weights. Experimental results show that the convolutional neural networks for SAR-ATR can be compressed by 40 × without loss of accuracy, and the number of multiplication can be reduced by 15 × . Combining these strategies, we can easily load the network in resource-constrained platforms, speed up the inference process to get the results in real-time or even retrain a more suitable network with new image data in a specific situation.

Fusion Features

A method with a combination of multi-dimensional fusion features and a modified deep neural network (MFF-MDNN) is proposed to recognize underwater acoustic targets in this paper. Specifically, due to the complex and changeable underwater environment, it is difficult to describe underwater acoustic signals with a single feature. The Gammatone frequency cepstral coefficient (GFCC) and modified empirical mode decomposition (MEMD) are developed to extract multi-dimensional features in this paper. Moreover, to ensure the same time dimension, a dimension reduction method is proposed to obtain multi-dimensional fusion features in the original underwater acoustic signals. Then, to reduce redundant features and further improve recognition accuracy, the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) is used to modify the structure of a deep neural network (DNN). Finally, the proposed underwater acoustic target recognition method can obtain an accuracy of 94.3% under a maximum of 800 iterations when the dataset has underwater background noise with weak targets. Compared with other methods, the recognition results demonstrate that the proposed method has higher accuracy and strong adaptability.
