Abstract :
For the speckle consisted in SAR image, SR image cannot be segmented efficiently with traditional methods. In this paper, according to the features of SAR image and ANN, the automatic clustering method based on competitive Hopfield NN is used o segment SAR image. With experiment, it is proved that a good result can be gotten with the method proposed in the paper, and at the same time, the speckle in the SAR image is also reduced greatly.
