Abstract:
Most Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images are represented in grayscale. They are created from the intensity of the received signals that are scattered reflections of the transmitted signal. However there are several ways to colorize SAR imagery to extract more information about a scene. By studying the phenomenology and representing them through color, we can better interpret the scene. However, unlike RGB images created from passive sensors, what the colors tell us are not always intuitive. This presentation will explore the interpretations of colors in SAR imagery from Colorized Sub-aperture Image (CSI) products and how they are created.
Speaker Bio:
Sanghui Han is an imaging scientist at CFD Research. She received her M.S. and Ph.D. in Imaging Science from RIT in 2015 and 2019. Since graduating she has worked on projects that support NASIC, DARPA, and AFRL to push the technical boundaries for image exploitation by analyzing radar phenomenology and integrating automated processes. Prior to working at CFD Research, she was a Radar Systems Engineer with Resonant Sciences and KBR where she developed next generation imaging systems with adaptive capabilities, integrated artificial intelligence algorithms, and resilient sensors for contested environments. She was also an Army Intelligence Officer with specialized training in Signals Intelligence and Electronic Warfare with duty assignments in Korea, Germany, and Afghanistan.
