Abstract

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image target recognition aims to identify objects captured in radar imagery accurately and efficiently. This core technology is widely used in various applications, including military and civilian contexts. However, SAR image target recognition models are typically deployed on edge devices with limited computational resources and real-time processing requirements, posing significant challenges to the model size, recognition accuracy, and inference speed. Existing SAR image target recognition methods struggle to achieve outstanding performance in all these aspects simultaneously. To address these challenges, we propose EfficientSARNet, a novel efficient model designed for SAR…
