| Summary: | Existing convolution neural network (CNN)-based video synthetic aperture radar (SAR) moving target shadow detectors are difficult to model long-range dependencies, while transformer-based ones often suffer from greater complexity. To handle these issues, this paper proposes MambaShadowDet, a novel lightweight deep learning (DL) detector based on a state space model (SSM), dedicated to high-speed and high-accuracy moving target shadow detection in video SAR images. By introducing SSM with the linear complexity into YOLOv8, MambaShadowDet effectively captures the global feature dependencies while relieving computational load. Specifically, it designs Mamba-Backbone, combining SSM and CNN to effectively extract both global contextual and local spatial information, as well as a slim path aggregation feature pyramid network (Slim-PAFPN) to enhance multi-level feature extraction and further reduce complexity. Abundant experiments on the Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) video SAR data show that MambaShadowDet achieves superior moving target shadow detection performance with a detection accuracy of 80.32% F1 score and an inference speed of 44.44 frames per second (FPS), outperforming existing models in both accuracy and speed. |
