Abstract

High resolution range profile (HRRP) is an important approach in radar automatic target recognition (RATR). Numerous deep learning methods have been proposed for HRRP recognition. However, HRRP is sensitive to aspects. When the training dataset misses aspects, the performance of the deep learning models is limited. Motivated by disentangled representation learning (DRL), this paper proposes a type-aspect disentanglement model to solve the above aspect-missing problem. The proposed method aims to obtain uncorrelated type feature and aspect feature of HRRP via DRL, and uses the type feature for recognition. Specifically, the type and aspect features are explicitly obtained via a VGG11-based network. An adversarial decorrelation loss and a reconstruction loss are applied to guide the disentanglement process. Moreover, the true type and aspect labels are employed to supervise the two features' semantic discriminability. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed method effectively improves the recognition performance in aspect-missing cases.
