👑DiffDet4SAR is the first work of diffusion model for SAR image aircraft target detection.

DiffDet4SAR: Diffusion-based Aircraft Target Detection Network for SAR Images
published by GRSL DOI: 10.1109/LGRS.2024.3386020

🛠️ Updates

(04/2024) Code is released.

🕸️ Dataset

SAR-AIRcraft1.0 (doi: 10.12000/JR23043)

📽️ Getting Started

The installation instruction and usage are in Getting Started with DiffusionDet.

🚉 Train/Evalution:

modifying the weight in DiffusionDet-main/configs/Base-DiffusionDet.yaml (use pre-train res50)
modifying the weight in DiffusionDet-main/configs/diffdet.coco.res50.300boxes.yaml
modifying DiffusionDet-main/detectron2/engine/defaults.py and the 98-122 line to your root.
As for other configs and their meaning, DifffusionDet is introduced in detail.
ATTENTION：In order to use the code directly and reduce the complexity of the code, I changed the images and annotations of the aircraft dataset into the coco format, and put them in the folder named coco.

🏝️ Quantative Results:

Quantitative results of different models evaluated by AP@50.

*The overall repository style is highly borrowed from DifffusionDet. Thanks to Shoufa Chen.
