CFCANet: A Complete Frequency Channel Attention Network for SAR Image Scene Classification

An important means of remote sensing (RS) imagery interpretation, RS scene classification technology, has recently achieved great success, especially based on deep learning. However, most of these methods are designed for noise-free images. The scene classification performance for noisy RS images, i...
