Abstract

Joint sparse representation (JSR) is mostly used in face recognition area. While in this paper, JSR is adopted in the area of SAR automatic target recognition (ATR). In our method, the whole training dictionary is divided into several sub-dictionaries, according to the label of training samples. And classification is based on the minimum representation error criterion. Independent and identically distributed (IID) Gaussian random projection is used to extract feature of SAR images. Experiments are carried out on moving and stationary target acquisition and recognition (MSTAR) public database. Experiments results show that recognition rates can be improved by our method, by combining more useful information and reducing interference information of target.
