Recurrent Artficial Neural Networks for the Detection of Oil Spills from Doppler Radar Imagery

• This paper discusses the application of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to the detection of oil spills in sea clutter environments from the classification of radar backscatter signals. A comparison and evaluation of different network architectures regarding reliability of dection and robustness to varying sea states/wind conditions shows that for this problem best results are achieved with a recurrent architecture similar to that of Elman's SRN.
