Connectionist Models for the Detection of Oil Spills from Doppler Radar Imagery

• This paper reports on the results of a project investigating the potential of applying artificial neural networks to the problem of detecting oil spills on basis of the radar backscatter signals from a sea clutter environment illuminated by a Doppler radar. Recurrent backpropagation models which were found to exhibit satisfactory performance, superior to that of feed-forward networks, are discussed and analysed in particular.
