Direction-adaptive Mamba: Spatial-Frequency Dual-Domain Collaborative Learning for PolSAR Image Classification

Deep learning dominates polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) image classification, with Mamba architectures serving as favorable backbones due to linear complexity and strong global modeling capacity. However, existing PolSAR Mamba methods have two critical flaws: pure spatial processing discards fine-grained edges and textures, and fixed scanning patterns fail to model direction-variant anisotropic scattering and weak boundaries essential for PolSAR physical analysis. This work proposes DA-Mamba, a direction-adaptive Mamba framework with dual-domain collaborative learning for PolSAR classification. Equipped with an edge-aligned direction-adaptive scanning scheme, DA-Mamba captures long-range spatial dependencies and accurate boundary details. It adopts the Non-Subsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) to separate PolSAR data into low-frequency global components and multi-directional high-frequency subbands, extracting anisotropic structural features from high-frequency information while preserving global context via low-frequency branches. A dual-domain collaborative learning module further integrates spatial scattering and frequency-domain representations to strengthen feature discriminability. Evaluated on three real-world PolSAR datasets, DA-Mamba surpasses state-of-the-art methods, verifying the efficacy of the proposed adaptive scanning and dual-domain fusion designs. Code will be publicly available.

WGDnet: Wishart-guided Geometric-aware Deep Network for PolSAR Image Classification

Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) classification underpins all-weather Earth observation. Conventional Wishart methods depend on rigid handcrafted operators with limited adaptability, while mainstream deep networks ignore PolSAR native Wishart scattering statistics. Additionally, fixed convolution windows fail to capture multi-scale, multi-directional terrain patterns, harming boundary detection and small-object characterization. To mitigate these drawbacks, we propose WGDNet, a Wishart-guided geometric-aware deep network. It integrates three core designs: (1) learnable Wishart convolutions with directional kernels for multi-scale statistical edge feature extraction; (2) an orientation-prior aggregation module that estimates dominant local directions and confidences to refine directional Wishart outputs adaptively; (3) GAnet, a scale-direction adaptive geometric-aware convolution that dynamically reshapes sampling grids to model anisotropic terrain and retain fine details. Our contributions lie in learnable Wishart statistical modeling, orientation-prior feature aggregation, and geometry-adaptive convolution. Evaluations across four real PolSAR datasets verify WGDNet surpasses existing state-of-the-art approaches in classification accuracy and boundary fidelity.

Multiview Manifold Evidential Fusion for PolSAR Image Classification

Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) covariance matrices and their extracted multi-features - such as scattering angle, entropy, texture, and boundary descriptors - provide complementary and physically interpretable information for image classification. Traditional fusion strategies typically concatenate these features or employ deep learning networks to combine them. However, the covariance matrices and multi-features, as two complementary views, lie on different manifolds with distinct geometric structures. Existing fusion methods also overlook the varying importance of different views and ignore uncertainty, often leading to unreliable predictions. To address these issues, we propose a Multiview Manifold Evidential Fusion (MMEFnet) method to effectively fuse these two views. It gives a new framework to integrate PolSAR manifold learning and evidence fusion into a unified architecture. Specifically, covariance matrices are represented on the Hermitian Positive Definite (HPD) manifold, while multi-features are modeled on the Grassmann manifold. Two different kernel metric learning networks are constructed to learn their manifold representations. Subsequently, a trusted multiview evidence fusion, replacing the conventional softmax classifier, estimates belief mass and quantifies the uncertainty of each view from the learned deep features. Finally, a Dempster-Shafer theory-based fusion strategy combines evidence, enabling a more reliable and interpretable classification. Extensive experiments on three real-world PolSAR datasets demonstrate that the proposed method consistently outperforms existing approaches in accuracy, robustness, and interpretability.
