    Abstract: A method of identifying a target from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data without incurring the computational load associated with generating an SAR image. The method includes receiving SAR data collected by a radar system including RF phase history data associated with reflected RF pulses from a target in a scene, but excluding an SAR image. Range profile data is determined from the SAR data by converting the RF phase history data into a structured temporal array that can be applied as input to a classifier incorporating a recurrent neural network, such as a recurrent neural network made up of long short-term memory (LSTM) cells that are configured to recognize temporal or spatial characteristics associated with a target, and provide an identification of a target based on the recognized temporal or spatial characteristic.

    Abstract: A computing system including a processor configured to train a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) classifier neural network. The SAR classifier neural network is trained at least in part by, at a SAR encoder, receiving training SAR range profiles that are tagged with respective first training labels, and, at an image encoder, receiving training two-dimensional images that are tagged with respective second training labels. Training the SAR classifier neural network further includes, at a shared encoder, computing shared latent representations based on the SAR encoder outputs and the image encoder outputs, and, at a classifier, computing respective classification labels based on the shared latent representations. Training the SAR classifier neural network further includes computing a value of a loss function based on the plurality of first training labels, the plurality of second training labels, and the plurality of classification labels and performing backpropagation based on the value of the loss function.

    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for predicting abnormal operation of at least one component of a machine is provided. Real time monitoring data from an operating machine is received and monitoring features that are informative of likely abnormal operation are extracted and/or calculated. The monitoring features are applied to a prediction matrix that outputs probabilities of abnormal operation within one or more prediction time horizons. If the output probabilities exceed a threshold probability, then an alert can be output. Maintenance can be automatically scheduled in response to the alert.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for maintaining an aircraft. Real-time event information indicating faults in systems on the aircraft and aircraft condition monitoring system data indicating conditions of the systems on the aircraft are stored during a plurality of legs of flights of the aircraft. A feature table comprising the real-time event information and the aircraft condition monitoring system data is built. Feature vectors are extracted from the feature table. A machine learning algorithm is applied to the extracted feature vectors to generate a predicted maintenance event message that identifies a predicted maintenance event. The predicted maintenance event message is used to perform a maintenance operation on the aircraft.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system for target recognition with complex range profile. The SAR system comprising a memory, a recurrent neural network (RNN), a multi-layer linear network in signal communication the RNN, and a machine-readable medium on the memory. The machine-readable medium is configured to store instructions that, when executed by the RNN, cause the SAR system to perform various operations. The various operation comprise: receiving raw SAR data associated with observed views of a scene, wherein the raw SAR data comprises information captured via the SAR system; radio frequency (RF) preprocessing the received raw SAR data to produce a processed raw SAR data; converting the processed raw SAR data to a complex SAR range profile data; processing the complex SAR range profile data with the RNN having RNN states; and mapping the RNN states to a target class with the multi-layer linear network.
