Abstract:

Ground-based interferometric synthetic aperture radar (GB-InSAR) can take deformation measurement with a high accuracy. Partition of the GB-InSAR deformation map benefits analyzing the deformation state of the monitoring scene better. Existing partition methods rely on labelled datasets or single deformation feature, and they cannot be effectively utilized in GB-InSAR applications. This paper proposes an improved partition method of the GB-InSAR deformation map based on dynamic time warping (DTW) and k-means. The DTW similarities between a reference point and all the measurement points are calculated based on their time-series deformations. Then the DTW similarity and cumulative deformation are taken as two partition features. With the k-means algorithm and the score based on multi evaluation indexes, a deformation map can be partitioned into an appropriate number of classes. Experimental datasets of West Copper Mine are processed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, whose measurement points are divided into seven classes with a score of 0.315 1.
