Abstract: The uncertainty and confrontational nature of war itself pose significant challenges to the collection and storage of aerial battlefield temporal data. To address the issue of insufficient training of intelligent models caused by the scarcity of air battlefield situation data, this paper designs an air battlefield time series data augmentation model based on a lightweight denoising diffusion probabilistic model (LDMKD-DA). Considering the advantages of a denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM) in processing images, this paper transforms 1D time series data into image data. 1D univariate time series data, such as High-resolution Range Profile dataset, are transformed by Gramian angular fields and Markov transition fields. Multivariate time series data, such as the air target intention dataset, are transformed by matrix expansion. Then, the data augmentation model is constructed based on the denoising diffusion probabilistic model. Considering the need for miniaturization and intelligence in future combat platforms, the depthwise separable convolution is introduced to lighten the DDPM, and, at the same time, the improved knowledge distillation method is introduced to accelerate the sampling process. The experimental results show that LDMKD-DA is capable of generating synthetic data similar to real data with high quality while significantly reducing FLOPs and params, while having significant advantages in univariate and multivariate time series data amplification.
