Experimental results on subsurface detection ratio (signal-only hypothesis) for the different data sets and AQ, DM, and SP regions radargrams examples. a Subsurface detection ratio, defined as the number of subsurface features correctly classified as subsurface versus the total number of detected features, at each given subsurface depth. The plot highlights the difference in subsurface detection ratio performance between a volcanic and an icy region due to the different subsurface attenuation values. b Typical radargram for the AQ region. The subsurface stratigraphy is such that the features are clustered around an average equivalent depths of 100 m. c Typical radargram for the DM region. The subsurface features are clustered around an average equivalent depth of 450 m. d Typical radargram for the SP region. The typical subsurface layering structure of this region allows the computation of statistics to be performed from 50 to 750 m depth
