The semantic segmentation of remote sensing images faces two major challenges: high inter-class similarity and interference from ubiquitous shadows. In order to address these issues, we develop a novel edge loss reinforced semantic segmentation network (ERN) that leverages the spatial boundary context to reduce the semantic ambiguity. The main contributions of this paper are as follows: (1) we propose a novel end-to-end semantic segmentation network for remote sensing, which involves multiple weighted edge supervisions to retain spatial boundary information; (2) the main representations of the network are shared between the edge loss reinforced structures and semantic segmentation, which means that the ERN simultaneously achieves semantic segmentation and edge detection without significantly increasing the model complexity; and (3) we explore and discuss different ERN schemes to guide the design of future networks. Extensive experimental results on two remote sensing datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach both in quantitative and qualitative evaluation. Specifically, the semantic segmentation performance in shadow-affected regions is significantly improved.

Most of multi-scale segmentation algorithms are not aiming at high resolution remote sensing images and have difficulty to communicate and use layers’ information. In view of them, we proposes a method of multi-scale segmentation of high resolution remote sensing images by integrating multiple features. First, Canny operator is used to extract edge information, and then band weighted distance function is built to obtain the edge weight. According to the criterion, the initial segmentation objects of color images can be gained by Kruskal minimum spanning tree algorithm. Finally segmentation images are got by the adaptive rule of Mumford–Shah region merging combination with spectral and texture information. The proposed method is evaluated precisely using analog images and ZY-3 satellite images through quantitative and qualitative analysis. The experimental results show that the multi-scale segmentation of high resolution remote sensing images by integrating multiple features outperformed the software eCognition fractal network evolution algorithm (highest-resolution network evolution that FNEA) on the accuracy and slightly inferior to FNEA on the efficiency.

This article proposes a new building extraction method from high-resolution remote sensing images, based on GrabCut, which can automatically select foreground and background samples under the constraints of building elevation contour lines. First the image is rotated according to the direction of pixel displacement calculated by the rational function Model. Second, the Canny operator, combined with morphology and the Hough transform, is used to extract the building's elevation contour lines. Third, seed points and interesting points of the building are selected under the constraint of the contour line and the geodesic distance. Then foreground and background samples are obtained according to these points. Fourth, GrabCut and geometric features are used to carry out image segmentation and extract buildings. Finally, WorldView satellite images are used to verify the proposed method. Experimental results show that the average accuracy can reach 86.34%, which is 15.12% higher than other building extraction methods.

In this paper, data mining theory is applied to carry out the field of the pretreatment of remote sensing images. These results show that it is an effective method for carrying out the pretreatment of low-precision remote sensing images by multisource image matching algorithm with SIFT operator, geometric correction on satellite images at scarce control points, and other techniques; the result of the coastline extracted by the edge detection method based on a chromatic aberration Canny operator has a height coincident with the actual measured result; we found that the coastline length of China is predicted to increase in the future by using the grey prediction method, with the total length reaching up to 19,471,983 m by 2015.
