Change detection (CD) is one of the essential tasks in remote sensing image processing and analysis. Remote sensing CD is a process of determining and evaluating changes in various surface objects over time. The impressive achievements of deep learning in image processing and computer vision provide an innovative concept for the task of CD. However, existing methods based on deep learning still have problems detecting small changed regions correctly and distinguishing the boundaries of the changed regions. To solve the above shortcomings and improve the efficiency of CD networks, inspired by the fact that an attention mechanism can refine features effectively, we propose an attention-based network for remote sensing CD, which has two important components: an asymmetric convolution block (ACB) and a combined attention mechanism. First, the proposed method extracts the features of bi-temporal images, which contain two parallel encoders with shared weights and structures. Then, the feature maps are fed into the combined attention module to reconstruct the change maps and obtain refined feature maps. The proposed CANet is evaluated on the two publicly available datasets for challenging remote sensing image CD. Extensive empirical results with four popular metrics show that the designed framework yields a robust CD detector with good generalization performance. In the CDD and LEVIR-CD datasets, the F1 values of the CANet are 3.3% and 1.3% higher than those of advanced CD methods, respectively. A quantitative analysis and qualitative comparison indicate that our method outperforms competitive baselines in terms of both effectiveness and robustness.

With the development of science and technology, neural networks, as an effective tool in image processing, play an important role in gradual remote-sensing image-processing. However, the training of neural networks requires a large sample database. Therefore, expanding datasets with limited samples has gradually become a research hotspot. The emergence of the generative adversarial network (GAN) provides new ideas for data expansion. Traditional GANs either require a large number of input data, or lack detail in the pictures generated. In this paper, we modify a shuffle attention network and introduce it into GAN to generate higher quality pictures with limited inputs. In addition, we improved the existing resize method and proposed an equal stretch resize method to solve the problem of image distortion caused by different input sizes. In the experiment, we also embed the newly proposed coordinate attention (CA) module into the backbone network as a control test. Qualitative indexes and six quantitative evaluation indexes were used to evaluate the experimental results, which show that, compared with other GANs used for picture generation, the modified Shuffle Attention GAN proposed in this paper can generate more refined and high-quality diversified aircraft pictures with more detailed features of the object under limited datasets.
