Recent developments in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have allowed for the achievement of solid advances in semantic segmentation of high-resolution remote sensing (HRRS) images. Nevertheless, the problems of poor classification of small objects and unclear boundaries caused by the characteristics of the HRRS image data have not been fully considered by previous works. To tackle these challenging problems, we propose an improved semantic segmentation neural network, which adopts dilated convolution, a fully connected (FC) fusion path and pre-trained encoder for the semantic segmentation task of HRRS imagery. The network is built with the computationally-efficient DeepLabv3 architecture, with added Augmented Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pool and FC Fusion Path layers. Dilated convolution enlarges the receptive field of feature points without decreasing the feature map resolution. The improved neural network architecture enhances HRRS image segmentation, reaching the classification accuracy of 91%, and the precision of recognition of small objects is improved. The applicability of the improved model to the remote sensing image segmentation task is verified.

Inspired by the outstanding achievement of deep learning, supervised deep learning representation methods for high-spatial-resolution remote sensing image scene classification obtained state-of-the-art performance. However, supervised deep learning representation methods need a considerable amount of labeled data to capture class-specific features, limiting the application of deep learning-based methods while there are a few labeled training samples. An unsupervised deep learning representation, high-resolution remote sensing image scene classification method is proposed in this work to address this issue. The proposed method, called contrastive learning, narrows the distance between positive views: color channels belonging to the same images widens the gaps between negative view pairs consisting of color channels from different images to obtain class-specific data representations of the input data without any supervised information. The classifier uses extracted features by the convolutional neural network (CNN)-based feature extractor with labeled information of training data to set space of each category and then, using linear regression, makes predictions in the testing procedure. Comparing with existing unsupervised deep learning representation high-resolution remote sensing image scene classification methods, contrastive learning CNN achieves state-of-the-art performance on three different scale benchmark data sets: small scale RSSCN7 data set, midscale aerial image data set, and large-scale NWPU-RESISC45 data set.

High-resolution remote sensing images usually contain complex semantic information and confusing targets, so their semantic segmentation is an important and challenging task. To resolve the problem of inadequate utilization of multilayer features by existing methods, a semantic segmentation method for remote sensing images based on convolutional neural network and mask generation is proposed. In this method, the boundary box is used as the initial foreground segmentation profile, and the edge information of the foreground object is obtained by using the multilayer feature of the convolutional neural network. In order to obtain the rough object segmentation mask, the general shape and position of the foreground object are estimated by using the high-level features in the process of layer-by-layer iteration. Then, based on the obtained rough mask, the mask is updated layer by layer using the neural network characteristics to obtain a more accurate mask. In order to solve the difficulty of deep neural network training and the problem of degeneration after convergence, a framework based on residual learning was adopted, which can simplify the training of those very deep networks and improve the accuracy of the network. For comparison with other advanced algorithms, the proposed algorithm was tested on the Potsdam and Vaihingen datasets. Experimental results show that, compared with other algorithms, the algorithm in this article can effectively improve the overall precision of semantic segmentation of high-resolution remote sensing images and shorten the overall training time and segmentation time.
