Multitemporal remote sensing images of a particular territory might include accidental scene distortions. Scene distortion is a significant local brightness change caused by the scene overlap with some opaque object or a natural phenomenon coincident with the moment of image capture, for example, clouds and shadows. The fact that different images of the scene are obtained at different instants of time makes the appearance, location and shape of scene distortions accidental. In this article we propose an algorithm for detecting accidental scene distortions using a dataset of multitemporal remote sensing images. The algorithm applies superpixel segmentation and anomaly detection methods to get binary images of scene distortion location for each image in the dataset. The algorithm is adapted to handle images with different spectral and spatial sampling parameters, which makes it more multipurpose than the existing solutions. The algorithm's quality was assessed using model images with scene distortions for two remote sensing systems. The experiments showed that the proposed algorithm with the optimal settings can reach a detection accuracy of about 90% and a false detection error of about 10%.

In order to improve the change detection accuracy of multitemporal high spatial resolution remote-sensing (HSRRS) images, a change detection method of multitemporal remote-sensing images based on saliency detection and spatial intuitionistic fuzzy C-means (SIFCM) clustering is proposed. Firstly, the cluster-based saliency cue method is used to obtain the saliency maps of two temporal remote-sensing images; then, the saliency difference is obtained by subtracting the saliency maps of two temporal remote-sensing images; finally, the SIFCM clustering algorithm is used to classify the saliency difference image to obtain the change regions and unchange regions. Two data sets of multitemporal high spatial resolution remote-sensing images are selected as the experimental data. The detection accuracy of the proposed method is 96.17% and 97.89%. The results show that the proposed method is a feasible and better performance multitemporal remote-sensing image change detection method.

AbstractNighttime light remote sensing images show significant application potential in marine ship monitoring, but in areas where ships are densely distributed, the detection accuracy of the current methods is still limited. This article considered the LJ1-01 data as an example, compared with the National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP)/Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) data, and explored the application of high-resolution nighttime light images in marine ship detection. The radiation values of the aforementioned two images were corrected to achieve consistency, and the interference light sources of the ship light were filtered. Then, when the threshold segmentation and two-parameter constant false alarm rate methods are combined, the ships’ location information was with obtained, and the reliability of the results was analyzed. The results show that the LJ1-01 data can not only record more potential ship light but also distinguish the ship light and background noise in the data. The detection accuracy of the LJ1-01 data in both ship detection methods is significantly higher than that of the NPP/VIIRS data. This study analyzes the characteristics, performance, and application potential of the high-resolution nighttime light data in the detection of marine vessels. The relevant results can provide a reference for the high-precision monitoring of nighttime marine ships.

Target detection in remote sensing images is very challenging research. Followed by the recent development of deep learning, the target detection algorithm has obtained large and fast growth. However, in the application of remote sensing images, due to the small target, wide range, small texture, and complex background, the existing target detection methods cannot achieve people’s hope. In this paper, a target detection algorithm named IR-PANet for remote sensing images of an automobile is proposed. In the backbone network CSPDarknet53, SPP is used to strengthen the learning content. Then, IR-PANet is used as the neck network. After the upper sampling, depthwise separable convolution is used to greatly avoid the lack of small target feature information in the convolution of the shallow network and increase the semantic information in the high-level network. Finally, Gamma correction is used to preprocess the image before image training, which effectively reduces the interference of shadow and other factors on training. The experiment proves that the method has a better effect on small targets obscured by shadows and under the color similar to the background of the picture, and the accuracy is significantly improved based on the original algorithm.

Ship detection is an important but challenging task in the field of computer vision, partially due to the minuscule ship objects in optical remote sensing images and the interference of clouds occlusion and strong waves. Most of the current ship detection methods focus on boosting detection accuracy while they may ignore the detection speed. However, it is also indispensable to increase ship detection speed because it can provide timely ocean rescue and maritime surveillance. To solve the above problems, we propose an improved YOLOv3 (ImYOLOv3) based on attention mechanism, aiming to achieve the best trade-off between detection accuracy and speed. First, to realize high-efficiency ship detection, we adopt the off-the-shelf YOLOv3 as our basic detection framework due to its fast speed. Second, to boost the performance of original YOLOv3 for small ships, we design a novel and lightweight dilated attention module (DAM) to extract discriminative features for ship targets, which can be easily embedded into the basic YOLOv3. The integrated attention mechanism can help our model learn to suppress irrelevant regions while highlighting salient features useful for ship detection task. Furthermore, we introduce a multi-class ship dataset (MSD) and explicitly set supervised subclass according to the scales and moving states of ships. Extensive experiments verify the effectiveness and robustness of ImYOLOv3, and show that our method can accurately detect ships with different scales in different backgrounds, while at a real-time speed.

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has become one of the important technical means of marine monitoring in the field of remote sensing due to its all-day, all-weather advantage. National territorial waters to achieve ship monitoring is conducive to national maritime law enforcement, implementation of maritime traffic control, and maintenance of national maritime security, so ship detection has been a hot spot and focus of research. After the development from traditional detection methods to deep learning combined methods, most of the research always based on the evolving Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) computing power to propose more complex and computationally intensive strategies, while in the process of transplanting optical image detection ignored the low signal-to-noise ratio, low resolution, single-channel and other characteristics brought by the SAR image imaging principle. Constantly pursuing detection accuracy while ignoring the detection speed and the ultimate application of the algorithm, almost all algorithms rely on powerful clustered desktop GPUs, which cannot be implemented on the frontline of marine monitoring to cope with the changing realities. To address these issues, this paper proposes a multi-channel fusion SAR image processing method that makes full use of image information and the network’s ability to extract features; it is also based on the latest You Only Look Once version 4 (YOLO-V4) deep learning framework for modeling architecture and training models. The YOLO-V4-light network was tailored for real-time and implementation, significantly reducing the model size, detection time, number of computational parameters, and memory consumption, and refining the network for three-channel images to compensate for the loss of accuracy due to light-weighting. The test experiments were completed entirely on a portable computer and achieved an Average Precision (AP) of 90.37% on the SAR Ship Detection Dataset (SSDD), simplifying the model while ensuring a lead over most existing methods. The YOLO-V4-lightship detection algorithm proposed in this paper has great practical application in maritime safety monitoring and emergency rescue.

AbstractIn order to monitor the high-level landslides frequently occurring in Jinsha River area of Southwest China, and protect the lives and property safety of people in mountainous areas, the data of satellite remote sensing images are combined with various factors inducing landslides and transformed into landslide influence factors, which provides data basis for the establishment of landslide detection model. Then, based on the deep belief networks (DBN) and convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm, two landslide detection models DBN and convolutional neural-deep belief network (CDN) are established to monitor the high-level landslide in Jinsha River. The influence of the model parameters on the landslide detection results is analyzed, and the accuracy of DBN and CDN models in dealing with actual landslide problems is compared. The results show that when the number of neurons in the DBN is 100, the overall error is the minimum, and when the number of learning layers is 3, the classification error is the minimum. The detection accuracy of DBN and CDN is 97.56% and 97.63%, respectively, which indicates that both DBN and CDN models are feasible in dealing with landslides from remote sensing images. This exploration provides a reference for the study of high-level landslide disasters in Jinsha River.

AbstractOcclusion removal is a significant problem to be resolved in a remote traffic control system to enhance road safety. However, the conventional techniques do not recognize traffic signs well due to the vehicles are occluded. Besides occlusion removal was not performed in existing techniques with a less amount of time. In order to overcome such limitations, Non-linear Gaussian Bilateral Filtered Sorenson–Dice Exemplar Image Inpainting Based Bayes Conditional Probability (NGBFSEII-BCP) Method is proposed. Initially, a number of remote sensing images are taken as input from Highway Traffic Dataset. Then, the NGBFSEII-BCP method applies the Non-Linear Gaussian Bilateral Filtering (NGBF) algorithm for removing the noise pixels in input images. After preprocessing, the NGBFSEII-BCP method is used to remove the occlusion in the input images. Finally, NGBFSEII-BCP Method applies Bayes conditional probability to find operation status and thereby gets higher road safety using remote sensing images. The technique conducts the simulation evaluation using metrics such as peak signal to noise ratio, computational time, and detection accuracy. The simulation result illustrates that the NGBFSEII-BCP Method increases the detection accuracy by 20% and reduces the computation time by 32% as compared to state-of-the-art works.
