Visual Attention Mechanism

At present, reliable and precise ship detection in high-resolution optical remote sensing images affected by wave clutter, thin clouds, and islands under complex sea conditions is still challenging. At the same time, object detection algorithms in satellite remote sensing images are challenged by color, aspect ratio, complex background, and angle variability. Even the results obtained based on the latest convolutional neural network (CNN) method are not satisfactory. In order to obtain more accurate ship detection results, this paper proposes a remote sensing image ship object detection method based on a brainlike visual attention mechanism. We refer to the robust expression mode of the human brain, design a vector field filter with active rotation capability, and explicitly encode the direction information of the remote sensing object in the neural network. The progressive enhancement learning model guided by the visual attention mechanism is used to dynamically solve the problem, and the object can be discovered and detected through time–space information. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, a remote sensing ship object detection data set is established, and the proposed method is compared with other state-of-the-art methods on the established data set. Experiments show that the object detection accuracy of this method and the ability to capture image details have been improved. Compared with other models, the average intersection rate of the joint is 80.12%, which shows a clear advantage. The proposed method is fast enough to meet the needs of ship detection in remote sensing images.

Real Time Detection

Compared with ordinary images, each of the remote sensing images contains many kinds of objects with large scale changes, providing more details. As a typical object of remote sensing image, ship detection has been playing an essential role in the field of remote sensing. With the rapid development of deep learning, remote sensing image detection method based on convolutional neural network (CNN) has occupied a key position. In remote sensing images, the objects of which small scale objects account for a large proportion are closely arranged. In addition, the convolution layer in CNN lacks ample context information, leading to low detection accuracy for remote sensing image detection. To improve detection accuracy and keep the speed of real-time detection, this paper proposed an efficient object detection algorithm for ship detection of remote sensing image based on improved SSD. Firstly, we add a feature fusion module to shallow feature layers to refine feature extraction ability of small object. Then, we add Squeeze-and-Excitation Network (SE) module to each feature layers, introducing attention mechanism to network. The experimental results based on Synthetic Aperture Radar ship detection dataset (SSDD) show that the mAP reaches 94.41%, and the average detection speed is 31FPS. Compared with SSD and other representative object detection algorithms, this improved algorithm has a better performance in detection accuracy and can realize real-time detection.

Under complex sea conditions, ship detection from remote sensing images is easily affected by sea clutter, thin clouds, and islands, resulting in unreliable detection results. In this paper, an end-to-end convolution neural network method is introduced that combines a deep convolution neural network with a fully connected conditional random field. Based on the Resnet architecture, the remote sensing image is roughly segmented using a deep convolution neural network as the input. Using the Gaussian pairwise potential method and mean field approximation theorem, a conditional random field is established as the output of the recurrent neural network, thus achieving end-to-end connection. We compared the proposed method with other state-of-the-art methods on the dataset established by Google Earth and NWPU-RESISC45. Experiments show that the target detection accuracy of the proposed method and the ability of capturing fine details of images are improved. The mean intersection over union is 83.2% compared with other models, which indicates obvious advantages. The proposed method is fast enough to meet the needs for ship detection in remote sensing images.

Landslide recognition is widely used in natural disaster risk management. Traditional landslide recognition is mainly conducted by geologists, which is accurate but inefficient. This article introduces multiple instance learning (MIL) to perform automatic landslide recognition. An end-to-end deep convolutional neural network is proposed, referred to as Multiple Instance Learning–based Landslide classification (MILL). First, MILL uses a large-scale remote sensing image classification dataset to build pre-train networks for landslide feature extraction. Second, MILL extracts instances and assign instance labels without pixel-level annotations. Third, MILL uses a new channel attention–based MIL pooling function to map instance-level labels to bag-level label. We apply MIL to detect landslides in a loess area. Experimental results demonstrate that MILL is effective in identifying landslides in remote sensing images.

The segmentation of remote sensing images by deep learning technology is the main method for remote sensing image interpretation. However, the segmentation model based on a convolutional neural network cannot capture the global features very well. A transformer, whose self-attention mechanism can supply each pixel with a global feature, makes up for the deficiency of the convolutional neural network. Therefore, a multi-scale adaptive segmentation network model (MSST-Net) based on a Swin Transformer is proposed in this paper. Firstly, a Swin Transformer is used as the backbone to encode the input image. Then, the feature maps of different levels are decoded separately. Thirdly, the convolution is used for fusion, so that the network can automatically learn the weight of the decoding results of each level. Finally, we adjust the channels to obtain the final prediction map by using the convolution with a kernel of 1 × 1. By comparing this with other segmentation network models on a WHU building data set, the evaluation metrics, mIoU, F1-score and accuracy are all improved. The network model proposed in this paper is a multi-scale adaptive network model that pays more attention to the global features for remote sensing segmentation.
