Semantic segmentation is a significant method in remote sensing image (RSIs) processing and has been widely used in various applications. Conventional convolutional neural network (CNN)-based semantic segmentation methods are likely to lose the spatial information in the feature extraction stage and usually pay little attention to global context information. Moreover, the imbalance of category scale and uncertain boundary information meanwhile exists in RSIs, which also brings a challenging problem to the semantic segmentation task. To overcome these problems, a high-resolution context extraction network (HRCNet) based on a high-resolution network (HRNet) is proposed in this paper. In this approach, the HRNet structure is adopted to keep the spatial information. Moreover, the light-weight dual attention (LDA) module is designed to obtain global context information in the feature extraction stage and the feature enhancement feature pyramid (FEFP) structure is promoted and employed to fuse the contextual information of different scales. In addition, to achieve the boundary information, we design the boundary aware (BA) module combined with the boundary aware loss (BAloss) function. The experimental results evaluated on Potsdam and Vaihingen datasets show that the proposed approach can significantly improve the boundary and segmentation performance up to 92.0% and 92.3% on overall accuracy scores, respectively. As a consequence, it is envisaged that the proposed HRCNet model will be an advantage in remote sensing images segmentation.

Analyzing land cover using remote sensing images has broad prospects, the precise segmentation of land cover is the key to the application of this technology. Nowadays, the Convolution Neural Network (CNN) is widely used in many image semantic segmentation tasks. However, existing CNN models often exhibit poor generalization ability and low segmentation accuracy when dealing with land cover segmentation tasks. To solve this problem, this paper proposes Dual Function Feature Aggregation Network (DFFAN). This method combines image context information, gathers image spatial information, and extracts and fuses features. DFFAN uses residual neural networks as backbone to obtain different dimensional feature information of remote sensing images through multiple downsamplings. This work designs Affinity Matrix Module (AMM) to obtain the context of each feature map and proposes Boundary Feature Fusion Module (BFF) to fuse the context information and spatial information of an image to determine the location distribution of each image’s category. Compared with existing methods, the proposed method is significantly improved in accuracy. Its mean intersection over union (MIoU) on the LandCover dataset reaches 84.81%.

Landslides are a type of frequent and widespread natural disaster. It is of great significance to extract location information from the landslide in time. At present, most articles still select single band or RGB bands as the feature for landslide recognition. To improve the efficiency of landslide recognition, this study proposed a remote sensing recognition method based on the convolutional neural network of the mixed spectral characteristics. Firstly, this paper tried to add NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index) and NIRS (near-infrared spectroscopy) to enhance the features. Then, remote sensing images (predisaster and postdisaster images) with same spatial information but different time series information regarding landslide are taken directly from GF-1 satellite as input images. By combining the 4 bands (red + green + blue + near-infrared) of the prelandslide remote sensing images with the 4 bands of the postlandslide images and NDVI images, images with 9 bands were obtained, and the band values reflecting the changing characteristics of the landslide were determined. Finally, a deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) was introduced to solve the problem. The proposed method was tested and verified with remote sensing data from the 2015 large-scale landslide event in Shanxi, China, and 2016 large-scale landslide event in Fujian, China. The results showed that the accuracy of the method was high. Compared with the traditional methods, the recognition efficiency was improved, proving the effectiveness and feasibility of the method.

Semantic segmentation plays an important role in being able to understand the content of remote sensing images. In recent years, deep learning methods based on Fully Convolutional Networks (FCNs) have proved to be effective for the sematic segmentation of remote sensing images. However, the rich information and complex content makes the training of networks for segmentation challenging, and the datasets are necessarily constrained. In this paper, we propose a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model called Dual Path Attention Network (DPA-Net) that has a simple modular structure and can be added to any segmentation model to enhance its ability to learn features. Two types of attention module are appended to the segmentation model, one focusing on spatial information the other focusing upon the channel. Then, the outputs of these two attention modules are fused to further improve the network’s ability to extract features, thus contributing to more precise segmentation results. Finally, data pre-processing and augmentation strategies are used to compensate for the small number of datasets and uneven distribution. The proposed network was tested on the Gaofen Image Dataset (GID). The results show that the network outperformed U-Net, PSP-Net, and DeepLab V3+ in terms of the mean IoU by 0.84%, 2.54%, and 1.32%, respectively.

Changes on lakes and rivers are of great significance for the study of global climate change. Accurate segmentation of lakes and rivers is critical to the study of their changes. However, traditional water area segmentation methods almost all share the following deficiencies: high computational requirements, poor generalization performance, and low extraction accuracy. In recent years, semantic segmentation algorithms based on deep learning have been emerging. Addressing problems associated to a very large number of parameters, low accuracy, and network degradation during training process, this paper proposes a separable residual SegNet (SR-SegNet) to perform the water area segmentation using remote sensing images. On the one hand, without compromising the ability of feature extraction, the problem of network degradation is alleviated by adding modified residual blocks into the encoder, the number of parameters is limited by introducing depthwise separable convolutions, and the ability of feature extraction is improved by using dilated convolutions to expand the receptive field. On the other hand, SR-SegNet removes the convolution layers with relatively more convolution kernels in the encoding stage, and uses the cascading method to fuse the low-level and high-level features of the image. As a result, the whole network can obtain more spatial information. Experimental results show that the proposed method exhibits significant improvements over several traditional methods, including FCN, DeconvNet, and SegNet.

Enhance spectral fusion quality is the one of most significant targets in the field of remote sensing image fusion. In this paper, a statistical model based fusion method is proposed, which is the improved method for fusing remote sensing images on the basis of the framework of Principal Component Analysis(PCA) and wavelet decomposition-based image fusion. PCA is applied to the source images. In order to retain the entropy information of data, we select the principal component axes based on entropy contribution(ECA). The first entropy component and panchromatic image(PAN) are performed a multiresolution decompositon using wavelet transform. The low frequency subband fused by weighted aggregation approach and high frequency subband fused by statistical model. High resolution multispectral image is then obtained by an inverse wavelet and ECA transform. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can retain the spectral information and spatial information in the fusion of PAN and multi-spectral image(MS).
