Ship Classification

Fine-grained visual categorization (FGVC) is an important and challenging problem due to large intra-class differences and small inter-class differences caused by deformation, illumination, angles, etc. Although major advances have been achieved in natural images in the past few years due to the release of popular datasets such as the CUB-200-2011, Stanford Cars and Aircraft datasets, fine-grained ship classification in remote sensing images has been rarely studied because of relative scarcity of publicly available datasets. In this paper, we investigate a large amount of remote sensing image data of sea ships and determine most common 42 categories for fine-grained visual categorization. Based our previous DSCR dataset, a dataset for ship classification in remote sensing images, we collect more remote sensing images containing warships and civilian ships of various scales from Google Earth and other popular remote sensing image datasets including DOTA, HRSC2016, NWPU VHR-10, We call our dataset FGSCR-42, meaning a dataset for Fine-Grained Ship Classification in Remote sensing images with 42 categories. The whole dataset of FGSCR-42 contains 9320 images of most common types of ships. We evaluate popular object classification algorithms and fine-grained visual categorization algorithms to build a benchmark. Our FGSCR-42 dataset is publicly available at our webpages.

The South China Karst, a United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) natural heritage site, is one of the world’s most spectacular examples of humid tropical to subtropical karst landscapes. The Libo cone karst in the southern Guizhou Province is considered as the world reference site for these types of karst, forming a distinctive and beautiful landscape. Geomorphic information and spatial distribution of cone karst is essential for conservation and management for Libo heritage site. In this study, a deep learning (DL) method based on DeepLab V3+ network was proposed to document the cone karst landscape in Libo by multi-source data, including optical remote sensing images and digital elevation model (DEM) data. The training samples were generated by using Landsat remote sensing images and their combination with satellite derived DEM data. Each group of training dataset contains 898 samples. The input module of DeepLab V3+ network was improved to accept four-channel input data, i.e., combination of Landsat RGB images and DEM data. Our results suggest that the mean intersection over union (MIoU) using the four-channel data as training samples by a new DL-based pixel-level image segmentation approach is the highest, which can reach 95.5%. The proposed method can accomplish automatic extraction of cone karst landscape by self-learning of deep neural network, and therefore it can also provide a powerful and automatic tool for documenting other type of geological landscapes worldwide.

Segmentation Methods

Deep learning models have brought great breakthroughs in building extraction from high-resolution optical remote-sensing images. Among recent research, the self-attention module has called up a storm in many fields, including building extraction. However, most current deep learning models loading with the self-attention module still lose sight of the reconstruction bias’s effectiveness. Through tipping the balance between the abilities of encoding and decoding, i.e., making the decoding network be much more complex than the encoding network, the semantic segmentation ability will be reinforced. To remedy the research weakness in combing self-attention and reconstruction-bias modules for building extraction, this paper presents a U-Net architecture that combines self-attention and reconstruction-bias modules. In the encoding part, a self-attention module is added to learn the attention weights of the inputs. Through the self-attention module, the network will pay more attention to positions where there may be salient regions. In the decoding part, multiple large convolutional up-sampling operations are used for increasing the reconstruction ability. We test our model on two open available datasets: the WHU and Massachusetts Building datasets. We achieve IoU scores of 89.39% and 73.49% for the WHU and Massachusetts Building datasets, respectively. Compared with several recently famous semantic segmentation methods and representative building extraction methods, our method’s results are satisfactory.
