Weakly Supervised Network with Scribble-Supervised and Edge-Mask for Road Extraction from High-Resolution Remote Sensing Images

Significant advancements have been achieved in road surface extraction based on high-resolution remote sensingimage processing. Most current methods rely on fully supervised learning, which necessitates enormous humaneffort to label the image. Within this field, other research endeavors utilize weakly supervised methods. Theseapproaches aim to reduce the expenses associated with annotation by leveraging sparsely annotated data, such asscribbles. This paper presents a novel technique called a weakly supervised network using scribble-supervised andedge-mask (WSSE-net). This network is a three-branch network architecture, whereby each branch is equippedwith a distinct decoder module dedicated to road extraction tasks. One of the branches is dedicated to generatingedge masks using edge detection algorithms and optimizing road edge details. The other two branches supervise themodel’s training by employing scribble labels and spreading scribble information throughout the image. To addressthe historical flaw that created pseudo-labels that are not updated with network training, we use mixup to blendprediction results dynamically and continually update new pseudo-labels to steer network training. Our solutiondemonstrates efficient operation by simultaneously considering both edge-mask aid and dynamic pseudo-labelsupport. The studies are conducted on three separate road datasets, which consist primarily of high-resolutionremote-sensing satellite photos and drone images. The experimental findings suggest that our methodologyperforms better than advanced scribble-supervised approaches and specific traditional fully supervised methods.

To create a green and healthy living environment,people have put forward higher requirements for the refined management of ecological resources.A variety of technologies,including satellite remote sensing,Internet of Things,artificial intelligence,and big data,can build a smart environmental monitoring system.Remote sensing image classification is an important research content in ecological environmental monitoring.Remote sensing images contain rich spatial information andmulti-temporal information,but also bring challenges such as difficulty in obtaining classification labels and low classification accuracy.To solve this problem,this study develops a transductive transfer dictionary learning(TTDL)algorithm.In the TTDL,the source and target domains are transformed fromthe original sample space to a common subspace.TTDL trains a shared discriminative dictionary in this subspace,establishes associations between domains,and also obtains sparse representations of source and target domain data.To obtain an effective shared discriminative dictionary,triple-induced ordinal locality preserving term,Fisher discriminant term,and graph Laplacian regularization termare introduced into the TTDL.The triplet-induced ordinal locality preserving term on sub-space projection preserves the local structure of data in low-dimensional subspaces.The Fisher discriminant term on dictionary improves differences among different sub-dictionaries through intra-class and inter-class scatters.The graph Laplacian regularization term on sparse representation maintains the manifold structure using a semi-supervised weight graphmatrix,which can indirectly improve the discriminative performance of the dictionary.The TTDL is tested on several remote sensing image datasets and has strong discrimination classification performance.

Semantic segmentation of remote sensing images is one of the core tasks of remote sensing image interpretation.With the continuous develop-ment of artificial intelligence technology,the use of deep learning methods for interpreting remote-sensing images has matured.Existing neural networks disregard the spatial relationship between two targets in remote sensing images.Semantic segmentation models that combine convolutional neural networks(CNNs)and graph convolutional neural networks(GCNs)cause a lack of feature boundaries,which leads to the unsatisfactory segmentation of various target feature boundaries.In this paper,we propose a new semantic segmentation model for remote sensing images(called DGCN hereinafter),which combines deep semantic segmentation networks(DSSN)and GCNs.In the GCN module,a loss function for boundary information is employed to optimize the learning of spatial relationship features between the target features and their relationships.A hierarchical fusion method is utilized for feature fusion and classification to optimize the spatial relationship informa-tion in the original feature information.Extensive experiments on ISPRS 2D and DeepGlobe semantic segmentation datasets show that compared with the existing semantic segmentation models of remote sensing images,the DGCN significantly optimizes the segmentation effect of feature boundaries,effectively reduces the noise in the segmentation results and improves the segmentation accuracy,which demonstrates the advancements of our model.

The Earth observation remote sensing images can display ground activities and status intuitively,which plays an important role in civil and military fields.However,the information obtained from the research only from the perspective of images is limited,so in this paper we conduct research from the perspective of video.At present,the main problems faced when using a computer to identify remote sensing images are:They are difficult to build a fixed regular model of the target due to their weak moving regularity.Additionally,the number of pixels occupied by the target is not enough for accurate detection.However,the number of moving targets is large at the same time.In this case,the main targets cannot be recognized completely.This paper studies from the perspective of Gestalt vision,transforms the problem ofmoving target detection into the problem of salient region probability,and forms a Saliency map algorithm to extract moving targets.On this basis,a convolutional neural network with global information is constructed to identify and label the target.And the experimental results show that the algorithm can extract moving targets and realize moving target recognition under many complex conditions such as target’s long-term stay and small-amplitude movement.
