It is difficult to segment small objects and the edge of the object because of larger-scale variation, larger intra-class variance of background and foreground-background imbalance in the remote sensing imagery. In convolutional neural networks, high frequency signals may degenerate into completely different ones after downsampling. We define this phenomenon as aliasing. Meanwhile, although dilated convolution can expand the receptive field of feature map, a much more complex background can cause serious alarms. To alleviate the above problems, we propose an attention-based mechanism adaptive filtered segmentation network. Experimental results on the Deepglobe Road Extraction dataset and Inria Aerial Image Labeling dataset showed that our method can effectively improve the segmentation accuracy. The F1 value on the two data sets reached 82.67% and 85.71% respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
