研究目的
To address the problem of detecting buildings from remote sensing images with very high resolution (VHR) by leveraging geometric saliency, as traditional methods based on texture, spectrum, or learning approaches have limitations in accuracy and generalization.
研究成果
The proposed geometric saliency-based method for building detection in VHR remote sensing images achieves substantial performance improvement and generalizes well across different datasets. It provides clearer building boundaries and fewer redundant areas compared to existing methods, and is unsupervised without requiring training samples.
研究不足
In VHR remote sensing images, some man-made architectures or objects (e.g., cars) may also exhibit salient geometrical structures, which may lead to false detections. Prior information such as object size ratios could be used to suppress false alarms, and incorporating different kinds of information might improve detection accuracy.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The method involves computing a geometric building index (GBI) based on geometric saliency derived from mid-level geometric representations using junctions. It includes detecting junctions with an anisotropic-scale junction (ASJ) detector, decomposing them into L-junctions, and computing first-order and pairwise geometric saliency.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Three public datasets are used: Spacenet-65 Dataset (65 images, 2000x2000 pixels,
3:5m resolution), Potsdam Dataset (214 images, 2000x2000 pixels, 05m resolution), and Massachusetts Buildings Dataset (10 test images, 1500x1500 pixels, 1m resolution). List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
No specific equipment or materials are mentioned; the method is computational and relies on image data.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Steps include converting multi-spectral images to luminance channel, detecting junctions, computing saliency measures, integrating to form GBI, and thresholding for building detection.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Quantitative evaluation using mean Average Precision (mAP) and F-score (F-measure) to compare with state-of-the-art methods (BASI, MBI, PBI, HF-FCN).
