DFPENet-geology: A Deep Learning Framework for High Precision Recognition and Segmentation of Co-seismic Landslides
The following lists two main reasons for withdrawal for the public. 1. There
are some problems in the method and results, and there is a lot of room for
improvement. In terms of method, "Pre-trained Datasets (PD)" represents
selecting a small amount from the online test set, which easily causes the
model to overfit the online test set and could not obtain robust performance.
More importantly, the proposed DFPENet has a high redundancy by combining the
Attention Gate Mechanism and Gate Convolution Networks, and we need to revisit
the section of geological feature fusion, in terms of results, we need to
further improve and refine. 2. arXiv is an open-access repository of electronic
preprints without peer reviews. However, for our own research, we need experts
to provide comments on my work whether negative or positive. I then would use
their comments to significantly improve this manuscript. Therefore, we finally
decided to withdraw this manuscript in arXiv, and we will update to arXiv with
the final accepted manuscript to facilitate more researchers to use our
proposed comprehensive and general scheme to recognize and segment seismic
landslides more efficiently.Comment: 1. There are some problems in the method and results, and there is a

A Hyper-pixel-wise Contrastive Learning Augmented Segmentation Network for Old Landslide Detection Using High-Resolution Remote Sensing Images and Digital Elevation Model Data
As a harzard disaster, landslide often brings tremendous losses to humanity,
so it's necessary to achieve reliable detection of landslide. However, the
problems of visual blur and small-sized dataset cause great challenges for old
landslide detection task when using remote sensing data. To reliably extract
semantic features, a hyper-pixel-wise contrastive learning augmented
segmentation network (HPCL-Net) is proposed, which augments the local salient
feature extraction from the boundaries of landslides through HPCL and fuses the
heterogeneous infromation in the semantic space from High-Resolution Remote
Sensing Images and Digital Elevation Model Data data. For full utilization of
the precious samples, a global hyper-pixel-wise sample pair queues-based
contrastive learning method, which includes the construction of global queues
that store hyper-pixel-wise samples and the updating scheme of a momentum
encoder, is developed, reliably enhancing the extraction ability of semantic
features. The proposed HPCL-Net is evaluated on a Loess Plateau old landslide
dataset and experiment results show that the model greatly improves the
reliablity of old landslide detection compared to the previous old landslide
segmentation model, where mIoU metric is increased from 0.620 to 0.651,
Landslide IoU metric is increased from 0.334 to 0.394 and F1-score metric is
increased from 0.501 to 0.565
An Iterative Classification and Semantic Segmentation Network for Old Landslide Detection Using High-Resolution Remote Sensing Images
Huge challenges exist for old landslide detection because their morphology
features have been partially or strongly transformed over a long time and have
little difference from their surrounding. Besides, small-sample problem also
restrict in-depth learning.
In this paper, an iterative classification and semantic segmentation network
(ICSSN) is developed, which can greatly enhance both object-level and
pixel-level classification performance by iteratively upgrading the feature
extractor shared by two network. An object-level contrastive learning (OCL)
strategy is employed in the object classification sub-network featuring a
siamese network to realize the global features extraction, and a
sub-object-level contrastive learning (SOCL) paradigm is designed in the
semantic segmentation sub-network to efficiently extract salient features from
boundaries of landslides. Moreover, an iterative training strategy is
elaborated to fuse features in semantic space such that both object-level and
pixel-level classification performance are improved.
The proposed ICSSN is evaluated on the real landslide data set, and the
experimental results show that ICSSN can greatly improve the classification and
segmentation accuracy of old landslide detection. For the semantic segmentation
task, compared to the baseline, the F1 score increases from 0.5054 to 0.5448,
the mIoU improves from 0.6405 to 0.6610, the landslide IoU improved from 0.3381
to 0.3743, and the object-level detection accuracy of old landslides is
enhanced from 0.55 to 0.9. For the object classification task, the F1 score
increases from 0.8846 to 0.9230, and the accuracy score is up from 0.8375 to
0.8875
Very High Resolution (VHR) Satellite Imagery: Processing and Applications
Recently, growing interest in the use of remote sensing imagery has appeared to provide synoptic maps of water quality parameters in coastal and inner water ecosystems;, monitoring of complex land ecosystems for biodiversity conservation; precision agriculture for the management of soils, crops, and pests; urban planning; disaster monitoring, etc. However, for these maps to achieve their full potential, it is important to engage in periodic monitoring and analysis of multi-temporal changes. In this context, very high resolution (VHR) satellite-based optical, infrared, and radar imaging instruments provide reliable information to implement spatially-based conservation actions. Moreover, they enable observations of parameters of our environment at greater broader spatial and finer temporal scales than those allowed through field observation alone. In this sense, recent very high resolution satellite technologies and image processing algorithms present the opportunity to develop quantitative techniques that have the potential to improve upon traditional techniques in terms of cost, mapping fidelity, and objectivity. Typical applications include multi-temporal classification, recognition and tracking of specific patterns, multisensor data fusion, analysis of land/marine ecosystem processes and environment monitoring, etc. This book aims to collect new developments, methodologies, and applications of very high resolution satellite data for remote sensing. The works selected provide to the research community the most recent advances on all aspects of VHR satellite remote sensing
UCDFormer: Unsupervised Change Detection Using a Transformer-driven Image Translation
Change detection (CD) by comparing two bi-temporal images is a crucial task
in remote sensing. With the advantages of requiring no cumbersome labeled
change information, unsupervised CD has attracted extensive attention in the
community. However, existing unsupervised CD approaches rarely consider the
seasonal and style differences incurred by the illumination and atmospheric
conditions in multi-temporal images. To this end, we propose a change detection
with domain shift setting for remote sensing images. Furthermore, we present a
novel unsupervised CD method using a light-weight transformer, called
UCDFormer. Specifically, a transformer-driven image translation composed of a
light-weight transformer and a domain-specific affinity weight is first
proposed to mitigate domain shift between two images with real-time efficiency.
After image translation, we can generate the difference map between the
translated before-event image and the original after-event image. Then, a novel
reliable pixel extraction module is proposed to select significantly
changed/unchanged pixel positions by fusing the pseudo change maps of fuzzy
c-means clustering and adaptive threshold. Finally, a binary change map is
obtained based on these selected pixel pairs and a binary classifier.
Experimental results on different unsupervised CD tasks with seasonal and style
changes demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed UCDFormer. For example,
compared with several other related methods, UCDFormer improves performance on
the Kappa coefficient by more than 12\%. In addition, UCDFormer achieves
excellent performance for earthquake-induced landslide detection when
considering large-scale applications. The code is available at
