Domain Adaptive Transfer Attack (DATA)-based Segmentation Networks for Building Extraction from Aerial Images
Semantic segmentation models based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs)
have gained much attention in relation to remote sensing and have achieved
remarkable performance for the extraction of buildings from high-resolution
aerial images. However, the issue of limited generalization for unseen images
remains. When there is a domain gap between the training and test datasets,
CNN-based segmentation models trained by a training dataset fail to segment
buildings for the test dataset. In this paper, we propose segmentation networks
based on a domain adaptive transfer attack (DATA) scheme for building
extraction from aerial images. The proposed system combines the domain transfer
and adversarial attack concepts. Based on the DATA scheme, the distribution of
the input images can be shifted to that of the target images while turning
images into adversarial examples against a target network. Defending
adversarial examples adapted to the target domain can overcome the performance
degradation due to the domain gap and increase the robustness of the
segmentation model. Cross-dataset experiments and the ablation study are
conducted for the three different datasets: the Inria aerial image labeling
dataset, the Massachusetts building dataset, and the WHU East Asia dataset.
Compared to the performance of the segmentation network without the DATA
scheme, the proposed method shows improvements in the overall IoU. Moreover, it
is verified that the proposed method outperforms even when compared to feature
adaptation (FA) and output space adaptation (OSA).Comment: 11pages, 12 figure
A Survey on Deep Learning-based Architectures for Semantic Segmentation on 2D images
Semantic segmentation is the pixel-wise labelling of an image. Since the
problem is defined at the pixel level, determining image class labels only is
not acceptable, but localising them at the original image pixel resolution is
necessary. Boosted by the extraordinary ability of convolutional neural
networks (CNN) in creating semantic, high level and hierarchical image
features; excessive numbers of deep learning-based 2D semantic segmentation
approaches have been proposed within the last decade. In this survey, we mainly
focus on the recent scientific developments in semantic segmentation,
specifically on deep learning-based methods using 2D images. We started with an
analysis of the public image sets and leaderboards for 2D semantic
segmantation, with an overview of the techniques employed in performance
evaluation. In examining the evolution of the field, we chronologically
categorised the approaches into three main periods, namely pre-and early deep
learning era, the fully convolutional era, and the post-FCN era. We technically
analysed the solutions put forward in terms of solving the fundamental problems
of the field, such as fine-grained localisation and scale invariance. Before
drawing our conclusions, we present a table of methods from all mentioned eras,
with a brief summary of each approach that explains their contribution to the
field. We conclude the survey by discussing the current challenges of the field
and to what extent they have been solved.Comment: Updated with new studie
