Title
Hierarchical Segmentation Of Remote Sensing Images By Unsupervised Deep Learning Features
Abstract
Due to the scale diversity of geographical objects, hierarchical remote sensing image segmentation plays an important role in object-oriented image analysis. In this paper, a hierarchical remote sensing images segmentation method with unsupervised deep learning features is proposed. The unsupervised deep learning features of an image are extracted with a sparse convolutional auto-encoder. Both deep features and the clustering information of deep features are utilized in hierarchical image segmentation which is a bottom-up region merging process. The iterative region merging process starts from an initial partition of an image under a merging criterion. Finally, a tree-like image segmentations hierarchy which contains ground objects of different scales is obtained. The proposed method integrates the advantages of unsupervised deep learning features with region merging-based hierarchical image segmentation. The experiment results have shown the proposed method is superior to the methods using only spectral or spatial features.
