Object detection is facing various challenges as an important aspect in the field of remote sensingespecially in large scenes due to the increase of satellite image resolution and the complexity of land covers. Because of the diversity of the appearance of track and fields, the complexity of the background and the variety between satellite images, even superior deep learning methods have difficulty extracting accurate characteristics of track and field from large complex scenes, such as the whole of China. Taking track and field as a study case, we propose a stable and accurate method for target detection. Firstly, we add the deconvolution and concat module to the structure of the original Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD), where Visual Geometry Group 16 (VGG16) is served as a basic network, followed by multiple convolution layers. The two modules are used to sample the high-level feature map and connect it with the low-level feature map to form a new network structure multi-scale-fused SSD (abbreviated as MSF_SSD). MSF-SSD can enrich the semantic information of the low-level feature, which is especially effective for small targets in large scenes. In addition, a large number of track and fields are collected as samples for the whole China and a series of parameters are designed to optimize the MSF_SSD network through the deep analysis of sample characteristics. Finally, by using MSF_SSD network, we achieve the rapid and automatic detection of meter-level track and fields in the country for the first time. The proposed MSF_SSD model achieves 97.9% mean average precision (mAP) on validation set which is superior to the 88.4% mAP of the original SSD. Apart from this, the model can achieve an accuracy of 94.3% while keeping the recall rate in a high level (98.8%) in the nationally distributed test set, outperforming the original SSD method. |
