HiSem: Hierarchical Semantic Disentangling for Remote Sensing Image Change Captioning
Remote sensing image change captioning (RSICC) aims to achieve high-level semantic understanding of genuine changes occurring between bi-temporal images. Despite notable progress, existing methods are fundamentally limited by a shared modeling assumption: changed and unchanged image pairs, which have intrinsically different semantic granularities, are processed under a unified modeling strategy. This modeling inconsistency leads to semantic entanglement between coarse-grained change existence judgment and fine-grained semantic understanding.To address the above limitation, we propose a novel hierarchical semantic disentangling network (HiSem) that explicitly disentangles semantic representations of different granularities. Specifically, we first introduce the Bidirectional Differential Attention Modulation (BDAM) module that leverages discrepancy-aware attention to enhance cross-temporal interactions, thereby amplifying true change signals while suppressing irrelevant variations. Building upon this, we design a Hierarchical Adaptive Semantic Disentanglement (HASD) module that performs adaptive routing at two hierarchical levels: a coarse-grained image-level routing mechanism distinguishes changed and unchanged image pairs, while a fine-grained token-level Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) block models diverse and heterogeneous change semantics for changed samples. Extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets demonstrate that HiSem outperfoms previous methods, achieving a significant improvement of +7.52\% BLEU-4 on the WHU-CDC dataset. More importantly, our approach provides a structured perspective for RSICC by explicitly aligning model design with the intrinsic semantic heterogeneity of bi-temporal scenes.
