Self-supervised Remote Sensing Images Change Detection at Pixel-level
Deep learning techniques have achieved great success in remote sensing image change detection. Most of them are supervised techniques, which usually require large amounts of training data and are limited to a particular application. Self-supervised methods as an unsupervised approach are popularly used to solve this problem and are widely used in unsupervised binary change detection tasks. However, the existing self-supervised methods in change detection are based on pre-tasks or at patch-level, which may be sub-optimal for pixel-wise change detection tasks. Therefore, in this work, a pixel-wise contrastive approach is proposed to overcome this limitation. This is achieved by using contrastive loss in pixel-level features on an unlabeled multi-view setting. In this approach, a Siamese ResUnet is trained to obtain pixel-wise representations and to align features from shifted positive pairs. Meanwhile, vector quantization is used to augment the learned features in two branches. The final binary change map is obtained by subtracting features of one branch from features of the other branch and using the Rosin thresholding method. To overcome the effects of regular seasonal changes in binary change maps, we also used an uncertainty method to enhance the temporal robustness of the proposed approach. Two homogeneous (OSCD and MUDS) datasets and one heterogeneous (California Flood) dataset are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed approach. Results demonstrate improvements in both efficiency and accuracy over the patch-wise multi-view contrastive method.
