Abstract:The extraction of buildings from high-resolution remote sensing images is of great significance for the task of three-dimensional reconstruction of urban scenes. A remote sensing image building extraction algorithm (SCGAN) is proposed, which combines adversarial learning and shape correction, to address the problems of misclassification, missed segmentation, and edge confusion that occur when traditional convolutional methods segment buildings in complex background remote sensing images. This algorithm introduces an adversarial learning strategy by adding shape correction units after the segmentation network of the generator. The model"s perception of building boundaries and shapes is improved through building edge extraction and shape regularization paths, respectively. A discriminator that excludes background redundant information and focuses on building shape modeling is used to further guide the training of the segmentation network. The experimental results show that the proposed method is feasible and effective in solving the problems of mutual occlusion and boundary confusion of ground objects at the edges of buildings in remote sensing images, thereby improving the overall accuracy of building segmentation in remote sensing images.
