description | Building change detection has always been an important research focus in production and urbanization. In recent years, deep learning methods have demonstrated a powerful ability in the field of detecting remote sensing changes. However, due to the heterogeneity of remote sensing and the characteristics of buildings, the current methods do not present an effective means to perceive building changes or the ability to fuse multi-temporal remote sensing features, which leads to fragmented and incomplete results. In this article, we propose a multi-branched network structure to fuse the semantic information of the building changes at different levels. In this model, two accessory branches were used to guide the buildings’ semantic information under different time sequences, and the main branches can merge the change information. In addition, we also designed a feature enhancement layer to further strengthen the integration of the main and accessory branch information. For ablation experiments, we designed experiments on the above optimization process. For MDEFNET, we designed experiments which compare with typical deep learning model and recent deep learning change detection methods. Experimentation with the WHU Building Change Detection Dataset showed that the method in this paper obtained accuracies of 0.8526, 0.9418, and 0.9204 in Intersection over Union (IoU), Recall, and F1 Score, respectively, which could assess building change areas with complete boundaries and accurate results. |
