RSCNet: A Residual Self-Calibrated Network for Hyperspectral Image Change Detection.

Deep learning-based methods (e.g., convolutional neural network (CNN)-based methods) have shown increasing potential in hyperspectral image (HSI) change detection (CD). However, the recent advances in CNN-based methods in HSI CD tasks are mostly devoted to designing more complex architectures or adding additional hand-designed blocks. This increases the number of parameters making model training difficult. In this article, we propose an end-to-end residual self-calibrated network (RSCNet) to increase the accuracy of HSI CD. To fully exploit the spatial information, the proposed RSCNet method adaptively builds interspatial and interspectral dependencies around each spatial location with fewer extra parameters and reduced complexity. Moreover, the introduced self-calibrated convolution (SCConv) helps to generate more discriminative representations by heterogeneously exploiting convolutional filters nested in the convolutional layer. The designed RSC module can explicitly incorporate richer information by introducing response calibration operation. The experiments on four bitemporal HSI datasets demonstrated that the proposed RSCNet method is more accurate than ten widely used benchmark methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
