Remote Sensing Image Interpretation: Deep Belief Networks for Multi-Object Analysis

Abstract

Object Classification in Remote Sensing Imagery holds paramount importance for extracting meaningful insights from complex aerial scenes. Conventional methods encounter challenges in achieving precision amidst diverse landscape features. This paper introduces an innovative hybrid model to enhance the accuracy of remote sensing multi-object classification. Incorporating a feature-level fusion approach inspired by successful methods, we leverage Adoptive Fuzzy C-means segmentation for precise object classification and Conditional Random Field labeling. Our model excels in capturing diverse features within remote sensing images using multiple feature extraction methods. The distinctive feature of our methodology lies in the thoughtful incorporation of a Deep Belief Network. Through rigorous experimental evaluations on two standard datasets, our proposed system demonstrates exceptional performance, emphasizing its significant potential for advancing methodologies in remote sensing multi-object classification. This tactful integration results in substantial improvements, yielding high accuracies of 97.24% (UCM) and 96.84% (RESISC45). The proposed model is methodologically novel and effective solution for advancing remote sensing image classification.
