Abstract

Remote sensing scene classification is quite important in earth observation and other fields. Previous research has found that most of the existing models are based on deep learning models. However, the classification accuracy of the deep learning model is difficult to break through due to the challenges of difficulty distinguishing the socio-economic attributes of scenes, high interclass similarity, and large intraclass differences. To tackle the challenges, we propose a novel scene classification model that integrates heterogeneous features of multi-source data. Firstly, a multi-granularity feature learning module is designed, which can conduct uniform grid sampling of images to learn multi-granularity features. In this module, in addition to the features of our previous research, we also supplemented the socio-economic semantic features of the scene, and attention-based pooling is introduced to achieve different levels of representation of images. Then, to reduce the dimension of the feature, we adopt the feature-level fusion method. Next, the maxout-based module is designed to fuse the features of different granularity and extract the most distinguishing second-order latent ontology essence features. The weighted adaptive fusion method is used to fuse all the features. Finally, the Lie Group Fisher algorithm is used for scene classification. Extensive experimentation and evaluations show that our proposed model can find better solutions to the above challenges.
