• Abstract: Building extraction in VHR RSIs remains to be a challenging task due to occlusion and boundary ambiguity problems. Although conventional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based methods are capable of exploiting local texture and context information, they fail to capture the shape patterns of buildings, which is a necessary constraint in the human recognition. In this context, we propose an adversarial shape learning network (ASLNet) to model the building shape patterns, thus improving the accuracy of building segmentation. In the proposed ASLNet, we introduce the adversarial learning strategy to explicitly model the shape constraints, as well as a CNN shape regularizer to strengthen the embedding of shape features. To assess the geometric accuracy of building segmentation results, we further introduced several object-based assessment metrics. Experiments on two open benchmark datasets show that the proposed ASLNet improves both the pixel-based accuracy and the object-based measurements by a large margin.

  We propose a novel instance segmentation method geared towards Natural Resource Monitoring (NRM) imagery. We formulate the problem as Bayesian maximum a posteriori inference which, in learning the individual object contours, incorporates shape, location, and position priors. In experiments, we tackle the challenging, real-world problem of segmenting individual dead tree crowns and precise contours.

  CNNs are powerful but it would be computationally costly to directly apply convolutions on point data after voxelizing the entire point clouds to a dense regular 3D grid. We propose a novel and principled Local Grid Rendering (LGR) operation to render the small neighborhood of a subset of input points into a low-resolution 3D grid independently. We validate LGR-Net for 3D object detection on the challenging ScanNet and SUN RGB-D datasets.
