Abstract
With the powerful discriminative capabilities of convolutional neural networks, change detection has achieved significant success. However, current methods either ignore the spatiotemporal dependencies between dual-temporal images or suffer from decreased accuracy due to registration errors. Addressing these challenges, this paper proposes a method for remote sensing image change detection based on the cross-mixing attention network. To minimize the impact of registration errors on change detection results, a feature alignment module (FAM) is specifically developed in this study. The FAM performs spatial transformations on dual-temporal feature maps, achieving the precise spatial alignment of feature pairs and reducing false positive rates in change detection. Additionally, to fully exploit the spatiotemporal relationships between dual-temporal images, a cross-mixing attention module (CMAM) is utilized to extract global channel information, enhancing feature selection capabilities. Furthermore, attentional maps are created to guide the up-sampling process, optimizing feature information. Comprehensive experiments conducted on the LEVIR-CD and SYSU-CD change detection datasets demonstrate that the proposed model achieves F1 scores of 91.06% and 81.88%, respectively, outperforming other comparative models. In conclusion, the proposed model maintains good performance on two datasets and, thus, has good applicability in various change detection tasks.
