Area of Science:

• Computer Science
• Remote Sensing
• Artificial Intelligence

Background:

• Deep learning models are increasingly used for privacy attacks on remote sensing images.
• Limited labeled data for privacy objects in remote sensing images poses a challenge for training deep learning models.
• Traditional deep neural networks are computationally intensive and unsuitable for small sample classification tasks.

Purpose of the Study:

• To propose a sparse deep learning method to reduce model complexity and improve classification performance for remote sensing images with small sample sizes.
• To address the limitations of traditional deep neural networks in handling limited labeled data and high computational costs.

Main Methods:

• A sparse method for deep neural networks was developed to decrease model complexity.
• Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) was employed to reduce the dimensionality of feature maps in upper convolution layers.
• This approach alleviates computational burden and reduces the number of parameters and redundant feature maps.

Main Results:

• The proposed sparse model demonstrated improved image classification accuracy compared to a plain model on UCMLU and WHURS datasets, with an accuracy increase of 3%.
• The sparse model exhibited a faster convergence speed.
• The method effectively reduces model complexity and enhances performance in small sample remote sensing image classification.

Conclusions:

• The sparse deep learning method offers a viable solution for privacy attack detection in remote sensing images, particularly when dealing with limited data.
• The SVD-based dimensionality reduction effectively optimizes deep neural networks for small sample classification tasks.
• This research contributes to more efficient and accurate privacy protection techniques in remote sensing image analysis.
