Improving remote sensing scene classification using dung Beetle optimization with enhanced deep learning approach

Remote sensing (RS) scene classification has received significant consideration because of its extensive use by the RS community. Scene classification in satellite images has widespread uses in remote surveillance, environmental observation, remote scene analysis, urban planning, and earth observations. Because of the immense benefits of the land scene classification task, various approaches have been presented recently for automatically classifying land scenes from remote sensing images (RSIs). Several approaches dependent upon convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are presented for classifying brutal RS scenes; however, they could only partially capture the context from RSIs due to the problematic texture, cluttered context, tiny size of objects, and considerable differences in object scale. This article designs a Remote Sensing Scene Classification using Dung Beetle Optimization with Enhanced Deep Learning (RSSC-DBOEDL) approach. The purpose of the RSSC-DBOEDL technique is to categorize different varieties of scenes that exist in the RSI. In the presented RSSC-DBOEDL technique, the enhanced MobileNet model is primarily deployed as a feature extractor. The DBO method could be implemented in this study for hyperparameter tuning of the enhanced MobileNet model. The RSSC-DBOEDL technique uses a multi-head attention-based long short-term memory (MHA-LSTM) technique to classify the scenes in the RSI. The simulation evaluation of the RSSC-DBOEDL approach has been examined under the benchmark RSI datasets. The simulation results of the RSSC-DBOEDL approach exhibited a more excellent accuracy outcome of 98.75 % and 95.07 % under UC Merced and EuroSAT datasets with other existing methods regarding distinct measures.
