CGMNet: 中心ピクセルとゲート機構ベースの注意ネットワークによるハイパースペクトル変化検出

Change detection (CD) in hyperspectral images (HSIs) has become an increasingly vital research field in remote sensing. Over the past few years, the adoption of deep learning approaches, particularly convolutional neural network (CNN) and transformer-based architectures have significantly advanced performance in this field. While these models effectively capture spectral-spatial features, they may also introduce redundant or irrelevant spatial information, potentially degrading the accuracy of HSI CD. To address this challenge, a center-pixel and gated mechanism-based attention network (CGMNet) is proposed for HSI CD, leveraging the central pixel's significance to enhance accuracy and robustness. First, a gated-based center spatial attention (GCSA) module is designed to emphasize spatial relationships surrounding the central pixel. By incorporating gating mechanisms, GCSA selectively enhances relevant spatial features while suppressing irrelevant information. Second, a gated-based spectral attention (GSA) module is proposed to dynamically highlight the most significant spectral features, ensuring an effective spectral representation. Finally, a global transform fusion (GTF) module is proposed to capture global contextual information and to fuse it with the extracted spatial and spectral features. Moreover, we introduce a novel benchmark dataset, named the Hangzhou Bay (HZB), specifically designed to advance coastal remote sensing research. Experimental evaluations conducted on three publicly available datasets, as well as the HZB dataset, show that our CGMNet consistently outperforms some state-of-the-art methods in the HSI CD task. The source code of the proposed CGMNet, along with the HZB dataset, will be made publicly available at https://github.com/creativeXin/CGMNet.
