TL;DR: This paper proposes a unified and effective method for simultaneously detecting multi-class objects in remote sensing images with large scales variability, and shows that the method is more accurate than existing algorithms and is effective for multi-modalRemote sensing images.
Abstract: Automatic detection of multi-class objects in remote sensing images is a fundamental but challenging problem faced for remote sensing image analysis. Traditional methods are based on hand-crafted or shallow-learning-based features with limited representation power. Recently, deep learning algorithms, especially Faster region based convolutional neural networks (FRCN), has shown their much stronger detection power in computer vision field. However, several challenges limit the applications of FRCN in multi-class objects detection from remote sensing images: (1) Objects often appear at very different scales in remote sensing images, and FRCN with a fixed receptive field cannot match the scale variability of different objects; (2) Objects in large-scale remote sensing images are relatively small in size and densely peaked, and FRCN has poor localization performance with small objects; (3) Manual annotation is generally expensive and the available manual annotation of objects for training FRCN are not sufficient in number. To address these problems, this paper proposes a unified and effective method for simultaneously detecting multi-class objects in remote sensing images with large scales variability. Firstly, we redesign the feature extractor by adopting Concatenated ReLU and Inception module, which can increases the variety of receptive field size. Then, the detection is preformed by two sub-networks: a multi-scale object proposal network (MS-OPN) for object-like region generation from several intermediate layers, whose receptive fields match different object scales, and an accurate object detection network (AODN) for object detection based on fused feature maps, which combines several feature maps that enables small and densely packed objects to produce stronger response. For large-scale remote sensing images with limited manual annotations, we use cropped image blocks for training and augment them with re-scalings and rotations. The quantitative comparison results on the challenging NWPU VHR-10 data set, aircraft data set, Aerial-Vehicle data set and SAR-Ship data set show that our method is more accurate than existing algorithms and is effective for multi-modal remote sensing images.

TL;DR: The weighted double-margin contrastive loss is proposed to address the imbalanced sample is a serious problem in change detection, i.e., unchanged samples are much more abundant than changed samples, which is one of the main reasons for pseudochanges.
Abstract: Change detection is a basic task of remote sensing image processing. The research objective is to identify the change information of interest and filter out the irrelevant change information as interference factors. Recently, the rise in deep learning has provided new tools for change detection, which have yielded impressive results. However, the available methods focus mainly on the difference information between multitemporal remote sensing images and lack robustness to pseudochange information. To overcome the lack of resistance in current methods to pseudochanges, in this article, we propose a new method, namely, dual attentive fully convolutional Siamese networks, for change detection in high-resolution images. Through the dual attention mechanism, long-range dependencies are captured to obtain more discriminant feature representations to enhance the recognition performance of the model. Moreover, the imbalanced sample is a serious problem in change detection, i.e., unchanged samples are much more abundant than changed samples, which is one of the main reasons for pseudochanges. We propose the weighted double-margin contrastive loss to address this problem by punishing attention to unchanged feature pairs and increasing attention to changed feature pairs. The experimental results of our method on the change detection dataset and the building change detection dataset demonstrate that compared with other baseline methods, the proposed method realizes maximum improvements of 2.9% and 4.2%, respectively, in the F 1 score. Our PyTorch implementation is available at https://github.com/lehaifeng/DASNet .

TL;DR: A novel monocular visual odometry system called UnDeepVO, able to estimate the 6-DoF pose of a monocular camera and the depth of its view by using deep neural networks, is proposed.
Abstract: We propose a novel monocular visual odometry (VO) system called UnDeepVO in this paper. UnDeepVO is able to estimate the 6-DoF pose of a monocular camera and the depth of its view by using deep neural networks. There are two salient features of the proposed UnDeepVO: one is the unsupervised deep learning scheme, and the other is the absolute scale recovery. Specifically, we train UnDeepVO by using stereo image pairs to recover the scale but test it by using consecutive monocular images. Thus, UnDeepVO is a monocular system. The loss function defined for training the networks is based on spatial and temporal dense information. A system overview is shown in Fig. 1. The experiments on KITTI dataset show our UnDeepVO achieves good performance in terms of pose accuracy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the propagation of flexural waves in a locally resonant (LR) thin plate made of a two-dimensional periodic array of spring-mass resonators attached on a thin homogeneous plate.
Abstract: The authors study the propagation of flexural waves in a locally resonant (LR) thin plate made of a two-dimensional periodic array of spring–mass resonators attached on a thin homogeneous plate. The well-known plane wave expansion method is extended to deal with such a plate system with a periodic array of lumped resonant elements. Explicit matrix formulations are developed for the calculation of complex band structures, in which the imaginary parts of Bloch wave vectors are displayed to quantify the wave attenuation performance of band gaps. It is found that resonance-type and Bragg-type band gaps coexist in the LR plate, and the bandwidth of these gaps can be dramatically affected by the resonant frequency of local resonators. In particular, a super-wide pseudo-directional gap can be formed by a combination of the resonance gap and Bragg gap; inside such a pseudo-gap, only a very narrow pass band exists. An explicit formula is further developed to facilitate the design of such a pseudo-gap. Finally, vibration transmission in finite LR plates is calculated using the finite element method. Vibration transmission gaps are observed, and the results are in good agreement with the band gap properties predicted by the complex band structures.
