Abstract
Remote sensing scene classification is an important technology, which is widely used in military and civil applications. However, it is still a challenging problem due to the complexity of scene images. Recently, the development of remote sensing satellite and sensor devices has greatly improved the spatial resolution and semantic information of remote sensing images. Therefore, we propose a novel remote sensing scene classification approach to enhance the performance of scene classification. First, a spatial and channel-wise attention module is proposed to adequately utilize the spatial and feature information. Compare with other methods, channel-wise module works on the feature maps with diverse levels and pays more attention to semantic-level features. On the other hand, spatial attention module promotes correlation between foreground and classification result. Second, a novel classifier named broad-classifier is designed to enhance the discriminability. It greatly reduces the cost of computing in the meantime by broad learning system. The experimental results have show that our classification method can effectively improve the average accuracies on remote sensing scene classification data sets.
