Abstract

Automatically detecting ground object from optical remote sensing images has attracted significant attention due to its importance in both military and civilian fields. However, the diversity of configuration for different object and the complex background information makes this task difficult. Moreover, the high-level semantic information is usually ignored. To address these problems, we propose an efficient method that extracts deep feature with high-level semantic information from a classification convolutional neural network, and separates the regions of interested based on deep feature. Then each region of interest will be sent to another convolutional neural network to verify whether they are true objects or not. Our proposed method can adapt different objects. Also, it doesn’t need any bounding box information for training. We build two remote sensing datasets, SROD-3 and RSHOA-4, to evaluate our detection method. Experiment result indicates that our detection method performs better than other state of the art methods, including Faster-RCNN and YOLO9000.
