Building detection based on saliency for high resolution satellite images
2013
For building detection from single very high spatial resolution (VHR) satellite images, we take advantage of visual saliency and Bayesian model to rapidly locate roof-top areas. We firstly generate saliency map of an image by a salient contrast filter using low-level feature. This filter distinguishes salient pixels if a pixel is visually different from its surroundings in color or texture. Secondly, a Bayesian model is proposed to generate all closed rectangular contours as mid-level content in the image. We suggest the area enclosed by contour corresponds to high saliency values. Finally, the roof-top areas are extracted by fusing different level information mentioned above. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm.
