Abstract
En 中文
Salient Object Detection in optical remote sensing images (ORSI-SOD) has received increasing attention in recent years. Although some progress has been made in existing methods, there are still challenges such as ambiguous and irregular boundaries of salient targets and complex backgrounds. The existing ORSI-SOD methods have difficulty in finely dividing the boundaries of salient targets and dealing with chaotic backgrounds. To solve these problems, we propose a new network based on the diffusion model, termed DiffORSINet, which describes the ORSI-SOD task as a conditional mask generation problem. By combining RGB images and the guidance of time steps, it can gradually and accurately locate and refine the segmentation of salient targets during the denoising process. Furthermore, we design a dedicated denoising network, which includes a Fourier frequency awareness module (FFAM) and a multilevel feature fusion module (MFFM), which significantly improves the refinement ability of the network. FFAM captures and fuses the frequency-domain features by combining the Fourier transform operation and the cross-attention (CA) mechanism, enhances the intensity of some signals, and thereby refines the image details. MFFM reduces the interference of chaotic backgrounds by coordinating and fusing multilevel features and suppressing irrelevant regions. Finally, the comparative experimental results on three widely used ORSI-SOD datasets show that the method proposed in this article is superior to other existing methods. Our code and results are available at https://github.com/hyy-qd/DiffORSINet/
