Abstract
En 中文
Semi-supervised semantic segmentation aims to reduce the reliance on large-scale pixel-level annotations, yet existing methods for remote sensing imagery are often limited by severe scale variations, unreliable pseudo-labels, and insufficient cross-scale feature consistency, leading to degraded performance under low annotation ratios. The objective of this work is to improve segmentation accuracy and annotation efficiency for high-resolution remote sensing images by addressing these limitations. To address these issues, we propose a multi-scale semi-supervised framework with a dynamic semantic synergy mechanism, termed DSCS. The proposed Multi-scale Consistency Learning (MSCL) module employs a dynamic threshold strategy to selectively utilize reliable pseudo-labels and enforce cross-scale feature alignment, while the Bidirectional Symmetric Embedding Learning (BSEL) module further enhances teacher-student collaboration in both feature and output spaces. Experiments on the LoveDA and Potsdam datasets demonstrate that DSCS consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods under 5 %-20 % labeling settings, especially in complex scenes with pronounced scale diversity.
