Abstract
En 中文
High-resolution remote sensing image segmentation remains challenging due to spatial misalignment, intra-class variability, and blurred object boundaries. These issues are particularly severe for small-scale or elongated ground objects, and are further exacerbated by the limited availability of pixel-level annotations, which increases the difficulty of model training. To address these challenges, we propose HSGNet, a structure-aware and alignment-guided segmentation network. The framework follows a progressive pipeline: multi-scale encoding to extract semantic priors, pixel-wise displacement estimation for geometric correction, edge-aware enhancement combined with gradient consistency constraints to refine boundary representation, and confidence-filtered pseudo-labeling with boundary-sensitive regularization for stable semi-supervised learning. Experiments on the ISPRS Potsdam dataset, along with cross domain validation on the Vaihingen dataset, demonstrate that HSGNet consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in terms of pixel accuracy (Pixel Acc), mean Intersection-over-Union (mIoU), F1-score, and boundary F1-score (Boundary-F1).
