    Abstract:
    Semantic segmentation for high-resolution remote-sensing imagery (HRRSI) has become increasingly popular in machine vision in recent years. Most of the state-of-the-art methods for semantic segmentation of HRRSI usually emphasize the strong learning ability of deep convolutional neural network to model the contextual relationship in the image, which takes too much consideration on every pixel in images and subsequently causes the problem of overlearning. Annotation errors and easily confused features can also lead to the confusion problem while using the pixel-based methods. Therefore, we propose a new semantic segmentation network-the region-enhancing network (RE-Net)-to emphasize the regional information instead of pixels to solve the above problems. RE-Net introduces the regional information into the base network, to enhance the regional integrity of images and thus reduce misclassification. Specifically, the regional context learning procedure (RCLP) can learn the context relationship from the perspective of regions. The region correcting procedure (RCP) uses the pixel aggregation feature to recalibrate the pixel features in each region. In addition, another simple intra-network multi-scale attention module is introduced to select features at different scales by the size of the region. A large number of comparative experiments on four different public datasets demonstrate that the proposed RE-Net performs better than most of the state-of-the-art ones.
