An Elliptic Centerness for Object Instance Segmentation in Aerial Images
Instance segmentation in aerial images is an important and challenging task. Most of the existing methods have adapted instance segmentation algorithms developed for natural images to aerial images. However, these methods easily suffer from performance degradation in aerial images, due to the scale variations, large aspect ratios, and arbitrary orientations of instances caused by the bird’s-eye view of aerial images. To address this issue, we propose an elliptic centerness (EC) for instance segmentation in aerial images, which can assign the proper centerness values to the intricate aerial instances and thus mitigate the performance degradation. Specifically, we introduce ellipses to fit the various contours of aerial instances and measure these fitted ellipses by two-dimensional anisotropic Gaussian distribution. Armed with EC, we develop a one-stage aerial instance segmentation network. Extensive experiments on a commonly used dataset, the instance segmentation in aerial images dataset (iSAID), demonstrate that our proposed method can achieve a remarkable performance of instance segmentation while introducing negligible computational cost.

期刊介绍:
The predecessor of Journal of Remote Sensing is Remote Sensing of Environment, which was founded in 1986. It was born in the beginning of China's remote sensing career and is the first remote sensing journal that has grown up with the development of China's remote sensing career. Since its inception, the Journal of Remote Sensing has published a large number of the latest scientific research results in China and the results of nationally-supported research projects in the light of the priorities and needs of China's remote sensing endeavours at different times, playing a great role in the development of remote sensing science and technology and the cultivation of talents in China, and becoming the most influential academic journal in the field of remote sensing and geographic information science in China.
As the only national comprehensive academic journal in the field of remote sensing in China, Journal of Remote Sensing is dedicated to reporting the research reports, stage-by-stage research briefs and high-level reviews in the field of remote sensing and its related disciplines with international and domestic advanced level. It focuses on new concepts, results and progress in this field. It covers the basic theories of remote sensing, the development of remote sensing technology and the application of remote sensing in the fields of agriculture, forestry, hydrology, geology, mining, oceanography, mapping and other resource and environmental fields as well as in disaster monitoring, research on geographic information systems (GIS), and the integration of remote sensing with GIS and the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and its applications.
