Implementation of Unsupervised Deep Slow Feature Analysis for Change Detection in Multi-Temporal Remote Sensing Images.

In this paper, based on deep network and slow feature analysis (SFA) theory, we proposed a new change detection algorithm for multi-temporal remotes sensing images called Deep Slow Feature Analysis (DSFA). In DSFA model, two symmetric deep networks are utilized for projecting the input data of bi-temporal imagery. Then, the SFA module is deployed to suppress the unchanged components and highlight the changed components of the transformed features. The CVA pre-detection is employed to find unchanged pixels with high confidence as training samples. Finally, the change intensity is calculated with chi-square distance and the changes are determined by threshold algorithms. The experiments are performed on two real-world datasets and a public hyperspectral dataset. The visual comparison and quantitative evaluation have both shown that DSFA could outperform the other state-of-the-art algorithms, including other SFA-based and deep learning methods.
