R2FD2: Fast and Robust Matching of Multimodal Remote Sensing Image via Repeatable Feature Detector and Rotation-invariant Feature Descriptor

Bai Zhu, Chao Yang, Jinkun Dai et al.

Automatically identifying feature correspondences between multimodal images is facing enormous challenges because of the significant differences both in radiation and geometry. To address these problems, we propose a novel feature matching method (named R2FD2) that is robust to radiation and rotation differences. Our R2FD2 is conducted in two critical contributions, consisting of a repeatable feature detector and a rotation-invariant feature descriptor. In the first stage, a repeatable feature detector called the Multi-channel Auto-correlation of the Log-Gabor (MALG) is presented for feature detection, which combines the multi-channel auto-correlation strategy with the Log-Gabor wavelets to detect interest points (IPs) with high repeatability and uniform distribution. In the second stage, a rotation-invariant feature descriptor is constructed, named the Rotation-invariant Maximum index map of the Log-Gabor (RMLG), which consists of two components: fast assignment of dominant orientation and construction of feature representation. In the process of fast assignment of dominant orientation, a Rotation-invariant Maximum Index Map (RMIM) is built to address rotation deformations. Then, the proposed RMLG incorporates the rotation-invariant RMIM with the spatial configuration of DAISY to depict a more discriminative feature representation, which improves RMLG's resistance to radiation and rotation variances.Experimental results show that the proposed R2FD2 outperforms five state-of-the-art feature matching methods, and has superior advantages in adaptability and universality. Moreover, our R2FD2 achieves the accuracy of matching within two pixels and has a great advantage in matching efficiency over other state-of-the-art methods.

Open-Vocabulary Semantic Segmentation Network Integrating Object-Level Label and Scene-Level Semantic Features for Multimodal Remote Sensing Images

Jinkun Dai, Yuanxin Ye, Peng Tang et al.

Semantic segmentation of multi-modal remote sensing imagery plays a pivotal role in land use/land cover (LULC) mapping, environmental monitoring, and precision earth observation. Current multi-modal approaches mainly focus on integrating complementary visual modalities, yet neglect the incorporating of non-visual textual data - a rich source of knowledge that can bridge semantic gaps between visual patterns and real-world concepts. To address this limitation, we propose TSMNet, a text supervised multi-modal open vocabulary semantic segmentation network that synergistically integrates textual supervision with visual representation for open-vocabulary semantic segmentation. Unlike conventional multi-modal segmentation frameworks, TSMNet introduces a dual-branch text encoder to extract both scene-level semantic and object-level label information from various textual data, enabling dynamic cross-modal fusion. These text-derived features dynamically interact with visual embeddings through the proposed text-guided visual semantic fusion module, enabling domain-aware feature refinement and human-interpretable decision-making. To verify our method, we innovatively construct two new multi-modal datasets, and carry out extensive experiments to make a comprehensive comparison between the proposed method and other state-of-the-art (SOTA) semantic segmentation models. Results demonstrate that TSMNet achieves superior segmentation accuracy while exhibiting robust generalization capabilities across diverse geographical and sensor-specific scenarios. This work establishes a new paradigm for explainable remote sensing analysis, demonstrating that textual knowledge integration significantly enhances model generalizability.
