In the remote sensing field, Change Detection (CD) aims to identify and localize the changed regions from dual-phase images over the same places. Recently, it has achieved great progress with the advances of deep learning. However, current methods generally deliver incomplete CD regions and irregular CD boundaries due to the limited representation ability of the extracted visual features. To relieve these issues, in this work we propose a novel Transformer-based learning framework named TransY-Net for remote sensing image CD, which improves the feature extraction from a global view and combines multi-level visual features in a pyramid manner. More specifically, the proposed framework first utilizes the advantages of Transformers in long-range dependency modeling. It can help to learn more discriminative global-level features and obtain complete CD regions. Then, we introduce a novel pyramid structure to aggregate multi-level visual features from Transformers for feature enhancement. The pyramid structure grafted with a Progressive Attention Module (PAM) can improve the feature representation ability with additional inter-dependencies through spatial and channel attentions. Finally, to better train the whole framework, we utilize the deeply-supervised learning with multiple boundary-aware loss functions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed method achieves a new state-of-the-art performance on four optical and two SAR image CD benchmarks.

Marine Animal Segmentation (MAS) aims at identifying and segmenting marine animals from complex marine environments. Most of previous deep learning-based MAS methods struggle with the long-distance modeling issue. Recently, Segment Anything Model (SAM) has gained popularity in general image segmentation. However, it lacks of perceiving fine-grained details and frequency information. To this end, we propose a novel learning framework, named Hierarchical Frequency Prompted SAM (HFP-SAM) for high-performance MAS. First, we design a Frequency Guided Adapter (FGA) to efficiently inject marine scene information into the frozen SAM backbone through frequency domain prior masks. Additionally, we introduce a Frequency-aware Point Selection (FPS) to generate highlighted regions through frequency analysis. These regions are combined with the coarse predictions of SAM to generate point prompts and integrate into SAM's decoder for fine predictions. Finally, to obtain comprehensive segmentation masks, we introduce a Full-View Mamba (FVM) to efficiently extract spatial and channel contextual information with linear computational complexity. Extensive experiments on four public datasets demonstrate the superior performance of our approach. The source code is publicly available at https://github.com/Drchip61/TIP-HFP-SAM.
