Building Footprint Generation By Integrating U-Net With Deepened Space Module

In this paper, we propose a novel and practical convolutional neural network method for building footprint generation in remote sensing images, in order to deal with the problem that the detailed information and geometric structure of ground objects in high-resolution images become more abundant, which leads to a large increase in the calculation amount. So we introduce a deepened space module, which can ignore the channels with weak target features and emphasize the effective features. It is embedded in each splicing layer in the upsampling process of U-net to achieve the effect of feature selection. By means of clipping and data enhancement, we carry out iterative training and model optimization learning on Inria aerial image label dataset, and realize the automatic generation of building footprint. Compared with FCN8s, U
