Abstract

In change detection analysis, it is important to distinguish the real change targets and pseudo change targets accurately. Supervised change detection has been regarded as the best way to reduce the effects of pseudo change information. This is because human visual system has the ability to find the real changes. By imitating human visual characteristic, visual attention mechanism can bring the improvement of accuracy and speed of unsupervised change detection. In this paper, a change detection approach based on visual attention mechanism is proposed to reduce the influence of pseudo change information. Experiments show that the proposed method significantly reduces the false alarm rate and missed alarm rate and also shows insensitive to noise.
