Self-Supervised Learning for Building Damage Assessment from Large-scale xBD Satellite Imagery Benchmark Datasets
Zaishuo Xia, Zelin Li, Yanbing Bai, Jinze Yu, Bruno Adriano
In the field of post-disaster assessment, for timely and accurate rescue and localization after a disaster, people need to know the location of damaged buildings. In deep learning, some scholars have proposed methods to make automatic and highly accurate building damage assessments by remote sensing images, which are proved to be more efficient than assessment by domain experts. However, due to the lack of a large amount of labeled data, these kinds of tasks can suffer from being able to do an accurate assessment, as the efficiency of deep learning models relies highly on labeled data. Although existing semi-supervised and unsupervised studies have made breakthroughs in this area, none of them has completely solved this problem. Therefore, we propose adopting a self-supervised comparative learning approach to address the task without the requirement of labeled data. We constructed a novel asymmetric twin network architecture and tested its performance on the xBD dataset. Experiment results of our model show the improvement compared to baseline and commonly used methods. We also demonstrated the potential of self-supervised methods for building damage recognition awareness.
