Abstract

Feature extraction and matching of remote sensing images is becoming increasingly important with a wide range of applications. It matches and superimposes images obtained from the same scene at different times, different sensors, and different angles, and maps the optimal to the target image. CNN-based algorithms have shown superior expressiveness compared to traditional methods in almost all fields with image. This paper optimises the network based on SuperPoint by replacing convolution with a depth-separable convolution which has smaller number of parameters, and replacing the conv block with a spindle-type Inverted Residuals block composed of dimension expansion, depth-separable convolution and Dimension reduction. The network depth is fine-tuned to ensure accuracy. The model is trained on the RSSCN7 remote sensing dataset. Compared with other traditional algorithms in a cross-sectional manner with the combination of SuperGlue, the optimized algorithm shows the superior comprehensive performance.
