Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of remote sensing image processing and natural disaster monitoring technology, specifically involving a seawater intrusion classification method coupled with weak supervision and multidimensional features. Background Technology

[0002] Seawater intrusion often causes severe damage to coastal agriculture and ecosystems, and satellite remote sensing technology is currently the mainstream monitoring method. However, existing remote sensing monitoring technologies still face many technical limitations in practical applications: First, single data sources have observation blind spots, optical images are easily obscured by clouds and fog, and single synthetic aperture radar (SAR) lacks the ability to spectrally diagnose vegetation health and surface salinity; second, sudden disasters present the challenge of cold-start sampling, making it difficult to quickly obtain a large number of manually labeled samples after a disaster, resulting in traditional supervised classification models being unable to respond quickly; third, the complex urban-rural intermingling environment along the coast contains a large number of impermeable surfaces with high humidity or dark scattering, which can easily lead to false alarms due to misidentification of objects with the same spectrum; fourth, existing methods are mostly limited to simple binary extraction of submerged / unsubmerged data, and often use fixed empirical thresholds, ignoring the differences in the tolerance of different land cover types to salinity stress, and lacking adaptive quantitative classification capabilities. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a seawater intrusion classification and assessment method that couples optical and radar multi-source features, has a high degree of automation, and can adapt to background differences. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned deficiencies of existing technologies and provide a seawater intrusion classification method coupled with weak supervision and multi-dimensional features. Specifically, addressing the difficulties in obtaining samples in the early stages of sudden disasters and the challenges of model cold start, this invention aims to automatically generate high-confidence disaster samples by introducing a weakly supervised sampling mechanism driven by physical prior rules. Simultaneously, to solve the problem of low extraction accuracy caused by homospectral foreign objects in complex coastal environments, this invention aims to construct an extraction framework that deeply couples optical and radar multi-source features and multi-spatial semantic noise resistance, thereby significantly improving the robustness and accuracy of intrusion range monitoring. Finally, addressing the pain points of traditional disaster assessment mechanisms being rigid and lacking quantitative methods, this invention aims to establish a three-dimensional feature vector assessment space and dynamic percentile model that takes into account the ecological background, in order to achieve objective, automated, and refined classification and damage assessment of seawater intrusion disasters.
