SemDINO: A DINOv3-Driven Network for Cross-Temporal Semantic Alignment in Change Detection

Property details

Additional property details will be updated shortly.

Property description

Semantic change detection (SCD) aims to simultaneously locate land-cover changes and identify semantic categories before and after transition. However, existing methods suffer from insufficient cross-temporal alignment, weak multi-scale representation, and poor robustness to pseudo-changes caused by illumination, season, and registration noise. To address these issues, we propose a novel end-to-end semantic change detection network named SemDINO, which integrates a dual-branch encoder, multi-scale temporal interaction, semantic purification, change enhancement, and decoupled multi-task prediction into a unified framework. Specifically, we construct a dual-branch encoder that combines a CNN backbone and frozen DINOv3 features via gated pyramid fusion, enabling rich multi-scale semantic representation. Then, a multi-scale temporal bidirectional transformer interaction (M-TBTT) module is proposed to achieve global cross-temporal feature alignment and information interaction. To further enhance genuine changes and suppress pseudo-variations, we introduce semantic purification (SCP), bidirectional change enhancement (BiChangeEnhance), and multi-scale change enhancement (MCE) modules collaboratively. Finally, a multi-branch CD prediction head is designed to jointly output binary change mask, bi-temporal semantic maps, and edge constraint. Extensive experiments on public remote sensing CD datasets demonstrate that SemDINO achieves superior performance and generalization ability against state-of-the-art methods, especially in complex scenarios with interference factors.
