In recent years, the progress of remote sensing image technology has provided high-resolution data. However, unlike other tasks, change detection focuses on the difference between dual-input images, so the interaction between bi-temporal features is crucial. However, the existing methods have not fully tapped the potential of multi-scale bi-temporal features to interact layer by layer. Therefore, this paper proposes a multi-scale feature interaction network (MFINet). The network realizes the information interaction of multi-temporal images by inserting a bi-temporal feature interaction layer (BFIL) between backbone networks at the same level, guides the attention to focus on the difference region, and suppresses the interference. At the same time, a double temporal feature fusion layer (BFFL) is used at the end of the coding layer to extract subtle difference features. By introducing the transformer decoding layer and improving the recovery effect of the feature size, the ability of the network to accurately capture the details and contour information of the building is further improved. The F1 of our model on the public dataset LEVIR-CD reaches 90.12%, which shows better accuracy and generalization performance than many state-of-the-art change detection models.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16071269","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,4]],"date-time":"2024-04-04T06:57:34Z","timestamp":1712213854000},"page":"1269","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["MFINet: Multi-Scale Feature Interaction Network for Change Detection of High-Resolution Remote Sensing Images"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Wuxu","family":"Ren","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center on Atmospheric Environment and Equipment Technology, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology, Nanjing 210044, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0549-3759","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhongchen","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center on Atmospheric Environment and Equipment Technology, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology, Nanjing 210044, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4681-9129","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Min","family":"Xia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center on Atmospheric Environment and Equipment Technology, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology, Nanjing 210044, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3835-6075","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Haifeng","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Information Science and Technology, Nanjing Forestry University, Nanjing 210000, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Ding, L., Xia, M., Lin, H., and Hu, K.
