Abstract
Change detection in remote sensing images turns out to play a significant role for the preceding years. Change detection in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images comprises certain complications owing to the reality that it endures from the existence of the speckle noise. Hence, to overcome this limitation, this paper intends to develop an improved model for detecting the changes in SAR image. In this model, two SAR images captivated at varied times will be considered as the input for the change detection process. Initially, discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is employed for image fusion, where the coefficients are optimized using improved grey wolf optimization (GWO) called adaptive GWO (AGWO) algorithm. Finally, the fused images after inverse transform are clustered using fuzzy C-means (FCM) clustering technique and a similarity measure is performed among the segmented image and ground truth image. With the use of all these technologies, the proposed model is termed as adaptive grey wolf-based DWT with FCM (AGWDWT-FCM). The similarity measures analyze the relevant performance measures such as accuracy, specificity and F1 score. Moreover, the performance of the AGWDWT-FCM in change detection model is compared to other conventional models, and the improvement is noted.
