Temporal Convolutional Neural Network

Training temporal Convolution Neural Netoworks (CNNs) on satelitte image time series.
This code is supporting by a paper published in Remote Sensing:

}

Prerequisites

This code relies on Pyhton 3.6 (and should work on Python 2.7) and Keras with Tensorflow backend.

Examples

Running the models

  • main architecture: python run_main_archi.py
  • other experiments described in the related paper:
python run_archi.py --sits_path ./ --res_path path/to/results --noarchi 0

The architecture (run_main_archi.py) will run by training the network on example/train_dataset.csv file and by testing it on example/test_dataset.csv file.
Please note that both train_dataset.csv and test_dataset.csv files are a subsample of the data used in the paper: original data cannot be distributed.

Thoses files have no header, and contain one observation per row having the following format: [class,polygonID,date1.NIR,date1.R,date1.G,date2.NIR,...,date149.G], where class corresponds to the class label and polygonID to a unique polygon identifier for each plot of land.

Changing network parameters

  • Number of channels in the data: n_channels = 3 (run_archi.py, L21).
    It will require to change functions contained in readingsits.py.
  • Validation rate: val_rate = 0.05 (run_archi.py, L22).
  • Network hyperparameters are mainly defined in architecture_features.py file.

Getting predictions for a csv file or a tiff image

python write_output.py --model_path path/to/model --test_file path/to/pred.csv --result_file path/to/results/result.csv --proba

test_file is either a csv file or a tiff image. If the test_file is a tiff file and --proba activated, two tiff images are created: 1) a land cover map, and 2) a tiff image composed of n_classes bands that contains the proabbility outputed by the Softmax layer for each class. The code has been designed to work on small tiff file. Predictions on a big tiff file would require to set up carefully size_areaX and size_areaY variables (L86-87 in write_output.py).

Please note that the pred.csv file should have the same format than example/train_dataset.csv, including the class field that could be set to -1.

Maps

The produced map for TempCNNs and RFs are available in the map folder.
