用图像语义分割量化地震损毁程度,更客观精准。
From Pixels to Damage Severity: Estimating Earthquake Impacts Using Semantic Segmentation of Social Media Images
- 将损毁评估转为语义分割任务,识别三类损毁状态。
- 构建含三类标签的标注数据集,实现像素级损毁分析。
- 提出新评分体系,结合深度估计量化区域损毁程度。
地震后,社交媒体图像已成为灾害侦察的重要资源,可快速提供损毁范围信息。传统方法多采用分类手段,主观性强且难以反映图像内损毁程度的差异。本文提出将损毁严重性评估建模为语义分割问题,构建包含三类标签的损毁标注数据集:完好结构、受损结构和废墟。基于该数据集,对SegFormer模型进行微调,生成地震后社交媒体图像的损毁严重性分割结果。同时引入一种新的损毁评分系统,通过考虑图像中不同区域的损毁程度并结合深度估计进行校准,实现更客观、全面的损毁量化。该方法提升了对灾情的精细化理解,有助于为救援团队提供精准指引,支持更高效、有针对性的应急响应。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In the aftermath of earthquakes, social media images have become a crucial resource for disaster reconnaissance, providing immediate insights into the extent of damage. Traditional approaches to damage severity assessment in post-earthquake social media images often rely on classification methods, which are inherently subjective and incapable of accounting for the varying extents of damage within an image. Addressing these limitations, this study proposes a novel approach by framing damage severity assessment as a semantic segmentation problem, aiming for a more objective analysis of damage in earthquake-affected areas. The methodology involves the construction of a segmented damage severity dataset, categorizing damage into three degrees: undamaged structures, damaged structures, and debris. Utilizing this dataset, the study fine-tunes a SegFormer model to generate damage severity segmentations for post-earthquake social media images. Furthermore, a new damage severity scoring system is introduced, quantifying damage by considering the varying degrees of damage across different areas within images, adjusted for depth estimation. The application of this approach allows for the quantification of damage severity in social media images in a more objective and comprehensive manner. By providing a nuanced understanding of damage, this study enhances the ability to offer precise guidance to disaster reconnaissance teams, facilitating more effective and targeted response efforts in the aftermath of earthquakes.
