Efficient Semantic Splatting for Remote Sensing Multiview Segmentation

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Remote sensing multi-view image segmentation is essential for achieving accurate and consistent stereoscopic perception of target scenes. This task involves processing RGB images from multiple viewpoints to generate high-accuracy, view-consistent semantic segmentation across all views. Traditional training-based methods struggle with maintaining cross-view consistency, while optimization-driven approaches using implicit neural networks improve view consistency but suffer from slow parameter optimization and inference. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel Gaussian Splatting-based semantic segmentation framework. Our method efficiently projects the color attributes and semantic features of 3D Gaussians onto the image plane, enabling the simultaneous generation of both RGB images and segmentation outputs. By leveraging explicit spatial structures and a splatting rendering strategy, our approach significantly enhances optimization efficiency and rendering speed. Additionally, we incorporate SAM2 to generate pseudo-labels for boundary regions, addressing the lack of supervision in sparsely labeled views (e.g., 3%). To further enforce cross-view consistency and feature coherence of 3D Gaussians, we introduce a two-level aggregation loss that operates at both the 2D feature map and 3D spatial levels. Extensive experiments across nine datasets demonstrate the superiority of our method, achieving competitive segmentation quality with limited supervisory views. Notably, our approach reduces rendering (inference) times by 90%, while improving the average mIoU by up to 3.5%.
