Enhanced U-Net++ for Improved Semantic Segmentation in Landslide Detection.

Landslide detection and segmentation are critical for disaster risk assessment and management. However, achieving accurate segmentation remains challenging due to the complex nature of landslide terrains and the limited availability of high-quality labeled datasets. This paper proposes an enhanced U-Net++ model for semantic segmentation of landslides in the Wenchuan region using the CAS Landslide Dataset. The proposed model integrates multi-scale feature extraction and attention mechanisms to enhance segmentation accuracy and robustness. The experimental results demonstrate that ASK-UNet++ outperforms traditional methods, achieving a mean intersection over union (mIoU) of 97.53%, a Dice coefficient of 98.27%, and an overall accuracy of 96.04%. These findings highlight the potential of the proposed approach for improving landslide monitoring and disaster response strategies.
