ARCHITECTURE / SCA-NET

Small changes need serious architecture

This case page behaves like a satellite map: architecture, results, and decision layers sit together to show why road and building change detection is more than comparing two images

SCA-Net

SCA-Net focuses on the place where many models fail: small, thin, contextual changes. Built as an improved direction over Change-Agent, it combines a Difference Pyramid Block, multi-scale processing, and spatial-contextual aggregation to separate real change from texture and noise. The project notes report gains on LEVIR-CD and LEVIR-MCI, especially for small objects
