摘要

Salient object detection (SOD) in optical remote sensing images (ORSIs) aims to identify and localize prominent targets amidst complex backgrounds. Challenges such as low contrast, shadow interference, and visually similar non-salient objects hinder SOD performance. To address these, we propose CEHAFNet, a contrast-enhanced hierarchical adaptive fusion network. CEHAFNet integrates a contrast enhancement module that utilizes contrast information to suppress encoder noise and enhance discriminative features, a channel relationship decoding block to model dependencies among high-level feature channels for distinguishing salient targets from visually similar distractors, and a hierarchical adaptive fusion module for global feature interaction. An adaptive multi-level loss function dynamically harmonizes supervision across pixel, region, and map levels. Experiments on ORSSD and EORSSD datasets demonstrate CEHAFNet’s leading performance among 16 state-of-the-art methods, with improvements in \(S_{\alpha }\) S α (0.9372 vs. 0.9003), MAE reduction by 12.38% (0.0092 vs. 0.0105), and \(F_{\beta }^{max}\) F β max enhancement by 0.0182 (from 0.9042 to 0.9224).
