    Remote sensing image segmentation algorithms are susceptible to interference from environmental factors, such as object occlusion and uneven illumination. Existing deep learning remote sensing image semantic segmentation methods usually adopt an end-to-end codec structure. However, they still suffer from inaccurate segmentation for the structure and contours of high similarity objects. Therefore, to improve the algorithm robustness and classification accuracy, a deep convolutional neural network remote sensing image semantic segmentation algorithm based on contour gradient learning is proposed. To improve the quality of the predicted feature maps, the adaptive attention-based multichannel multiscale feature fusion network (D-MMA Net) is proposed based on the SegNet model network. The D-MA block uses an attention-based adaptive multiscale module to adaptively extract different scale features according to the learned weights to obtain more effective high level semantic features. To further refine the extracted object boundaries, the contour extraction module, a learnable contour extraction module, is proposed based on the principle of the Sobel edge detection operator. Finally, the contour information is combined with multi-scale semantic features to enhance the robustness of the spatial resolution of the image. The experimental results show that the proposed method improves the segmentation accuracy and produces good segmentation results for irregular object boundaries.
