I am a Associate Professor in the College of Computer and Control Engineering, Northeast Forestry University, where I worked on deep learning-based image processing methods and vision applications for remote sensing. I received my Ph.D. from College of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Engineering University, China in December 2023, advised by Prof. Wu Yanxia. Before that, I received my B.S. from College of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Engineering University in June 2017.

Segmentation-Guided Semantic-Aware Self-Supervised Denoising for SAR Image

Ye Yuan, Yanxia Wu*, Pengming Feng, Yan Fu, Yulei Wu

  • We propose a segmentation-guided semantic-aware self-supervised denoising method for SAR images, namely, SARDeSeg, where a segmentation network is incorporated with a denoising network and guides it to learn and be aware of the semantic information of the input noisy SAR images. The proposed SARDeSeg outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) denoising methods for SAR images, particularly in preserving detailed edge features.

Cross-Point Adversarial Attack Based on Feature Neighborhood Disruption Against Segment Anything Model

Yan Jiang; Guisheng Yin; Ye Yuan*; Jingjing Chen; Zhipeng Wei

  • We propose a cross-point adversarial attack method based on feature neighborhood disruption against SAM, called CP-FND attack. CP-FND aims to generate adversarial examples capable of effectively deceiving SAM under different user-specified point prompts. Specifically, CP-FND can disrupt the continuity and relevance of contextual features, thereby fooling SAM and suppressing its predicted masks.
