Due to anthropogenic and natural activities, the land surface continuously changes over time. The accurate and timely detection of changes is greatly important for environmental monitoring, resource management and planning activities. In this study, a novel deep learning-based change detection algorithm is proposed for bi-temporal polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) imagery using a transfer learning (TL) method. In particular, this method has been designed to automatically extract changes by applying three main steps as follows: (1) pre-processing, (2) parallel pseudo-label training sample generation based on a pre-trained model and fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm, and (3) classification. Moreover, a new end-to-end three-channel deep neural network, called TCD-Net, has been introduced in this study. TCD-Net can learn more strong and abstract representations for the spatial information of a certain pixel. In addition, by adding an adaptive multi-scale shallow block and an adaptive multi-scale residual block to the TCD-Net architecture, this model with much lower parameters is sensitive to objects of various sizes. Experimental results on two Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture Radar (UAVSAR) bi-temporal datasets demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm compared to other well-known methods with an overall accuracy of 96.71% and a kappa coefficient of 0.82.
