Dataset Preparation

Data structure

"""
Change detection data set with pixel-level binary labels；
├─A
├─B
├─label
├─label_edge
└─list
"""

A: images of t1 phase;

B:images of t2 phase;

label: label maps;

label_edge: using the Canny edge detection operator on theusing the Canny edge detection operator on the label maps;

list: contains train.txt, val.txt and test.txt, each file records the image names (XXX.png) in the change detection dataset.
