| contents | Lake extraction from remote sensing images is challenging due to the complex lake shapes and inherent data noises. Existing methods suffer from blurred segmentation boundaries and poor foreground modeling. This paper proposes a hybrid CNN-Transformer architecture, called LEFormer, for accurate lake extraction. LEFormer contains three main modules: CNN encoder, Transformer encoder, and cross-encoder fusion. The CNN encoder effectively recovers local spatial information and improves fine-scale details. Simultaneously, the Transformer encoder captures long-range dependencies between sequences of any length, allowing them to obtain global features and context information. The cross-encoder fusion module integrates the local and global features to improve mask prediction. Experimental results show that LEFormer consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance and efficiency on the Surface Water and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau Lake datasets. Specifically, LEFormer achieves 90.86% and 97.42% mIoU on two datasets with a parameter count of 3.61M, respectively, while being 20 minor than the previous best lake extraction method.
