摘要： Monitoring of rice planting areas plays an important role in maintaining food security. With powerful automatic feature extraction capability, crop mapping based on deep learning methods has become one of the most important research directions of crop remote sensing recognition. However, the training of deep learning models often requires a large number of samples, which restricts the application of these models in areas with a lack of samples. To address this problem, based on time-series Sentinel-1 SAR data, this study pre-trained the temporal feature-based segmentation (TFBS) model with an attention mechanism (attTFBS) using abundant samples from the United States and then performed an inter-continental transfer of the pre-trained model based on a very small number of samples to obtain rice maps in areas with a lack of samples. The results showed that an inter-continental transferred rice mapping model was feasible to achieve accurate rice maps in Northeast China (F-score, kappa coefficient, recall, and precision were 0.8502, 0.8439, 0.8345, and 0.8669, respectively). The study found that the transferred model exhibited a strong spatiotemporal generalization capability, achieving high accuracy in rice mapping in the three main rice-producing regions of Northeast China. The phenological differences of rice significantly affected the generalization capability of the transferred model, particularly the significant differences in transplanting periods, which could have resulted in a decrease in the generalization capability of the model. Furthermore, the study found that the model transferred based on an extremely limited number of samples could attain a rice recognition accuracy equivalent to that of the model trained from scratch with a substantial number of samples, indicating that the proposed method possessed strong practicality, which could dramatically reduce the sample requirements for crop mapping based on deep learning models, thereby decreasing costs, increasing efficiency, and facilitating large-scale crop mapping in areas with limited samples.
