We use a deep convolutional neural network with residual training and PReLU activation, inspired by the super-resolution task for RGB images. In the case of hyperspectral imaging, it is often a problem to find a large enough ground truth dataset for training a neural network from scratch. Transfer learning using the network pretrained for RGB images with some pre- and postprocessing is one of the possible workarounds. In this paper, we propose to simulate the necessary ground truth data using non-imaging spectrometer. The obtained dataset with partially simulated ground truth is then used to train the convolutional neural network directly for hyperspectral image quality enhancement. The proposed training approach also allows to incorporate distortions specific for hyperspectral images into the enhancement procedure. It allows to successfully remove the striping distortions inherent to the Offner scheme of image acquisition. The experimental results of the proposed approach show a significant quality gain.","PeriodicalId":197319,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th IAPR Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Remote Sensing (PRRS)","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127644935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Popular remote sensor data, e.g., hyperspectral (HS) and light detection and ranging (LiDAR), contain complementary information for land cover if they are co-registered. In this paper, we aim to integrate information extracted from these data sources for land cover classification. At first, we propose a novel feature extraction method by calculating the inverse coefficient of variation (ICV) using the Gaussian probability of neighbourhood between every pair of bands in HS data. This is calculated for each band with respect to every other band to form an ICV cube. We reduce the number of planes in the cube by applying principal component analysis (PCA) on it and spatial features are then extracted for significant principal components. The spectral information from HS data, their ICV responses, and spatial information from ICV responses have complementary information; that is why we fuse them together by layer stacking to generate discriminant features. Secondly, we also derive height and spatial features from LiDAR Digital Elevation Model (DSM), which are later concatenated with the HS derived features. Finally, these features are classified using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) classifier. The classification results prove the effectiveness of the derived features from both data sources.","PeriodicalId":197319,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th IAPR Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Remote Sensing (PRRS)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126092497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The task is required for a wide range of application, such as autonomous driving, urban planning and automatic mapping for GIS data collection. Most approaches cast the road extraction as image segmentation and use thinning algorithm to get road centerline. However, these methods can easily produce spurs around the true centerline which affects the accuracy of road centerline extraction and lacks the topology of road network. In this paper, we propose a novel method to directly extract accurate road centerline from aerial images and construct the topology of the road network. First, an end-to-end regression network based on convolutional neural network is designed to learn and predict a road centerline confidence map which is a 2D representation of the probability of each pixel to be on the road centerline. Our network combines multi-scale and multi-level feature information to produce refined confidence map. Then a canny-like non-maximum suppression is followed to attain accurate road centerline. Finally, we use spoke wheel to find the road direction of the initialized road center point and take advantage of road tracking to construct the topology of road network. The results on the Massachusetts Road dataset shows an significant improvement on the accuracy of location of extracted road centerline.","PeriodicalId":197319,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th IAPR Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Remote Sensing (PRRS)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114918935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The parametric and nonparametric approaches are compared in the experiments. The popular Gaussian mixture model (GMM) and expectation-maximization (EM) decomposition algorithm are selected as the parametric approach. Nonparametric mixture model (NMM) and fuzzy mean-shift (FMS) are used as the nonparametric approach. We first run our experiment on simulated waveforms. The experiment setup is in favor of the parametric approach because GMM is used to generate the waveforms. We show that both parametric and nonparametric approaches return satisfying results on the simulated mixture of Gaussian components. In the second experiment, real data acquired with an airborne lidar are used. We find that NMM fits the data better than GMM because the Gaussian assumption is not well satisfied in the real dataset. Considering that the emitted signals of a laser scanner may even not satisfy the Gaussian assumption, we conclude that nonparametric approaches should generally be utilized for practical applications.","PeriodicalId":197319,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th IAPR Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Remote Sensing (PRRS)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133734839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed method utilizes a supervoxel structure to organize the point clouds, and then extracts the detrended geometric features from the local context of supervoxels. Combined with the detrended features of the local context, the Random Forest (RF) classifier will be adopted to obtain the initial semantic labeling results of trees from point clouds. Afterwards, a local context-based regularization is iteratively performed to achieve global optimum on a global graphical model, in order to spatially smoothing the semantic labeling results. Finally, a graph-based segmentation is conducted to separate individual trees according to the semantic labeling results. The use of supervoxel structure can preserve the geometric boundaries of objects in the scene, and compared with point-based solutions, the supervoxel-based method can largely decrease the number of basic elements during the processing. Besides, the introduction of supervoxel contexts can extract the local information of an object making the feature extraction more robust and representative. Detrended geometric features can get over the redundant and in-salient information in the local context, so that discriminative features are obtained. Benefiting from the regularization process, the spatial smoothing is obtained based on initial labeling results from classic classifications such as RF classification. As a result, misclassification errors are removed to a large degree and semantic labeling results are thus smoothed. Based on the constructed global graphical model during the spatially smoothing process, a graph-based segmentation is applied to partition the graphical model for the clustering the instances of trees. The experiments on two test datasets have shown promising results, with an accuracy of the semantic labeling of trees reaching around 0.9. The segmentation of trees using graph-based algorithm also show acceptable results, with trees having simple structures and sparse distributions correctly separated, but for those cramped trees with complex structures, the points are over- or under-segmented.","PeriodicalId":197319,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th IAPR Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Remote Sensing (PRRS)","volume":"187 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114851195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An accurate and real-time visual human recognition task, however, represents a scientific challenge because typical UAV imaging and computational capabilities and conditions introduce complexities and constraints. Motion blur, the non-specific top-view appearance of humans, low-image resolution and limited onboard computational resources are among the most important limiting factors to be considered. In this paper we propose a run-time-efficient multi-modal detection framework performing clustering and recognition on thermal infrared, passive stereo depth and intensity channels in order to cope with the above complexities and to achieve accurate human detection results. Thermal infrared and depth data are used to generate proposals in combination with an explicit, tree-structured shape representation driven clustering scheme. Generated proposals are used as an input for a discriminatively trained deep classification step to recognize humans. The proposed clustering and classification scheme is validated in qualitative and quantitative terms on four large aerial datasets representing complex (small objects, clutter, occlusions) situations.","PeriodicalId":197319,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th IAPR Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Remote Sensing (PRRS)","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125746746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
