This study aims to produce ground-level PM1 and PM2.5 concentrations at a 1-km spatial resolution across China based on the newly released MODIS MAIAC AOD product using a newly developed space-time extremely randomized trees (STET) model. Daily PMl and PM2.5 concentrations were estimated from insitu surface PM2.5 measurements, meteorological and ancillary variables. The 10-fold cross-validation (CV) approach is selected for model validation. The results show that the STET model shows a high accuracy in daily PM1 (PM2.5) estimates in 2018 with a high coefficient of determination equal to 0.76 (0.89), a low root-mean-square error of $9.5 (10.3) mu mathrm{g}/mathrm{m}^{3}$, and a low mean prediction error of $5.9 (6.7) mu mathrm{g}/mathrm{m}^{3}$. The STET model is robust and can outperform most previous studies, benefitting from the ensemble regression approach and the synergy of space-time information. This high-resolution and high-quality PMx data set in China (i.e., ChinaHighPMx) may thus be very useful for related air pollution and human health studies, especially for urban areas.","PeriodicalId":444267,"journal":{"name":"IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127157454","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}

However, there has not yet been a study expatiating and summarizing the current situation of RS applications with TM. This paper intends to systematically summarize the application of TM in RS images and to conduct several typical experiments for comparison. Specifically, the architecture of our work can be explained as follows: 1) the theory of TM; 2) the applications of RS based on TM; 3) experimental analysis of typical TM methods to provide reference for further understanding, and 4) summary and prospects for guiding further research into TM for RS data.","PeriodicalId":444267,"journal":{"name":"IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127200236","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 framework can both utilize the logicality of traditional model-driven methods, and the high efficiency of data-driven methods for parameters optimizing.

In the second stage, the aperture size (widths of the fractures) in different positions are estimated across scales using curvature analysis. In a third step, the fractures can be automatically extracted using a growing algorithm.

However, the traditional multichannel reconstruction methods are not suitable because of range-dependent and time-variant steering vector caused by the nonlinear trajectory. To address the issue, a novel unambiguous signal reconstruction algorithm is proposed in this paper. According to the geometry model, the properties of range-dependent and time-variant steering vector are analyzed. Then, a range-dependent and time-variant inter-channel phase compensation method is proposed to correct the space time spectrum, and the constant steering vector is obtained. Before the reconstruction, the range walk correction (RWC) is performed to remove the mismatch between the reconstruction filters and the squinted signal. Furthermore, a modified spatial domain filter is proposed to reconstruct the unambiguous Doppler spectrum. Finally, simulation results are presented to validate the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":444267,"journal":{"name":"IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124934512","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}
