[Termes IGN] vecteur aléatoire multidimensionnelRésumé : (Auteur) The Bayesian approach allows an intuitive way to derive the methods of statistics. Probability is defined as a measure of the plausibility of statements or propositions. Three rules are sufficient to obtain the laws of probability. If the statements refer to the numerical values of variables, the so-called random variables, univariate and multivariate distributions follow. They lead to the point estimation by which unknown quantities, i.e. unknown parameters, are computed from measurements. The unknown parameters are random variables, they are fixed quantities in traditional statistics which is not founded on Bayes’ theorem. Bayesian statistics therefore recommends itself for Monte Carlo methods, which generate random variates from given distributions. Monte Carlo methods, of course, can also be applied in traditional statistics. The unknown parameters, are introduced as functions of the measurements, and the Monte Carlo methods give the covariance matrix and the expectation of these functions. A confidence region is derived where the unknown parameters are situated with a given probability. Following a method of traditional statistics, hypotheses are tested by determining whether a value for an unknown parameter lies inside or outside the confidence region. The error propagation of a random vector by the Monte Carlo methods is presented as an application. If the random vector results from a nonlinearly transformed vector, its covariance matrix and its expectation follow from the Monte Carlo estimate. This saves a considerable amount of derivatives to be computed, and errors of the linearization are avoided. The Monte Carlo method is therefore efficient. If the functions of the measurements are given by a sum of two or more random vectors with different multivariate distributions, the resulting distribution is generally not known. The Monte Carlo methods are then needed to obtain the covariance matrix and the expectation of the sum.

[Termes IGN] visualisationRésumé : (auteur) A new method for dealing with systematic effects in laser scanning and visualizing them by confidence regions is derived. The standard deviations of the systematic effects are obtained by repeatedly measuring three-dimensional coordinates by the laser scanner. In addition, autocovariance and cross-covariance functions are computed by the repeated measurements and give the correlations of the systematic effects. The normal distribution for the measurements and the multivariate uniform distribution for the systematic effects are applied to generate random variates for the measurements and random variates for the measurements plus systematic effects. Monte Carlo estimates of the expectations and the covariance matrix of the measurements with systematic effects are computed. The densities for the confidence ellipsoid for the measurements and the confidence region for the measurements with systematic effects are obtained by relative frequencies. They only depend on the size of the rectangular volume elements for which the densities are determined. The problem of sorting the densities is solved by sorting distances together with the densities. This allows a visualization of the confidence ellipsoid for the measurements and the confidence region for the measurements with systematic effects.

[Termes IGN] valeur aberranteRésumé : (auteur) The concept of reliability was introduced into geodesy by Baarda (A testing procedure for use in geodetic networks. Publications on Geodesy, vol. 2. Netherlands Geodetic Commission, Delft, 1968). It gives a measure for the ability of a parameter estimation to detect outliers and leads in case of one outlier to the MDB, the minimal detectable bias or outlier. The MDB depends on the non-centrality parameter of the χ2-distribution, as the variance factor of the linear model is assumed to be known, on the size of the outlier test of an individual observation which is set to 0.001 and on the power of the test which is generally chosen to be 0.80. Starting from an estimated variance factor, the F-distribution is applied here. Furthermore, the size of the test of the individual observation is a function of the number of outliers to keep the size of the test of all observations constant, say 0.05. The power of the test is set to 0.80. The MDBs for multiple outliers are derived here under these assumptions. The method is applied to the reconstruction of a bell-shaped surface measured by a laser scanner. The MDBs are introduced as outliers for the alternative hypotheses of the outlier tests. A Monte Carlo method reveals that due to the way of introducing the outliers, the false null hypotheses cannot be rejected on the average with a power of 0.80 if the MDBs are not enlarged by a factor.

[Termes IGN] télémètre laser à balayageRésumé : (Auteur) For deriving the robust estimation by the EM (expectation maximization) algorithm for a model, which is more general than the linear model, the nonlinear Gauss Helmert (GH) model is chosen. It contains the errors-in-variables model as a special case. The nonlinear GH model is difficult to handle because of the linearization and the Gauss Newton iterations. Approximate values for the observations have to be introduced for the linearization. Robust estimates by the EM algorithm based on the variance-inflation model and the mean-shift model have been derived for the linear model in case of homoscedasticity. To derive these two EM algorithms for the GH model, different variances are introduced for the observations and the expectations of the measurements defined by the linear model are replaced by the ones of the GH model. The two robust methods are applied to fit by the GH model a polynomial surface of second degree to the measured three-dimensional coordinates of a laser scanner. This results in detecting more outliers than by the linear model.

[Termes IGN] ondeletteRésumé : (Auteur) GOCO02S is a combined satellite-only geopotential model, regularized from degrees 180 to 250 of the expansion into spherical harmonics. To investigate the start of the regularization, the normal equations of GOCO02S have been used to compute additional geopotential models by regularizations beginning at degrees 160, 200, 220 and with no regularization. Three different methods are applied to determine where to start the regularization. The simplest one considers the decrease of the degree variances of the not regularized solution. The second one tests for the same solution the hypothesis that the square root of the degree variance is equal to the value computed by the estimated harmonic coefficients. If the hypothesis has to be rejected for a certain degree, the error degree variance is so large that the estimated harmonic coefficients cannot be trusted anymore so that the regularization has to start at that degree. The third method uses the density anomalies by which the disturbing potential is caused resulting from the geopotential model. The density anomalies are well suited to visualize the effects of the higher degree harmonics. In contrast to the base functions of the harmonic coefficients with global support, the density anomalies are expressed by a B-spline surface with local support. Multi-scale representations were applied and the hypotheses tested that the wavelet coefficients are equal to zero. Accepting the hypotheses means that nonsignificant wavelet coefficients were determined which lead to nonsignificant density anomalies. By comparing these anomalies for different regularizations, the degree where to start the regularization is determined. It turns out that beginning the regularization at degree 180, as was done for GOCO02S, is a correct choice.
