This is of particular interest for wildlife conservation: given a set of images acquired with an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and manually labeled ground truth, our goal is to train an animal detector that can be reused for repeated acquisitions, e.g., in follow-up years. Domain shifts between data sets typically prevent such a direct model application. We thus propose to bridge this gap using AL and introduce a new criterion called Transfer Sampling (TS). TS uses Optimal Transport (OT) to find corresponding regions between the source and the target data sets in the space of CNN activations. The CNN scores in the source data set are used to rank the samples according to their likelihood of being animals, and this ranking is transferred to the target data set. Unlike conventional AL criteria that exploit model uncertainty, TS focuses on very confident samples, thus allowing quick retrieval of true positives in the target data set, where positives are typically extremely rare and difficult to find by visual inspection. We extend TS with a new window cropping strategy that further accelerates sample retrieval. Our experiments show that with both strategies combined, less than half a percent of oracle-provided labels are enough to find almost 80% of the animals in challenging sets of UAV images, beating all baselines by a margin.

Novel adaptive histogram trend similarity approach for land cover change detection by using bitemporal very-high-resolution remote sensing images / Zhi Yong Lv in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 57 n° 12 (December 2019)

However, the intraclass spectral variance in VHR remote sensing images is usually larger than that of median-low remote sensing images. Furthermore, the bitemporal images are usually acquired under different atmospheric conditions, sun height, soil moisture, and other factors. Consequently, in practical applications, many pseudo changes are presented in the detected map. In this paper, an adaptive histogram trend (AHT) similarity approach is promoted to quantitatively measure the magnitude between the corresponding pixels in bitemporal images in terms of change semantic. In the proposed approach, to reduce the phenological effect on the bitemporal images of land cover change detection (LCCD), we first define the quantitative description of AHT. Second, the change magnitudes between pairwise pixels are quantitatively measured by an improved bin-to-bin (B2B) distance between the corresponding AHTs. Then, the change magnitudes between two entire bitemporal images are measured AHT-by-AHT. Finally, binary threshold methods, such as the Otsu method or the double-window flexible pace search (DFPS) method, are used to divide the change magnitude image into binary change detection maps and obtain the final change detection map. The performance of the AHT-based LCCD approach is verified by four pairs of VHR remote-sensing images that correspond to two types of real land cover change cases. The detected results based on the four pairs of bitemporal VHR images outperformed the compared state-of-the-art LCCD methods.

Quantification of the adjacency effect on measurements in the thermal infrared region / Xiaopo Zheng in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 57 n° 12 (December 2019)

As the spatial resolution of thermal infrared (TIR) images increases, the adjacency effect may influence land surface temperature (LST) retrieval accuracy in TIR remote sensing. However, to our knowledge, few studies have focused on quantifying this adjacency effect on TIR measurements. In this study, a forward adjacency effect radiative transfer model (FAERTM) was developed to quantify the adjacency effect on high-spatial-resolution TIR measurements. The model was verified to be in good agreement with moderate resolution atmospheric transmission (MODTRAN) code, with a discrepancy 3 K in some cases. These findings indicate that the adjacency effect should be considered when retrieving LSTs from TIR measurements, at least in some specific conditions. The proposed FAERTM provides a useful model for quantifying and addressing the adjacency effect on TIR measurements Numéro de notice : A2019-600 Affiliation des auteurs : non IGN Thématique : IMAGERIE Nature : Article nature-HAL : ArtAvecCL-RevueIntern DOI : 10.1109/TGRS.2019.2928525 Date de publication en ligne : 06/08/2019 En ligne : http://doi.org/10.1109/TGRS.2019.2928525 Format de la ressource électronique : URL article Permalink : https://documentation.ensg.eu/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=94599 [article]

Polarization dependence of azimuth cutoff from quad-pol SAR images / Huimin Li in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 57 n° 12 (December 2019)

In this paper, a large number of quad-polarized SAR images are analyzed to help assess how the standard SAR imaging transformation applies to all polarization channels. Foremost, the azimuth cutoff, a parameter essentially governed by the detected wave motions, is today solely related to radar configuration and the ocean wave spectrum but not to the polarization configuration. As obtained, the analyses based on quad-polarized Radarsat-2 and Gaofen-3 products document the distinct dependence of azimuth cutoff on polarization and incidence angle. Especially for cross-polarized VH measurements, azimuth cutoff estimates are generally larger than copolarized HH ones, the latter already being larger than values estimated under VV configuration. This trend increases with the incidence angle. The systematic comparisons between SAR measurements and simulations further demonstrate that the present SAR nonlinear transformation may not properly take into account the differing coherence time associated with the multi-polarized observation of ocean scenes. In particular, to reproduce the large azimuth cutoff parameters of cross-polarized images, a reduced coherence time shall be expected. This measurable sensitivity shall enhance the capabilities of polarized SAR systems to precisely derive more ocean surface properties, especially the influence of wave breakers, by combining both the copolarization and cross-polarization measurements.
