Like other altimetric missions, SARAL carries a passive microwave radiometer (PMR) for wet tropospheric correction to SSH. In the present study, new algorithms are developed for the retrieval of cloud liquid water (CLW) and total precipitable water vapor (TPW) over the global oceans from PMR measurements of the brightness temperatures. A radiative transfer and genetic algorithm based retrieval scheme is proposed for the estimation of CLW and TPW from SARAL PMR. The comparisons of CLW from PMR with independent measurements from GPM-GMI and SSMIS within and outside ±40° latitudes show correlation (R) of 0.86 and 0.83, bias of 0.7 and −3.61 mg/cm2, and root mean square error (RMSE) of 8.42 and 8.07 mg/cm2, respectively. Similarly, TPW from PMR with GPM-GMI and SSMIS show R of 0.99 and 0.98, bias of −0.04 and −0.03 g/cm2 and RMSE of 0.17 and 0.17 g/cm2, respectively. The retrieval accuracy of CLW and TPW from the new algorithms is compared with these parameters provided in the SARAL geophysical data records as finished products, which showed substantial improvement in the quality of the parameters from the new algorithm.

Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) offers reflectance data over the visible to shortwave-infrared range. OLI offers several advantages, such as adequate spatial and spectral resolution, and 16 day repeat coverage, furthermore, spectral indices derived from Landsat 8 OLI possess great potential for evaluating the status of vegetation. Additionally, classification algorithms are essential for generating accurate maps. Recently, multi-Grained Cascade Forest, which is also called deep forest, was proposed, and it was shown to give highly competitive performance for classification. However, the ability of this algorithm to generate crop maps with satellite data had not yet been evaluated. In this study, the reflectance at 7 bands and 57 spectral indices calculated from Landsat 8 OLI data were evaluated for its potential for crop type identification.

Improving the spatial bias correction algorithm in SMOS image reconstruction processor : validation of soil moisture retrievals with in situ data / Ali Khazaal in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 57 n° 1 (January 2019)

The SMOS payload is a 2-D interferometer operating at L-band that consists of 69 elementary antennas located along a Y-shaped structure. Important spatial biases persist in the retrieved brightness temperature (BT) images mainly due to the phenomenon of aliasing inside the field of view of SMOS but also due to the Gibbs oscillations near land/ocean transitions. To minimize these biases, a differential image reconstruction algorithm is used in the operational processor that reduces the contrast of the image to be retrieved. To do that, the contribution of a constant artificial temperature map is removed from the measurements prior to reconstruction and then added back after the reconstruction. In this paper, we show that strong residual biases are still present in the retrieved images. To reduce them, we propose to improve the bias correction algorithm by using a more realistic artificial temperature scene based on separating the land and ocean regions and assigning a constant temperature over land and a Fresnel BT model over the ocean. The artificial scene is also improved by means of representing each pixel by its water fraction percentage to smooth the land/ocean transitions. The improved algorithm is validated over the ocean by comparing the retrieved temperatures to a forward geophysical model but also over land by comparing the retrieved soil moisture to in situ measurements.

EMVS : Event-based Multi-View Stereo : 3D reconstruction with an event camera in real-time / Henri Rebecq in International journal of computer vision, vol 126 n° 12 (December 2018)

They offer significant advantages over standard cameras, namely a very high dynamic range, no motion blur, and a latency in the order of microseconds. However, because the output is composed of a sequence of asynchronous events rather than actual intensity images, traditional vision algorithms cannot be applied, so that a paradigm shift is needed. We introduce the problem of event-based multi-view stereo (EMVS) for event cameras and propose a solution to it. Unlike traditional MVS methods, which address the problem of estimating dense 3D structure from a set of known viewpoints, EMVS estimates semi-dense 3D structure from an event camera with known trajectory. Our EMVS solution elegantly exploits two inherent properties of an event camera: (1) its ability to respond to scene edges—which naturally provide semi-dense geometric information without any pre-processing operation—and (2) the fact that it provides continuous measurements as the sensor moves. Despite its simplicity (it can be implemented in a few lines of code), our algorithm is able to produce accurate, semi-dense depth maps, without requiring any explicit data association or intensity estimation. We successfully validate our method on both synthetic and real data. Our method is computationally very efficient and runs in real-time on a CPU.

Visible + Near Infrared spectroscopy as taxonomic tool for identifying birch species / Mulualem Tigabu in Silva fennica, vol 52 n° 4 (September 2018)

The aim of this study was to evaluate the taxonomic importance of using visible + near infrared (Vis + NIR) spectra of single seeds for differentiating Betula pendula Roth and Betula pubescens Ehrh. Seeds from several families (controlled crossings of known parent trees) of each species were used and Vis + NIR reflectance spectra were obtained from single seeds. Multivariate discriminant models were developed by Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures – Discriminant Analysis (OPLS-DA). The OPLS-DA model fitted on Vis + NIR spectra recognized B. pubescens with 100% classification accuracy while the prediction accuracy of class membership for B. pendula was 99%. However, the discriminant models fitted on NIR spectra alone resulted in 100% classification accuracies for both species. Absorption bands accounted for distinguishing between birch species were attributed to differences in color and chemical composition, presumably polysaccharides, proteins and fatty acids, of the seeds. In conclusion, the results demonstrate the feasibility of NIR spectroscopy as taxonomic tool for classification of species that have morphological resemblance.
