Small area population forecasting faces numerous challenges, including complex underlying demographic processes, data sparsity, and short time series due to changing geographic boundaries. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for small area forecasting which combines proven demographic forecasting methods, an exponential smoothing based algorithm, and a machine learning based forecasting technique. The proposed forecasting combination contains four base models commonly used in demographic forecasting, a univariate forecasting model specifically suitable for forecasting yearly data, and a globally trained Light Gradient Boosting Model (LGBM) that exploits the similarities between a collection of population time series. In this study, three forecast combination techniques are investigated to weight the forecasts generated by these base models. We empirically evaluate our method, by preparing small area population forecasts for Australia and New Zealand. The proposed framework is able to achieve competitive results in terms of forecasting accuracy. Moreover, we show that the inclusion of the LGBM model always improves the accuracy of combination models on both datasets, relative to combination models which only include the demographic models. In particular, the results indicate that the proposed combination framework decreases the prevalence of relatively poor forecasts, while improving the reliability of small area population forecasts.

Estimating generalized measures of local neighbourhood context from multispectral satellite images using a convolutional neural network / Alex David Singleton in Computers, Environment and Urban Systems, vol 95 (July 2022)  

Public [article]  inComputers, Environment and Urban Systems > vol 95 (July 2022) . - n° 101802 Titre : Estimating generalized measures of local neighbourhood context from multispectral satellite images using a convolutional neural network Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Alex David Singleton, Auteur ; Dani Arribas-Bel, Auteur ; John Murray, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 101802 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image optique [Termes IGN] analyse de groupement [Termes IGN] analyse en composantes principales [Termes IGN] apprentissage automatique [Termes IGN] bâtiment [Termes IGN] carte d'occupation du sol [Termes IGN] classification par réseau neuronal convolutif [Termes IGN] Grande-Bretagne [Termes IGN] image multibande [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-MSI [Termes IGN] morphologie urbaine [Termes IGN] pondération [Termes IGN] processeur graphique Résumé : (auteur) The increased availability of high-resolution multispectral imagery captured by remote sensing platforms provides new opportunities for the characterisation and differentiation of urban context. The discovery of generalized latent representations from such data are however under researched within the social sciences. As such, this paper exploits advances in machine learning to implement a new method of capturing measures of urban context from multispectral satellite imagery at a very small area level through the application of a convolutional autoencoder (CAE). The utility of outputs from the CAE is enhanced through the application of spatial weighting, and the smoothed outputs are then summarised using cluster analysis to generate a typology comprising seven groups describing salient patterns of differentiated urban context. The limits of the technique are discussed with reference to the resolution of the satellite data utilised within the study and the interaction between the geography of the input data and the learned structure. The method is implemented within the context of Great Britain, however, is applicable to any location where similar high resolution multispectral imagery are available.

Global forecasting of ionospheric vertical total electron contents via ConvLSTM with spectrum analysis / Jinpei Chen in GPS solutions, vol 26 n° 3 (July 2022)  

Public [article]  inGPS solutions > vol 26 n° 3 (July 2022) . - n° 69 Titre : Global forecasting of ionospheric vertical total electron contents via ConvLSTM with spectrum analysis Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Jinpei Chen, Auteur ; Nan Zhi, Auteur ; Haofan Liao, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 69 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] analyse diachronique [Termes IGN] analyse spectrale [Termes IGN] apprentissage profond [Termes IGN] carte ionosphérique mondiale [Termes IGN] classification par réseau neuronal convolutif [Termes IGN] correction ionosphérique [Termes IGN] modèle dynamique [Termes IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes IGN] temps de convergence [Termes IGN] teneur verticale totale en électrons Résumé : (auteur) The widely used GNSS correction services for high precision positioning take advantage of accurate real-time TEC forecasting based on vertical total electron content (VTEC) maps. The methods for modeling and forecasting are mainly based on overly simplified assumptions, which in principle cannot reflect the real situations due to limitations of the mathematical formulations. Therefore, these methods cannot comprehensively capture the features of ionospheric TEC in spatial–temporal series. To overcome the problems caused by such assumptions, we combine ConvLSTM (convolutional long short-term memory) with spectrum analysis. The method allows the extraction of high-resolution spatial–temporal patterns of the ionospheric VTEC maps and accelerates the convergence time of neural networks. Extensive experiments have been carried out for short- and long-term forecasting and demonstrated that the performance of our method is better than other state-of-the-art models developed for various time series analysis methods. Based on the data from global ionospheric maps (GIMs) products, the results show that the root-mean-square error (RMSE) of global VTEC forecasting by our method substantially improves for two hours intervals over the years 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2019 compared to existing methods, specifically, 20–50% reduction on 1 or 2 h forecasting in terms of RMSE. In addition, the method is sufficient to support real-time forecasting since it takes less than one second to output global forecasting solutions. With these properties, we can facilitate real-time and highly accurate ionosphere correction services beneficial to numerous GNSS correct services and positioning terminals.

Improving remote sensing classification: A deep-learning-assisted model / Tsimur Davydzenka in Computers & geosciences, vol 164 (July 2022)  

Public [article]  inComputers & geosciences > vol 164 (July 2022) . - n° 105123 Titre : Improving remote sensing classification: A deep-learning-assisted model Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Tsimur Davydzenka, Auteur ; Pejman Tahmasebi, Auteur ; Mark Carroll, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 105123 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image optique [Termes IGN] apprentissage profond [Termes IGN] classification par réseau neuronal convolutif [Termes IGN] données d'entrainement (apprentissage automatique) [Termes IGN] image à haute résolution [Termes IGN] modèle stochastique [Termes IGN] précision de la classification Résumé : (auteur) In many industries and applications, obtaining and classifying remote sensing imagery plays a crucial role. The accuracy of classification, in particular the machine learning methods, mainly depends on a multitude of factors, among which one of the most important ones is the amount of training data. Obtaining sufficient amounts of training data, however, can be very difficult or costly, and one must find alternative ways to improve the accuracy of predictions. To this end, a possible solution that we provide in this study is to use a stochastic method for producing variations of the training images that will retain the important class-wide features and thereby enrich the machine learning's “understanding” of the variabilities. As such, we applied a stochastic algorithm to produce additional realizations of the limited input imagery and thereby significantly increase the final overall accuracy in a deep learning method. We found that by enlarging the initial training set by additional realizations, we are able to consistently improve classification accuracy, compared with generic image augmentation approaches. The results of this study show that there is a great opportunity to increase the accuracy of predictions when enough data are not available.

Beyond single receptive field: A receptive field fusion-and-stratification network for airborne laser scanning point cloud classification / Yongqiang Mao in ISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing, vol 188 (June 2022)  

Public [article]  inISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing > vol 188 (June 2022) . - pp 45 - 61 Titre : Beyond single receptive field: A receptive field fusion-and-stratification network for airborne laser scanning point cloud classification Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Yongqiang Mao, Auteur ; Kaiqiang chen, Auteur ; Wenhui Diao, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : pp 45 - 61 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Lasergrammétrie [Termes IGN] apprentissage automatique [Termes IGN] classification par réseau neuronal convolutif [Termes IGN] données laser [Termes IGN] données localisées 3D [Termes IGN] Perceptron multicouche [Termes IGN] représentation parcimonieuse [Termes IGN] réseau neuronal de graphes [Termes IGN] semis de points [Termes IGN] stratification de données [Termes IGN] voxel Résumé : (Auteur) The classification of airborne laser scanning (ALS) point clouds is a critical task of remote sensing and photogrammetry fields. Although recent deep learning-based methods have achieved satisfactory performance, they have ignored the unicity of the receptive field, which makes the ALS point cloud classification remain challenging for the distinguishment of the areas with complex structures and extreme scale variations. In this article, for the objective of configuring multi-receptive field features, we propose a novel receptive field fusion-and-stratification network (RFFS-Net). With a novel dilated graph convolution (DGConv) and its extension annular dilated convolution (ADConv) as basic building blocks, the receptive field fusion process is implemented with the dilated and annular graph fusion (DAGFusion) module, which obtains multi-receptive field feature representation through capturing dilated and annular graphs with various receptive regions. The stratification of the receptive fields with point sets of different resolutions as the calculation bases is performed with Multi-level Decoders nested in RFFS-Net and driven by the multi-level receptive field aggregation loss (MRFALoss) to drive the network to learn in the direction of the supervision labels with different resolutions. With receptive field fusion-and-stratification, RFFS-Net is more adaptable to the classification of regions with complex structures and extreme scale variations in large-scale ALS point clouds. Evaluated on the ISPRS Vaihingen 3D dataset, our RFFS-Net significantly outperforms the baseline (i.e. PointConv) approach by 5.3% on mF1 and 5.4% on mIoU, accomplishing an overall accuracy of 82.1%, an mF1 of 71.6%, and an mIoU of 58.2%. The experiments show that our RFFS-Net achieves a new state-of-the-art classification performance on powerline, car, and fence classes. Furthermore, experiments on the LASDU dataset and the 2019 IEEE-GRSS Data Fusion Contest dataset show that RFFS-Net achieves a new state-of-the-art classification performance.
