The structure-orientation parameter is one of the averaged Stokes vector-based discriminators which is sensitive to the composition of equivalent horizontal and vertical structures. In the proposed method, the structure-orientation parameters is compensated by employing the scattered power information to remove the influence of the topography. The final distinguishing result is generated based on the statistical feature of the compensated parameters. The experiments using several sets of ALOS2-PALSAR2 level 1.1 data prove that the proposed method has high performance for forest-type distinguishing.

Tomographic synthetic aperture radar (TomoSAR), as a three-dimensional imaging technique, has already been successfully used in forest areas to retrieve the forest height. The nonparametric iterative adaptive approach (IAA) has been recently introduced in TomoSAR, achieving a good compromise between high resolution and computing efficiency. However, the performance of the IAA algorithm is significantly degraded in the case of a small tomographic aperture. To overcome this shortcoming, this paper proposes the robust IAA (RIAA) algorithm for SAR tomography. The proposed approach follows the framework of the IAA algorithm, but also considers the noise term in the covariance matrix estimation. By doing so, the condition number of the covariance matrix can be prevented from being too large, improving the robustness of the forest height estimation with the IAA algorithm. A set of simulated experiments was carried out, and the results validated the superiority of the RIAA estimator in the case of a small tomographic aperture. Moreover, a number of fully polarimetric L-band airborne tomographic SAR images acquired from the ESA BioSAR 2008 campaign over the Krycklan Catchment, Northern Sweden, were collected for test purposes. The results showed that the RIAA algorithm performed better in reconstructing the vertical structure of the forest than the IAA algorithm in areas with a small tomographic aperture. Finally, the forest height was estimated by both the RIAA and IAA TomoSAR methods, and the estimation accuracy of the RIAA algorithm was 2.01 m, which is more accurate than the IAA algorithm with 3.25 m.

Graph convolutional networks by architecture search for PolSAR image classification / Hongying Liu in Remote sensing, vol 13 n° 7 (April 2021)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing > vol 13 n° 7 (April 2021) . - n° 1404 Titre : Graph convolutional networks by architecture search for PolSAR image classification Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Hongying Liu, Auteur ; Derong Xu, Auteur ; Tianwen Zhu, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 1404 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image radar et applications [Termes IGN] apprentissage profond [Termes IGN] bande L [Termes IGN] classification par nuées dynamiques [Termes IGN] classification par réseau neuronal convolutif [Termes IGN] classification par séparateurs à vaste marge [Termes IGN] classification semi-dirigée [Termes IGN] échantillon [Termes IGN] graphe [Termes IGN] image AIRSAR [Termes IGN] image radar moirée [Termes IGN] noeud [Termes IGN] polarimétrie radar [Termes IGN] réseau neuronal de graphes Résumé : (auteur) Classification of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) images has achieved good results due to the excellent fitting ability of neural networks with a large number of training samples. However, the performance of most convolutional neural networks (CNNs) degrades dramatically when only a few labeled training samples are available. As one well-known class of semi-supervised learning methods, graph convolutional networks (GCNs) have gained much attention recently to address the classification problem with only a few labeled samples. As the number of layers grows in the network, the parameters dramatically increase. It is challenging to determine an optimal architecture manually. In this paper, we propose a neural architecture search method based GCN (ASGCN) for the classification of PolSAR images. We construct a novel graph whose nodes combines both the physical features and spatial relations between pixels or samples to represent the image. Then we build a new searching space whose components are empirically selected from some graph neural networks for architecture search and develop the differentiable architecture search method to construction our ASGCN. Moreover, to address the training of large-scale images, we present a new weighted mini-batch algorithm to reduce the computing memory consumption and ensure the balance of sample distribution, and also analyze and compare with other similar training strategies. Experiments on several real-world PolSAR datasets show that our method has improved the overall accuracy as much as 3.76% than state-of-the-art methods.

Forest height estimation using a single-pass airborne L-band polarimetric and interferometric SAR system and tomographic techniques / Yue Huang in Remote sensing, Vol 13 n° 3 (February 2021)

This particular dataset is acquired by using both ping-pong and non-ping-pong modes, which permit forming a dual-baseline TomoSAR configuration, i.e., an extreme configuration for tomographic processing. A tomographic approach, based on polarimetric Capon and MUSIC estimators, is proposed to estimate the elevation of tree top and of underlying ground, and hence forest height is estimated. The resulting forest DTM and DSM over the test site are validated against LiDAR-derived estimates, demonstrating the undeniable capability of the single-pass L-band PolInSAR system for forest monitoring.

Optimizing flood mapping using multi-synthetic aperture radar images for regions of the lower mekong basin in Vietnam / Vu Anh Tuan in European journal of remote sensing, vol 54 n° 1 (2021)

Information on this characteristic is indispensable for flood monitoring. Recently, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data have been increasing in quality and quantity. This allows more flood studies conducted over large areas regardless of cloud and weather conditions and provides advantages including clear surface water classification based on SAR scattering mechanisms for low values (open water) and high values (inundated vegetation, etc.). However, challenges remain due to sources of uncertainties, such as atmospheric disturbances and vegetation masking parts of water surfaces. Therefore, in this study, we aim to optimize flood mapping processes on flooded vegetation that generated high-value pixels based on a SAR scattering mechanism called double bounce that classifies vegetative flooded water in L-band SAR images. This optimization is nearly impossible using Sentinel-1 scenes. Backscattering of time-series Sentinel-1 and ALOS-2 images acquired for the 2018 and 2019 flood season was analysed, thresholded and hybridized for flood mapping of a study site in the Tam Nong district of the Dong Thap Province of Vietnam. We found that the accuracy of SAR flood maps was improved compared to ground truth data when the SAR-extracted vegetative-flooded plains were considered flooded.
