This paper presents the estimation of snow depth over north‐western Indian Himalaya using the 18.7H and 36.5H GHz channels of Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer‐EOS (AMSR‐E). The Microwave Emission Model of Layered Snowpacks (MEMLS) was used along with AMSR‐E to understand the difference in the snow pack emitted and sensor received signals due to the prevailing topography. The study shows that the brightness temperature of AMSR‐E and MEMLS are comparable at 18.7 GHz with some differences in their values at 36.5 GHz showing the sensitivity of this channel to the prevailing topography. Three years of AMSR‐E data were used to modify the 1.59 algorithm to suit the terrain and snow conditions of the north‐western Indian Himalayas. The retrieved snow depth is then compared with ground observations. Data from December to February 2003–2006 were used for the study of snow depths less than 1 m. The modified algorithm estimates the snow depth better than the old algorithm over the mountainous terrains of the north‐western Himalayas. 相似文献

Sea surface temperature (SST) measurements from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for the Earth Observing System (AMSR‐E) and the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) are compared with near‐surface temperature (foundation SST) in situ measurements obtained from Argo floats over the Indian Ocean. Spatial variation was compared for 2002–2006 and 11 floats were used for temporal variation collocated observations. The results show that TMI and AMSR‐E SST measurements are slightly overestimated during the pre‐ and post‐monsoon seasons and underestimated during the monsoon season. Statistical analysis shows that the SST from the AMSR‐E is better correlated with the Argo foundation SST compared to the TMI. The standard deviation (SD) and root mean square error (RMSE) for AMSR‐E SST are 0.58°C and 0.35°C, respectively, over the Equatorial Indian Ocean (EIO). The corresponding values for the TMI are 0.66°C and 0.47°C. Over the Arabian Sea the SD values are slightly higher compared to the EIO values, whereas RMSE values are less for both TMI and AMSR‐E SST. These retrieval accuracies are above the expected retrieval accuracy. The seasonal average spatial distribution of AMSR‐E SST shows a better match with the Argo foundation SST compared to TMI SST distributions. The robustness of the good spatial match during the monsoon season may be attributed to strong winds. 相似文献

The extreme learning machine (ELM), a single hidden layer neural network based supervised classifier is used for remote sensing classifications. In comparison to the backpropagation neural network, which requires the setting of several user‐defined parameters and may produce local minima, the ELM requires setting of one parameter, and produces a unique solution for a set of randomly assigned weights. Two datasets, one multispectral and another hyperspectral, were used for classification. Accuracies of 89.0% and 91.1% are achieved with this classifier using multispectral and hyperspectral data, respectively. Results suggest that the ELM provides a classification accuracy comparable to a backpropagation neural network with both datasets. The computational cost using the ELM classifier (1.25 s with Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM+) and 0.675 s with Digital Airborne Imaging Spectrometer (DAIS) data) is very small in comparison to the backpropagation neural network. 相似文献

This paper describes a WWWassisted fax system (WAX) that is developed to provide reliable and enhanced Internet faxtofax communication. It integrates the easytouse WWW interface with conventional faxing procedures, resulting in an Internet fax system which not only circumvents the cost of long distance fax charges but also adds enhanced functionality not otherwise possible. The WAX system comprises two gateways, namely, the FaxIn and the FaxOut Gateways. The FaxIn Gateway accepts fax messages over Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) and stores them in a transit database. The system interfaces with the user over the WWW to provide access to his stored faxes, with the basic ability to send them out over the Internet to recipients. The FaxOut Gateway receives fax files from the FaxIn Gateway through the Internet and transmits them out to the intended recipients via the local PSTN. WAX users do not require any additional hardware except for a fax machine and a personal computer with Internet connectivity to gain access to WAX via any WWW browser. In addition, WAX provides a host of other enhanced features such as the ability to construct minifaxes from a single incoming fax as well as dynamically attach cover notes to outgoing faxes. 相似文献

Traceability is a key issue to ensure consistency among software artifacts of subsequent phases of the development cycle. However, few works have so far addressed the theme of tracing object oriented (OO) design into its implementation and evolving it. This paper presents an approach to checking the compliance of OO design with respect to source code and support its evolution. The process works on design artifacts expressed in the OMT (Object Modeling Technique) notation and accepts C++ source code. It recovers an “as is” design from the code, compares the recovered design with the actual design and helps the user to deal with inconsistencies. The recovery process exploits the edit distance computation and the maximum match algorithm to determine traceability links between design and code. The output is a similarity measure associated to design‐code class pairs, which can be classified as matched and unmatched by means of a maximum likelihood threshold. A graphic display of the design with different green levels associated to different levels of match and red for the unmatched classes is provided as a support to update the design and improve its traceability to the code. 相似文献

Abstract: In this self‐study, the author gained in‐depth understanding of how to plan and implement problem‐based learning (PBL), a student‐centred approach to teaching and learning that is driven by messy, open‐ended problems. This paper focuses primarily on the issues and concerns that arose as she developed and implemented a modified form of traditional PBL (Barrows, 1996) in large, pre‐service science‐teacher education classes. To view the research from many perspectives, a variety of data collection methods and sources were used, including field notes, semi‐structured interviews, student‐generated documents, and student journals. The outcomes of this study describe challenges (problem development, facilitation of groups, and assessment) encountered by the author as she planned for and implemented PBL. Furthermore, changes in the author's classroom practice, the connection between these changes and constructivist learning principles, and implications for science‐teacher education are addressed. 相似文献

This paper addresses the cross‐calibration of the infrared channels 4 (3.9 µm), 9 (10.8 µm) and 10 (12.0 µm) of the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infra‐Red Imager (SEVIRI) onboard the Meteosat Second Generation 1 (MSG1) satellite with the channels of the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) onboard Terra. The cross‐calibrations, including the Ray‐Matching (RM) method and the Radiative Transfer Modelling (RTM) method, were developed and implemented over a tropical area using SEVIRI and MODIS measurements of July 2005 and July 2006 with absolute view zenith angle differences (|ΔVZA|)<0.5°, absolute view azimuth angle differences (|ΔVAA|)<0.5° and absolute time differences (|ΔTime|)<10 min. The results obtained by the RM and RTM methods revealed calibration discrepancies between the two sensors. The results obtained by the RM method were consistent with previously published results. The results obtained by the RTM method were consistent with the results obtained by the RM method if the temperature differences caused by the spectral differences between the two sensors were taken into account. From the cross‐calibration results obtained by the two methods, the use of the results obtained by the RTM method to recalibrate the SEVIRI data is recommended. The recalibrations remove the overestimation of the Land Surface Temperature (LST) retrieved from the SEVIRI data by a split‐window method. 相似文献

The extraction of texture features from high‐resolution remote sensing imagery provides a complementary source of data for those applications in which the spectral information is not sufficient for identification or classification of spectrally similar landscape features. This study presents the results of grey‐level co‐occurrence matrix (GLCM) and wavelet transform (WT) texture analysis for forest and non‐forest vegetation types differentiation in QuickBird imagery. Using semivariogram fitting, the optimal GLCM windows for the land cover classes within the scene were determined. These optimal window sizes were then applied to eight GLCM texture measures (mean, variance, homogeneity, dissimilarity, contrast, entropy, angular second moment, and correlation) for the scene classification. Using wavelet transformation, up to five levels of macro‐texture were computed and tested in the classification process. Comparing the classification results, (1) the spectral‐only bands classification gave an overall accuracy of 58.69%; (2) the statistically derived 21×21 optimal mean texture combined with spectral information gave the best results among the GLCM optimal windows with an accuracy of 73.70%; and (3) the combined optimal WT‐texture levels 4 and 5 gave an accuracy of 63.56%. The combined classification of these three optimal results gave an overall accuracy of 77.93%. The results indicate that even though vegetation texture was generally measured better by the GLCM‐mean texture (micro‐textures) than by WT‐derived texture (macro‐textures), the results show that the micro–macro texture combination would improve the differentiation and classification of the overall vegetation types. Overall, the results suggests that computer‐assisted classification of high‐spatial‐resolution remotely sensed imagery has a good potential to augment the present ground‐based forest inventory methods. 相似文献

In this letter, a modification to a phase–correlation‐(PC‐)based supervised classification method for hyperspectral data is proposed. An adaptive approach using different numbers of multiple class representatives (CRs) extracted using PC‐based k‐means clustering for each class is compared with the use of selecting a small, pre‐determined number of dissimilar CRs. PC is used as a distance measure in k‐means clustering to determine the spectral similarity between each pixel and cluster centre. The number of representatives for each class is chosen adaptively, depending on the number of training samples in each class. Classification is performed for each pixel according to the maximum value of PCs obtained between test samples and the CRs. Experimental results show that the adaptive method gave the highest classification accuracy (CA). Experiments on the effect of reducing the size of the feature vectors found that CA increased as the feature vector decreased. 相似文献

One of the applications of crop simulation models is to estimate crop yield during the current growing season. Several studies have tried to integrate crop simulation models with remotely sensed data through data‐assimilation methods. This approach has the advantage of allowing reinitialization of model parameters with remotely sensed observations to improve model performance. In this study, the Cropping System Model‐CERES‐Maize was integrated with the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) leaf area index (LAI) products for estimating corn yield in the state of Indiana, USA. This procedure, inversion of crop simulation model, facilitates several different user input modes and outputs a series of agronomic and biophysical parameters, including crop yield. The estimated corn yield in 2000 compared reasonably well with the US Department of Agriculture National Agricultural Statistics Service statistics for most counties. Using the seasonal LAI in the optimization procedure produced the best results compared with only the green‐up LAIs or the highest LAI values. Planting, emergence and maturation dates, and N fertilizer application rates were also estimated at a regional level. Further studies will include investigating model uncertainties and using other MODIS products, such as the enhanced vegetation index. 相似文献

The relevance vector machine (RVM), a Bayesian extension of the support vector machine (SVM), has considerable potential for the analysis of remotely sensed data. Here, the RVM is introduced and used to derive a multi‐class classification of land cover with an accuracy of 91.25%, a level comparable to that achieved by a suite of popular image classifiers including the SVM. Critically, however, the output of the RVM includes an estimate of the posterior probability of class membership. This output may be used to illustrate the uncertainty of the class allocations on a per‐case basis and help to identify possible routes to further enhance classification accuracy. 相似文献

This paper explores the potential of an artificial immune‐based supervised classification algorithm for land‐cover classification. This classifier is inspired by the human immune system and possesses properties similar to nonlinear classification, self/non‐self identification, and negative selection. Landsat ETM+ data of an area lying in Eastern England near the town of Littleport are used to study the performance of the artificial immune‐based classifier. A univariate decision tree and maximum likelihood classifier were used to compare its performance in terms of classification accuracy and computational cost. Results suggest that the artificial immune‐based classifier works well in comparison with the maximum likelihood and the decision‐tree classifiers in terms of classification accuracy. The computational cost using artificial immune based classifier is more than the decision tree but less than the maximum likelihood classifier. Another data set from an area in Spain is also used to compare the performance of immune based supervised classifier with maximum likelihood and decision‐tree classification algorithms. Results suggest an improved performance with the immune‐based classifier in terms of classification accuracy with this data set, too. The design of an artificial immune‐based supervised classifier requires several user‐defined parameters to be set, so this work is extended to study the effect of varying the values of six parameters on classification accuracy. Finally, a comparison with a backpropagation neural network suggests that the neural network classifier provides higher classification accuracies with both data sets, but the results are not statistically significant. 相似文献

With singular value decomposition (SVD) and robust 2‐dimensional fitting phase correlation algorithms, it is possible to achieve pixel‐to‐pixel image co‐registration at sub‐pixel accuracy via local feature matching. However, the method often fails in featureless and low correlation areas making it not robust for co‐registration of images with considerable spectral differences and large featureless ground objects. A median shift propagation (MSP) technique is proposed to eliminate the problem, in a phase correlation and Normalized Cross‐Correlation (NCC) combined approach. The experiment results using images from different sensor platforms and spectral bands indicate that the new method is very robust to featureless and low correlation areas and can achieve very accurate pixel‐to‐pixel image co‐registration with good tolerance of spectral and spatial differences between images. The method will significantly improve change detection in various remote sensing applications. 相似文献
