Abstract :
Lidar waveforms are 1D signals representing a train of echoes caused by reflections at different targets. Modeling these echoes with the appropriate parametric function is useful to retrieve information about the physical characteristics of the targets. This paper presents a new probabilistic model based on a marked point process which reconstructs the echoes from recorded discrete waveforms as a sequence of parametric curves. Such an approach allows to fit each mode of a waveform with the most suitable function and to deal with both, symmetric and asymmetric, echoes. The model takes into account a data term, which measures the coherence between the models and the waveforms, and a regularization term, which introduces prior knowledge on the reconstructed signal. The exploration of the associated configuration space is performed by a Reversible Jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampler coupled with simulated annealing. Experiments with different kinds of lidar signals, especially from urban scenes, show the high potential of the proposed approach. To further demonstrate the advantages of the suggested method, actual laser scans are classified and the results are reported. |

Abstract :
This paper presents a new stochastic marked point process for describing images in terms of a finite library of geometric objects. Image analysis based on conventional marked point processes has already produced convincing results but at the expense of parameter tuning, computing time, and model specificity. Our more general multimarked point process has simpler parametric setting, yields notably shorter computing times, and can be applied to a variety of applications. Both linear and areal primitives extracted from a library of geometric objects are matched to a given image using a probabilistic Gibbs model, and a Jump-Diffusion process is performed to search for the optimal object configuration. Experiments with remotely sensed images and natural textures show that the proposed approach has good potential. We conclude with a discussion about the insertion of more complex object interactions in the model by studying the compromise between model complexity and efficiency. |

Abstract :
We propose a new variational model to locate points in 2-dimensional biological images. To this purpose we introduce a suitable functional whose minimizers are given by the points we want to detect. In order to provide numerical experiments we replace this energy with a sequence of a more treatable functionals by means of the notion of Gamma-convergence. |

Résumé :
Dans cet article, nous nous intéressons à la régularisation de problèmes inverses reposant sur des critères l1 . Nous séparons ces critères en deux catégories : ceux qui favorisent la régularisation des signaux (à variation totale bornée par exemple) et ceux qui expriment le fait qu'un signal admet une représentation parcimonieuse dans un dictionnaire. Dans une première partie, nous donnons quelques éléments de comparaisons théoriques et pratiques sur les deux a priori, pour aider le lecteur à choisir l'un ou l'autre en fonction de son problème. Pour cette étude, nous utilisons les transformées communément utilisées telles que la variation totale, les ondelettes redondantes ou les curvelets. Dans une deuxième partie, nous proposons un état des lieux des algorithmes de premier ordre adaptés à la minimisation de ces critères. |

Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to provide a rigorous variational formulation for the detection of points in 2-d biological images. To this purpose we introduce a new functional whose minimizers give the points we want to detect. Then we define an approximating sequence of functionals for which we prove the Γ-convergence to the initial one. |

Abstract :
We propose an original hybrid modeling process of urban scenes that represents 3-D models as a combination of mesh-based surfaces and geometric 3-D-primitives. Meshes describe details such as ornaments and statues, whereas 3-D-primitives code for regular shapes such as walls and columns. Starting from an 3-D-surface obtained by multiview stereo techniques, these primitives are inserted into the surface after being detected. This strategy allows the introduction of semantic knowledge, the simplification of the modeling, and even correction of errors generated by the acquisition process. We design a hierarchical approach exploring different scales of an observed scene. Each level consists first in segmenting the surface using a multilabel energy model optimized by -expansion and then in fitting 3-D-primitives such as planes, cylinders or tori on the obtained partition where relevant. Experiments on real meshes, depth maps and synthetic surfaces show good potential for the proposed approach. |

Abstract :
This paper addresses the segmentation from an image of entities that have the form of a ‘network’, i.e. the region in the image corresponding to the entity is composed of branches joining together at junctions, e.g. road or vascular networks. We present new phase field higher-order active contour (HOAC) prior models for network regions, and apply them to the segmentation of road networks from very high resolution satellite images. This is a hard problem for two reasons. First, the images are complex, with much ‘noise’ in the road region due to cars, road markings, etc., while the background is very varied, containing many features that are locally similar to roads. Second, network regions are complex to model, because they may have arbitrary topology. In particular, we address a limitation of a previous model in which network branch width was constrained to be similar to maximum network branch radius of curvature, thereby providing a poor model of networks with straight narrow branches or highly curved, wide branches. We solve this problem by introducing first an additional nonlinear nonlocal HOAC term, and then an additional linear nonlocal HOAC term to improve the computational speed. Both terms allow separate control of branch width and branch curvature, and furnish better prolongation for the same width, but the linear term has several advantages: it is more efficient, and it is able to model multiple widths simultaneously. To cope with the difficulty of parameter selection for these models, we perform a stability analysis of a long bar with a given width, and hence show how to choose the parameters of the energy functions. After adding a likelihood energy, we use both models to extract the road network quasi-automatically from pieces of a QuickBird image, and compare the results to other models in the literature. The state-of-the-art results obtained demonstrate the superiority of our new models, the importance of strong prior knowledge in general, and of the new terms in particular. |

Abstract :
Marked point processes provide a rigorous framework to describe a scene by an unordered set of objects. The efficiency of this modeling has been shown on line network extraction with models manipulating interacting segments. In this paper, we extend this previous modeling to polylines composed of an unknown number of segments. Optimization is done via simulated annealing using a Reversible Jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo (RJMCMC) algorithm. We accelerate the convergence of the algorithm by using appropriate proposal kernels. Results on aerial and satellite images show that this new model outperforms the previous one. |

Abstract :
We present a new approach for building reconstruction from a single Digital Surface Model (DSM). It treats buildings as an assemblage of simple urban structures extracted from a library of 3D parametric blocks (like a LEGO set). First, the 2D-supports of the urban structures are extracted either interactively or automatically. Then, 3D-blocks are placed on the 2D-supports using a Gibbs model which controls both the block assemblage and the fitting to data. A Bayesian decision finds the optimal configuration of 3D--blocks using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampler associated with original proposition kernels. This method has been validated on multiple data set in a wide-resolution interval such as 0.7 m satellite and 0.1 m aerial DSMs, and provides 3D representations on complex buildings and dense urban areas with various levels of detail. |

Résumé :
Cette thèse décrit la construction d'un modèle de réseaux non-directionnels (e.g. réseaux routiers), fondé sur les contours actifs d'ordre supérieur (CAOSs) et les champs de phase développés récemment, et introduit une nouvelle famille des CAOSs des champs de phase pour des réseaux directionnels (e.g. réseaux hydrographiques en imagerie de télédétection, vaisseaux sanguins en imagerie médicale). Dans la première partie de cette thèse, nous nous intéressons à l'analyse de stabilité d'une énergie de type CAOSs aboutissant à un ‘diagramme de phase'. Les résultats, qui sont confirmés par des expériences numériques, permettent une bonne sélection des valeurs des paramètres pour la modélisation de réseaux non-directionnels.
Au contraire des réseaux routiers, les réseaux hydrographiques sont directionnels, i.e. ils contiennent un ‘flux' monodimensionnel circulant dans chaque branche. Cela implique des propriétés géométriques spécifiques des branches et particulièrement des jonctions, propriétés qu'il est utile de traduire dans un modèle, pour l'extraction de réseaux. Nous développons donc un modèle de champ de phase non-local de réseaux directionnels, qui, en plus du champ de phase scalaire décrivant une région par une fonction caractéristique lisse et qui interagit non-localement afin que des configurations de réseaux linéiques soient favorisées, introduit un champ vectoriel représentant le ‘flux' dans les branches du réseau. Ce champ vectoriel est contraint d'être nul à l'extérieur, et de magnitude égale à 1 à l'intérieur du réseau ; circulant dans le sens longitudinal des branches du réseau ; et de divergence très faible. Cela prolonge les branches du réseau ; contrôle la variation de largeur tout au long une branche ; et forme des jonctions non-symétriques telles que la somme des largeurs entrantes soit approximativement égale à celle des largeurs sortantes. En conjonction avec une nouvelle fonction d'interaction pour le champ de phase scalaire, le modèle assure aussi une vaste gamme de valeurs des largeurs stables des branches. Ce nouveau modèle a été appliqué au problème d'extraction de réseaux hydrographiques à partir d'images satellitaires très haute résolution. |
Abstract :
This thesis describes the construction of an undirected network (e.g. road network) model, based on the recently developed higher-order active contours (HOACs) and phase fields, and introduces a new family of phase field HOACs for directed networks (e.g. hydrographic networks in remote sensing imagery, vascular networks in medical imagery). In the first part of this thesis, we focus on the stability analysis of a HOAC energy leading to a ‘phase diagram'. The results, which are confirmed by numerical experiments, enable the selection of parameter values for the modelling of undirected networks.
Hydrographic networks, unlike road networks, are directed, i.e. they carry a unidirectional flow in each branch. This leads to specific geometric properties of the branches and particularly of the junctions, that it is useful to capture in a model, for network extraction purposes. We thus develop a nonlocal phase field model of directed networks, which, in addition to a scalar field representing a region by its smoothed characteristic function, and interacting nonlocally so as to favour network configurations, contains a vector field representing the ‘flow' through the network branches. The vector field is strongly encouraged to be zero outside, and of unit magnitude inside the network; and to have zero divergence. This prolongs network branches; controls width variation along a branch; and produces asymmetric junctions for which total incoming branch width approximately equals total outgoing branch width. In conjunction with a new interaction function for the scalar field, it also allows a broad range of stable branch widths. The new proposed model is applied to the problem of hydrographic network extraction from VHR satellite images, and it outperforms the undirected network model. |

Abstract :
In this paper, we describe a new optimization method which we call Multiple Birth and Cut (MBC). It combines the recently developed Multiple Birth and Death (MBD) algorithm and the Graph-Cut algorithm. MBD and MBC optimization methods are applied to the energy minimization of an object based model, the marked point process. We compare the MBC to the MBD showing the advantages and disadvantages, where the most important advantage is the reduction of the number of parameters. We validated our algorithm on the counting problem of flamingos in colony, where our algorithm outperforms the performance of the MBD algorithm. |

Abstract :
We address the problem of quasi-automatic extraction of directed networks, which have characteristic geometric features, from images. To include the necessary prior knowledge about these geometric features, we use a phase field higher-order active contour model of directed networks. The model has a large number of unphysical parameters (weights of energy terms), and can favour different geometric structures for different parameter values. To overcome this problem, we perform a stability analysis of a long, straight bar in order to find parameter ranges that favour networks. The resulting constraints necessary to produce
stable networks eliminate some parameters, replace others by physical parameters such as network branch width, and place lower and upper bounds on the values of the rest.We validate the theoretical analysis via numerical experiments, and then apply the model to the problem of hydrographic network extraction from multi-spectral VHR satellite images. |

Abstract :
In this paper, we model the point-spread function (PSF) of a fluorescence MACROscope with a field aberration. The MACROscope is an imaging arrangement that is designed to directly study small and large specimen preparations without physically sectioning them. However, due to the different optical components of the MACROscope, it cannot achieve the condition of lateral spatial invariance for all magnifications. For example, under low zoom settings, this field aberration becomes prominent, the PSF varies in the lateral field, and is proportional to the distance from the center of the field. On the other hand, for larger zooms, these aberrations become gradually absent. A computational approach to correct this aberration often relies on an accurate knowledge of the PSF. The PSF can be defined either theoretically using a scalar diffraction model or empirically by acquiring a three-dimensional image of a fluorescent bead that approximates a point source. The experimental PSF is difficult to obtain and can change with slight deviations from the physical conditions. In this paper, we model the PSF using the scalar diffraction approach, and the pupil function is modeled by chopping it. By comparing our modeled PSF with an experimentally obtained PSF, we validate our hypothesis that the spatial variance is caused by two limiting optical apertures brought together on different conjugate planes. |

Abstract :
In this paper, we compare two different approaches for semi-automatic detection of skin hyper-pigmentation on multi-spectral images. These two methods are support vector machine (SVM) and blind source separation. To apply SVM, a dimension reduction method adapted to data classification is proposed. It allows to improve the quality of SVM classification as well as to have reasonable computation time. For the blind source separation approach we show that, using independent component analysis, it is possible to extract a relevant cartography of skin pigmentation.

Abstract :
We propose a new algorithm for network segmentation from VHR remote sensing images. The algorithm performs this task quasi-automatically,
that is, with no human intervention except to fix some parameters. The task is made difficult by the amount of prior knowledge about network region geometry needed to perform the task, knowledge that is usually provided by a human being. To include such prior knowledge, we make use of methodological advances in region modelling: a phase field higher-order active contour of directed networks is used as the prior model for region geometry. By adjoining an approximately conserved flow to a phase field model encouraging network shapes (i.e. regions composed of branches meeting at junctions), the model favours network regions in which different branches may have very different widths, but in which width change along a branch is slow; in which branches do not
come to an end, hence tending to close gaps in the network; and in which junctions show approximate ‘conservation of width’. We also introduce image models for network and background, which are validated using maximum likelihood segmentation against other possibilities. We then test the full model on VHR optical and multispectral satellite images. |

Abstract :
This paper addresses the problem of the classification of very high resolution SAR amplitude images of urban areas. The proposed supervised method combines a finite mixture technique to estimate class-conditional probability density functions, Bayesian classification, and Markov random fields (MRFs). Textural features, such as those extracted by the grey-level co-occurrency method, are also integrated in the technique, as they allow improving the discrimination of urban areas. Copula theory is applied to estimate bivariate joint class-conditional statistics, merging the marginal distributions of both textural and SAR amplitude features. The resulting joint distribution estimates are plugged into a hidden MRF model, endowed with a modified Metropolis dynamics scheme for energy minimization. Experimental results with COSMO-SkyMed images point out the accuracy of the proposed method, also as compared with previous contextual classifiers. |

Abstract :
In this paper we introduce a probabilistic approach of building extraction in remotely sensed images. To cope with data heterogeneity we construct a flexible hierarchical framework which can create various building appearance models from different elementary feature based modules. A global optimization process attempts to find the optimal configuration of buildings, considering simultaneously the observed data, prior knowledge, and interactions between the neighboring building parts. The proposed method is evaluated on various aerial image sets containing more than 500 buildings, and the results are matched against two state-of-the-art techniques. |

Abstract :
The Texture Fragmentation and Reconstruction (TFR) algorithm has beenrecently introduced to address the problem of image segmentationby textural properties, based on a suitable image description toolknown as the Hierarchical Multiple Markov Chain (H-MMC) model. TFRprovides a hierarchical set of nested segmentation maps by firstidentifying the elementary image patterns, and then merging themsequentially to identify complete textures at different scales ofobservation.In this work, we propose a major modification to the TFR by resortingto a graph based description of the image content and a graph clusteringtechnique for the enhancement and extraction of image patterns. Aprocedure based on mathematical morphology will be introduced thatallows for the construction of a color-wise image representationby means of multiple graph structures, along with a simple clusteringtechnique aimed at cutting the graphs and correspondingly segmentgroups of connected components with a similar spatial context.The performance assessment, realized both on synthetic compositionsof real-world textures and images from the remote sensing domain,confirm the effectiveness and potential of the proposed method. |

Abstract :
The last decades have witnessed an intensive development and a significant increase of interest to remote sensing, and, in particular, to synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery. In this paper we develop a supervised classification approach for medium and high resolution multichannel SAR amplitude images. The proposed technique combines finite mixture modeling for probability density function estimation, copulas for multivariate distribution modeling and the Markov random field approach to Bayesian image classification. The finite mixture modeling is done via a recently proposed SAR-specific dictionary-based stochastic expectation maximization approach to class-conditional amplitude probability density function estimation, which is applied separately to all the SAR channels. For modeling the class-conditional joint distributions of multichannel data the statistical concept of copulas is employed, and a dictionary-based copula selection method is proposed. Finally, the Markov random field approach enables to take into account the contextual information and to gain robustness against the inherent noise-like phenomenon of SAR known as speckle. The designed method is an extension and a generalization to multichannel SAR of a recently developed single-channel and Dual-pol SAR image classification technique. The accuracy of the developed multichannel SAR classification approach is validated on several multichannel Quad-pol RADARSAT-2 images and compared to benchmark classification techniques. |

Abstract :
Data reduction procedures and classification via support vector machines (SVMs) are often associated with multi or hyperspectral image analysis. In this paper, we propose an automatic method with these two schemes in order to perform a classification of skin hyper-pigmentation on multi-spectral images. We propose a spectral analysis method to partition the spectrum as a tool for data reduction, implemented by projection pursuit. Once the data is reduced, an SVM is used to differentiate the pathological from the healthy areas. As SVM is a supervised classification method, we propose a spatial criterion for spectral analysis in order to perform automatic learning. |

Abstract :
This paper deals with a new unsupervised fuzzy Bayesian segmentation method based on the hidden Markov chain model, in order to separate continuous from discrete components in the hidden data. We present a new F-HMC (fuzzy hidden Markov chain) related to three hard classes, based on a general extension of the previously algorithms proposed. For a given observation, the hidden variable owns a density according to a measure containing Dirac and Lebesgue components. We have performed our approach in the multispectral context. The hyper-parameters are estimated using a Stochastic Expectation Maximization (SEM) algorithm. We present synthetic simulations and also segmentation results related to real multi-band data. |

Abstract :
We extend the marked point process models that have been used for object extraction from images to arbitrarily shaped objects, without greatly increasing the computational complexity of sampling and estimation. From an alternative point of view, the approach can be viewed as an extension of the active contour methodology to an a priori unknown number of
objects. Sampling and estimation are based on a stochastic birth-and-death process defined on the configuration space of an arbitrary number of objects, where the objects are defined by the image data and prior information. The performance of the approach is demonstrated via experimental results on synthetic and real data. |

Abstract :
In this paper we develop a novel classification approach for high and very high resolution polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) amplitude images. This approach combines the Markov random field model to Bayesian image classification and a finite mixture technique for probability density function estimation. The finite mixture modeling is done via a recently proposed dictionary-based stochastic expectation maximization approach for SAR amplitude probability density function estimation. For modeling the joint distribution from marginals corresponding to single polarimetric channels we employ copulas. The accuracy of the developed semiautomatic supervised algorithm is validated in the application of wet soil classification on several high resolution SAR images acquired by TerraSAR-X and COSMO-SkyMed. |

Abstract :
Confocal microscopy is an increasingly popular technique for 3D
imaging of biological specimens which gives images with a very good resolution
(several tenths of micrometers), even though degraded by both blur and Poisson
noise. Deconvolution methods have been proposed to reduce these degradations,
some of them being regularized on a Total Variation prior, which gives
good results in image restoration but does not allow to retrieve the thin details
(including the textures) of the specimens. We rst propose here to use instead
a wavelet prior based on the Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet transform to retrieve
the thin details of the object. As the regularizing prior e ciency also depends
on the choice of its regularizing parameter, we secondly propose a method to
select the regularizing parameter following a discrepancy principle for Poisson
noise. Finally, in order to implement the proposed deconvolution method, we
introduce an algorithm based on the Alternating Direction technique which allows
to avoid inherent stability problems of the Richardson-Lucy multiplicative
algorithm which is widely used in 3D image restoration. We show some results
on real and synthetic data, and compare these results to the ones obtained with
the Total Variation and the Curvelets priors. We also give preliminary results
on a modi cation of the wavelet transform allowing to deal with the anisotropic
sampling of 3D confocal images. |
