Abstract :
Object extraction from images is one of the most important tasks in remote sensing image analysis. For accurate extraction from very high resolution (VHR) images, object geometry needs to be taken into account. A method for incorporating strong yet flexible prior shape information into a marked point process model for the extraction of multiple objects of complex shape is presented. To control the computational complexity, the objects considered are defined using the image data and the prior shape information. To estimate the optimal configuration of objects, the process is sampled using a Markov chain based on a stochastic birth-and-death process on the space of multiple objects. The authors present several experimental results on the extraction of tree crowns from VHR aerial images. |

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 :
We study the problem of identifying shape classes in point clouds. These clouds contain sampled contours and are
corrupted by clutter and observation noise. Taking an analysis-by-synthesis approach, we simulate high-probability configurations of
sampled contours using models learnt from training data to evaluate the given test data. To facilitate simulations, we develop statistical
models for sources of (nuisance) variability: (i) shape variations within classes, (ii) variability in sampling continuous curves, (iii) pose
and scale variability, (iv) observation noise, and (v) points introduced by clutter. The variability in sampling closed curves into finite
points is represented by positive diffeomorphisms of a unit circle. We derive probability models on these functions using their squareroot
forms and the Fisher-Rao metric. Using a Monte Carlo approach, we simulate configurations from a joint prior on the shape-sample
space and compare them to the data using a likelihood function. Average likelihoods of simulated configurations lead to estimates of
posterior probabilities of different classes and, hence, Bayesian classification. |

Abstract :
We present a model of a ‘gas of circles’: regions in the image domain composed of a unknown
number of circles of approximately the same radius. The model has applications
to medical, biological, nanotechnological, and remote sensing imaging. The model is constructed
using higher-order active contours (HOACs) in order to include non-trivial prior
knowledge about region shape without constraining topology. The main theoretical contribution
is an analysis of the local minima of the HOAC energy that allows us to guarantee
stable circles, fix one of the model parameters, and constrain the rest. We apply the model
to tree crown extraction from aerial images of plantations. Numerical experiments both
confirm the theoretical analysis and show the empirical importance of the prior shape information. |

Abstract :
This paper addresses the problem of updating digital road maps in dense urban areas by extracting the main road network from very high resolution (VHR) satellite images. Building on the work of Rochery et al. (2005), we represent the road region as a 'phase field'. In order to overcome the difficulties due to the complexity of the information contained in VHR images, we propose a multi-scale statistical data model. It enables the integration of segmentation results from coarse resolution, which furnishes a simplified representation of the data, and fine resolution, which provides accurate details. Moreover, an outdated GIS digital map is introduced into the model, providing specific prior knowledge of the road network. This new term balances the effect of the generic prior knowledge describing the geometric shape of road networks (i.e. elongated and of low-curvature) carried by a 'phase field higher-order active contour' term. Promising results on QuickBird panchromatic images and comparisons with several other methods demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. |

Abstract :
One of the main difficulties in extracting line networks from images, and in particular road networks from remote sensing images, is the existence of interruptions in the data caused, for example, by occlusions. These can lead to gaps in the extracted network that do not correspond to gaps in the real network. In this paper, we describe a higher-order active contour energy that in addition to favouring network-like regions, includes a prior term penalizing networks containing ‘nearby opposing extremities’, thereby making gaps in the extracted network less likely. The new energy term causes such extremities to attract one another during gradient descent. They thus move towards one another and join, closing the gap. To minimize the energy, we develop specific techniques to handle the high-order derivatives that appear in the gradient descent equation. We present the results of automatic extraction of networks from real remote-sensing images, showing the ability of the model to overcome interruptions. |

Abstract :
Indexing and retrieval from remote sensing image databases relies on the extraction of appropriate information from the data about the entity of interest (e.g. land cover type) and on the robustness of this extraction to nuisance variables. Other entities in an image may be strongly correlated with the entity of interest and their properties can therefore be used to characterize this entity. The road network contained in an image is one example. The properties of road networks vary considerably from one geographical environment to another, and they can therefore be used to classify and retrieve such environments. In this paper, we define several such environments, and classify them with the aid of geometrical and topological features computed from the road networks occurring in them. The relative failure of network extraction methods in certain types of urban area obliges us to segment such areas and to add a second set of geometrical and topological features computed from the segmentations. To validate the approach, feature selection and SVM linear kernel classification are performed on the feature set arising from a diverse image database. |

Abstract :
We introduce a new class of active contour models that
hold great promise for region and shape modelling, and
we apply a special case of these models to the
extraction of road networks from satellite and aerial
imagery. The new models are arbitrary polynomial
functionals on the space of boundaries, and thus
greatly generalize the linear functionals used in
classical contour energies. While classical energies
are expressed as single integrals over the contour,
the new energies incorporate multiple integrals, and
thus describe long-range interactions between
different sets of contour points. As prior terms, they
describe families of contours that share complex
geometric properties, without making reference to any
particular shape, and they require no pose estimation.
As likelihood terms, they can describe multi-point
interactions between the contour and the data. To
optimize the energies, we use a level set approach.
The forces derived from the new energies are non-local
however, thus necessitating an extension of standard
level set methods. Networks are a shape family of
great importance in a number of applications,
including remote sensing imagery. To model them, we
make a particular choice of prior quadratic energy
that describes reticulated structures, and augment it
with a likelihood term that couples the data at pairs
of contour points to their joint geometry. Promising
experimental results are shown on real images. |

Abstract :
The aims of this paper are two-fold: to define Gaussian mixture models of coloured texture on several feature paces and to compare the performance of these models
in various classification tasks, both with each other and with other models popular in the literature. We construct Gaussian mixtures models over a variety of different colour and texture feature spaces, with a view to the retrieval of textured colour images from databases. We compare supervised classification results for different choices of colour and texture features using the Vistex database, and explore the best set of features and the best GMM configuration for this task. In addition we introduce several methods for combining the 'colour' and 'structure' information in order to improve the classification performance. We then apply the resulting models to the classification of texture databases and to the classification of man-made and natural areas in aerial images. We compare the GMM model with other models in the literature, and show an overall improvement in performance. |
