Image Processing, 8(7): pages 954-963, juillet 1999. Mots-clés : Markov processes, Monte Carlo methods, Potts model, Image segmentation, Maximum likelihood estimation . @ARTICLE{xd99c, author = {Descombes, X. and Morris, R. and Zerubia, J. and Berthod, M.}, title = {Estimation of Markov Random Field prior parameters using Markov chain Monte Carlo Maximum Likelihood}, year = {1999}, month = {juillet}, journal = {IEEE Trans.

We detail the theory required, and present an algorithm that is easily implemented and practical in terms of computation time. We demonstrate this algorithm on three MRF models-the standard Potts model, an inhomogeneous variation of the Potts model, and a long-range interaction model, better adapted to modeling real-world images. We estimate the parameters from a synthetic and a real image, and then resynthesize the models to demonstrate which features of the image have been captured by the model. Segmentations are computed based on the estimated parameters and conclusions drawn.

56 - Unsupervised parallel image classification using Markovian models. Z. Kato et J. Zerubia et M. Berthod. Pattern Recognition, 32(4): pages 591-604, 1999.

If the model parameters are known then we have various methods to solve the segmentation problem (simulated annealing (SA), iterated conditional modes (ICM), etc). However, when the parameters are unknown, the problem becomes more difficult. One has to estimate the hidden label field parameters only from the observed image. Herein, we are interested in parameter estimation methods related to monogrid and hierarchical MRF models. The basic idea is similar to the expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm: we recursively look at the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate of the label field given the estimated parameters, then we look at the maximum likelihood (ML) estimate of the parameters given a tentative labeling obtained at the previous step. The only parameter supposed to be known is the number of classes, all the other parameters are estimated. The proposed algorithms have been implemented on a Connection Machine CM200. Comparative experiments have been performed on both noisy synthetic data and real images.

59 - New Prospects in Line Detection by Dynamic Programming. N. Merlet et J. Zerubia. IEEE Trans. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 18(4): pages 426-431, avril 1996. Mots-clés : Line detection, dynamic programming, energy minimization, curvature, satellite images. @ARTICLE{MerletPAMI96, author = {Merlet, N. and Zerubia, J.}, title = {New Prospects in Line Detection by Dynamic Programming}, year = {1996}, month = {avril}, journal = {IEEE Trans. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence}, volume = {18}, number = {4}, pages = {426-431}, url = {http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?isnumber=10562&arnumber=491623&count=15&index=6}, keyword = {Line detection, dynamic programming, energy minimization, curvature, satellite images} } Abstract : The detection of lines in satellite images has drawn a lot of attention within the last 15 years. Problems of resolution, noise, and image understanding are involved, and one of the best methods developed so far is the F* algorithm of Fischler, which achieves robustness, rightness, and rapidity. Like other methods of dynamic programming, it consists of defining a cost which depends on local information; then a summation-minimization process in the image is performed. We present herein a mathematical formalization of the F* algorithm, which allows us to extend the cost both to cliques of more than two points (to deal with the contrast), and to neighborhoods of size larger than one (to take into account the curvature). Thus, all the needed information (contrast, grey-level, curvature) is synthesized in a unique cost function defined on the digital original image. This cost is used to detect roads and valleys in satellite images (SPOT).

To address it we consider a statistical finite mixture approach to probability density function estimation. We develop a generalized approach to address the problem of mixture estimation and consider the use of several different classes of distributions as the base for mixture approaches. This allows performing the maximum likelihood classification which is then refined by Markov random field approach, and optimized by graph cuts. The developed method is experimentally validated on high resolution SAR imagery acquired by Cosmo-SkyMed and TerraSAR-X satellite sensors.

Mots-clés : tree detection, Eucalyptus plantation, Marked point process, multi-date detection. @INPROCEEDINGS{Zhou11, author = {Zhou, J. and Proisy, C. and Descombes, X. and Zerubia, J. and Le Maire, G. and Nouvellon, Y. and Couteron, P.}, title = {Tree crown detection in high resolution optical images during the early growth stages of eucalyptus plantations in Brazil}, year = {2011}, month = {novembre}, booktitle = {Asian Conference on Pattern Recognition (ACPR)}, address = {Beijing, China}, url = {http://hal.inria.fr/hal-00740973}, keyword = {tree detection, Eucalyptus plantation, Marked point process, multi-date detection} } Abstract : Individual tree detection methods are more and more present, and improve, in forestry and silviculture domains with the increasing availability of satellite metric imagery. Automatic detection on these very high spatial resolution images aims to determine the tree positions and crown sizes. In this paper, we used a mathematical model based on marked point processes, which showed advantages w.r.t. several individual tree detection algorithms for plantations, to analyze the eucalyptus plantations in Brazil, with 2 optical images acquired by the WorldView-2 satellite. A tentative detection simultaneously with 2 images of different dates (multi-date) was tested for the first time, which estimates individual tree crown variation during these dates. The relevance of detection was discussed considering the detection performance in tree localizations and crown sizes. Then, tree crown growth was deduced from detection results and compared with the expected dynamics of corresponding populations.

First, the degree of the disease is measured clinically on a group of patients by dermatologists. Then, a statistical test is used on obtained set of measures to determine the treatment efficacy. In this paper, a method is proposed to automatically measure the severity of skin hyperpigmentation. After a classification step, an objective function is designed in order to obtain an optimal linear combination of bands defining the severity criterion. Then a hypothesis test is deployed on this combination to quantify treatment efficacy.

MBC is an optimization method applied to the energy minimization of an object based model, defined by a marked point process. We show that, by proposing good candidates in the birth step of this algorithm, the speed of convergence is increased. The algorithm starts by generating a dense configuration in a special organization, the best candidates are selected using the belief propagation algorithm. Next, this candidate configuration is combined with the current configuration using binary graph cuts as presented in the original version of the MBC algorithm. We tested the performance of our algorithm on the particular problem of counting flamingos in a colony, and show that it is much faster with the modified birth step.

We use Nakagami density to model the class amplitudes. To model the textures of the classes, we exploit a non-Gaussian Markov Random Field (MRF) texture model with t-distributed regression error. Non-stationary Multinomial Logistic (MnL) latent class label model is used as a mixture density to obtain spatially smooth class segments. We perform the classification Expectation-Maximization (CEM) algorithm to estimate the class parameters and classify the pixels. We obtained some classification results of water, land and urban areas in both supervised and semi-supervised cases on TerraSAR-X data.

Ce modèle prend en compte à la fois une représentation statistique des images RSO par modèle de mélanges finis et de copules, et une modélisation contextuelle à partir de champs de Markov hiérarchiques. Abstract : This paper deals with the Bayesian classification of single-polarized very high resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images that depict urban areas. The difficulty of such a classification relies in the significant effects of speckle noise. The model considered here takes into account both statistical modeling of images via finite mixture models and copulas, and contextual modeling thanks to hierarchical Markov random fields

The method produces accurate, watertight and compact meshes under planar constraints which are especially designed for urban scenes. The LiDAR point cloud is classified through a non-convex energy minimization problem in order to separate the points labeled as building. Roof structures are then extracted from this point subset, and used to control the meshing procedure. Experiments highlight the potential of our method in term of minimal rendering, accuracy and compactness

13 - Morphological road segmentation in urban areas from high resolution satellite images. R. Gaetano et J. Zerubia et G. Scarpa et G. Poggi. Dans International Conference on Digital Signal Processing, Corfu, Greece, juillet 2011. Mots-clés : Segmentation, Classification, skeletonization , pattern recognition, shape analysis. @INPROCEEDINGS{GaetanoDSP, author = {Gaetano, R. and Zerubia, J. and Scarpa, G. and Poggi, G.}, title = {Morphological road segmentation in urban areas from high resolution satellite images}, year = {2011}, month = {juillet}, booktitle = {International Conference on Digital Signal Processing}, address = {Corfu, Greece}, url = {http://hal.inria.fr/inria-00618222/fr/}, keyword = {Segmentation, Classification, skeletonization , pattern recognition, shape analysis} } Abstract : High resolution satellite images provided by the last generation sensors significantly increased the potential of almost all the image information mining (IIM) applications related to earth observation. This is especially true for the extraction of road information, task of primary interest for many remote sensing applications, which scope is more and more extended to complex urban scenarios thanks to the availability of highly detailed images. This context is particularly challenging due to such factors as the variability of road visual appearence and the occlusions from entities like trees, cars and shadows. On the other hand, the peculiar geometry and morphology of man-made structures, particularly relevant in urban areas, is enhanced in high resolution images, making this kind of information especially useful for road detection. In this work, we provide a new insight on the use of morphological image analysis for road extraction in complex urban scenarios, and propose a technique for road segmentation that only relies on this domain. The keypoint of the technique is the use of skeletons as powerful descriptors for road objects: the proposed method is based on an ad-hoc skeletonization procedure that enhances the linear structure of road segments, and extracts road objects by first detecting their skeletons and then associating each of them with a region of the image. Experimental results are presented on two different high resolution satellite images of urban areas.

14 - A novel algorithm for occlusions and perspective effects using a 3d object process. A. Gamal Eldin et X. Descombes et J. Zerubia.

The proposed method is an object based method embedded in a marked point process framework. We apply it for the size estimation of a penguin colony, where we model a penguin colony as an unknown number of 3D objects. The main idea of the proposed approach is to sample some candidate configurations consisting of 3D objects lying in the real plane. A Gibbs energy is define on the configuration space, which takes into account both prior and data information. These configurations are projected onto the image plane. The configurations are modified until convergence using the multiple birth and death optimization algorithm and by measuring the similarity between the projected image of the configuration and the real image. During optimization, the proposed configuration is modeled by a mixed graph which represents all dependencies between the objects, including interaction between neighbor objects and parent-child dependency for occluded objects. We tested our model on synthetic image, and real images.

Mots-clés : fluorescence MACROscopy , phase retrieval, field aberration. @INPROCEEDINGS{PanjakshanISBI2011, author = {Pankajakshan, P. and Dieterlen, A. and Engler, G. and Kam, Z. and Blanc-Féraud, L. and Zerubia, J. and Olivo-Marin, J.C.}, title = {Wavefront sensing for aberration modeling in fluorescence MACROscopy}, year = {2011}, month = {avril}, booktitle = {Proc. IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI)}, address = {Chicago, USA}, url = {http://hal.inria.fr/inria-00563988/en/}, keyword = {fluorescence MACROscopy , phase retrieval, field aberration} } Abstract : In this paper, we present an approach to calculate the wavefront in the back pupil plane of an objective in a fluorescent MACROscope. We use the three-dimensional image of a fluorescent bead because it contains potential pupil information in the ‘far’ out-of-focus planes for sensing the wavefront at the back focal plane of the objective. Wavefront sensing by phase retrieval technique is needed for several reasons. Firstly, the point-spread function of the imaging system can be calculated from the estimated pupil phase and used for image restoration. Secondly, the aberrations in the optics of the objective can be determined by studying this phase. Finally, the estimated wavefront can be used to correct the aberrated optical path with- out a wavefront sensor. In this paper, we estimate the wavefront of a MACROscope optical system by using Bayesian inferencing and derive the Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm as a special case.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The single objects considered are defined by both the image data and the prior information in a way that controls the computational complexity of the estimation problem. The method is tested via experiments on a very high resolution aerial image of a scene composed of tree crowns.

The accuracy is ensured by a Bayesian object model verification, meanwhile the computational cost is significantly decreased by a non-uniform stochastic object birth process, which proposes relevant objects with higher probability based on low-level image features.

We consider a stochastic approach based on an object process also called marked point process. The objects represent trees or oil tanks which are modeled by disks in the image. We first define a Gibbs density that takes into account both prior information and the data. The energy we define is composed of two terms, one is a prior, penalizing overlaps between objects, and the other is a data term, which measures the suitability of an object in the SAR image. The problem is then reduced to an energy minimization problem. We sample the process to extract the configuration of objects minimizing the energy by a fast birth-and-death dynamics, leading to the total number of objects (trees or oil tanks in our case). This approach is much faster than manual counts and does not need any preprocessing or supervision of a user.

Different vegetation types do not only differ in color, but also in texture. We study the use of four Haralick features (energy, contrast, entropy, homogeneity) for texture analysis, and then perform the classification using the one-against-all (OAA) multi-class support vector machine (SVM), which is a popular supervised learning technique for classification. The choice of features (along with their corresponding parameters), the choice of the training set, and the choice of the SVM kernel highly affect the performance of the classification. The study was done on several CIR aerial images provided by the French National Forest Inventory (IFN). In this paper, we will show one example on a national forest near Sedan (in France), and compare our result with the IFN map.

Directed networks carry a unidirectional flow in each branch, which leads to characteristic geometric properties. In this paper, we present a nonlocal phase field model of directed networks. In addition to a scalar field representing a region by its smoothed characteristic function and interacting nonlocally so as to favour network configurations, the model 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 region; 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, it also allows a broad range of stable branch widths. We analyse the energy to constrain the parameters, and show geometric experiments confirming the above behaviour. We also show a segmentation result on a synthetic river image.

Nous proposons un algorithme rapide et des résultats de déconvolution par minimisation d'un critère dans le domaine image, avec un a priori de régularité exprimé dans le domaine image utilisant une décomposition redondante sur une trame. L'algorithme et le modèle proposés semblent originaux pour ce problème en traitement d'images et sont performants en terme de temps de calculs et de qualité de restauration. Nous montrons des comparaisons entre les deux types d' a priori. Abstract : Many image restoration techniques are based on convex energy minimization. We focus on the use of these techniques and consider the minimization of two criteria holding a l1-norm of wavelet coefficients. Most of the recent research works are based on the minimization of a criterion in the wavelet coefficients domain, namely as a sparse prior. We propose a fast algorithm and deconvolution results obtained by minimizing a criterion in the image domain using a redundant decomposition on a frame. The algorithm and model proposed are unusual for this problem and very efficient in term of computing time and quality of restoration results. We show comparisons between the two different priors.

We incorporate such knowledge via phase fields and higher-order active contours (HOACs). In this paper: we introduce an improved prior model, the phase field HOAC ‘inflection point’ model of a network; we present an improved data term for the segmentation of road networks; we confirm the robustness of the resulting model to choice of gradient descent initialization; and we illustrate these points via road network extraction results on VHR satellite images.

We propose to use a new complex wavelet based prior and an efficient scheme to solve these problems. We show some results on a problem of image reconstruction with noise, irregular sampling and blur. We also show a comparison between two widely used priors in image processing: sparsity and regularity priors.

Theoretically calculated PSFs often lack the experimental or microscope specific signatures while empirically obtained data are either over sized or (and) too noisy. The effect of noise and the influence of the microsphere size can be mitigated from the experimental data by using a Maximum Likelihood Expectation Maximization (MLEM) algorithm. The true experimental parameters can then be estimated by fitting the result to a model based on the scalar diffraction theory. The algorithm was tested on some simulated data and the results obtained validate the usefulness of the approach for retrieving the PSF from measured data.

The problems we study are convex and can be expressed simply as sums of lp-norms of affine transforms of the image. We propose 2 different techniques. They are - to the best of our knowledge - new in the domain of image processing and one of them is new in the domain of mathematical programming. Both methods converge to the set of minimizers. Additionally, we show that they converge at least as O(1/N) (where N is the iteration counter) which is in some sense an ``optimal'' rate of convergence. Finally, we compare these approaches to some others on a toy problem of image super-resolution with impulse noise.

In this work, we develop a parametric finite mixture model for the statistics of pixel intensities in high resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. This method is an extension of previously existing method for lower resolution images. The method integrates the stochastic expectation maximization (SEM) scheme and the method of log-cumulants (MoLC) with an automatic technique to select, for each mixture component, an optimal parametric model taken from a predefined dictionary of parametric probability density functions (pdf). The proposed dictionary consists of eight state-of-the-art SAR- specific pdfs: Nakagami, log-normal, generalized Gaussian Rayleigh, Heavy-tailed Rayleigh, Weibull, K-root, Fisher and generalized Gamma. The designed scheme is endowed with the novel initialization procedure and the algorithm to automatically estimate the optimal number of mixture components. The experimental results with a set of several high resolution COSMO-SkyMed images demonstrate the high accuracy of the designed algorithm, both from the viewpoint of a visual comparison of the histograms, and from the viewpoint of quantitive accuracy measures such as correlation coefficient (above 99,5%). The method proves to be effective on all the considered images, remaining accurate for multimodal and highly heterogeneous scenes.
