2 - Building Development Monitoring in Multitemporal Remotely Sensed Image Pairs with Stochastic Birth-Death Dynamics. C. Benedek et X. Descombes et J. Zerubia. IEEE Trans.

A global optimization process attempts to find the optimal configuration of buildings, considering the observed data, prior knowledge, and interactions between the neighboring building parts. We present methodological contributions in three key issues: (1) We implement a novel object-change modeling approach based on Multitemporal Marked Point Processes, which simultaneously exploits low level change information between the time layers and object level building description to recognize and separate changed and unaltered buildings. (2) To answering the challenges of data heterogeneity in aerial and satellite image repositories, we construct a flexible hierarchical framework which can create various building appearance models from different elementary feature based modules. (3) To simultaneously ensure the convergence, optimality and computation complexity constraints raised by the increased data quantity, we adopt the quick Multiple Birth and Death optimization technique for change detection purposes, and propose a novel non-uniform stochastic object birth process, which generates relevant objects with higher probability based on low-level image features.

4 - Supervised High Resolution Dual Polarization SAR Image Classification by Finite Mixtures and Copulas. V. Krylov et G. Moser et S.B. Serpico et J. Zerubia.

Copyright : IEEE @ARTICLE{krylovJSTSP2011, author = {Krylov, V. and Moser, G. and Serpico, S.B. and Zerubia, J.}, title = {Supervised High Resolution Dual Polarization SAR Image Classification by Finite Mixtures and Copulas}, year = {2011}, month = {juin}, journal = { IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Signal Processing}, volume = {5}, number = {3}, pages = {554-566}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/JSTSP.2010.2103925}, pdf = {http://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/inria-00562326/en/}, keyword = {Polarimetric synthetic aperture radar, Supervised classification, probability density function (pdf), dictionary-based pdf estimation, Markov random field, copula} } Abstract : In this paper a novel supervised classification approach is proposed for high resolution dual polarization (dualpol) amplitude satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. A novel probability density function (pdf) model of the dual-pol SAR data is developed that combines finite mixture modeling for marginal probability density functions estimation and copulas for multivariate distribution modeling. The finite mixture modeling is performed via a recently proposed SAR-specific dictionarybased stochastic expectation maximization approach to SAR amplitude pdf estimation. For modeling the joint distribution of dual-pol data the statistical concept of copulas is employed, and a novel copula-selection dictionary-based method is proposed. In order to take into account the contextual information, the developed joint pdf model is combined with a Markov random field approach for Bayesian image classification. The accuracy of the developed dual-pol supervised classification approach is validated and compared with benchmark approaches on two high resolution dual-pol TerraSAR-X scenes, acquired during an epidemiological study. A corresponding single-channel version of the classification algorithm is also developed and validated on a single polarization COSMO-SkyMed scene.

6 - On the Illumination Invariance of the Level Lines under Directed Light: Application to Change Detection. P. Weiss et A. Fournier et L. Blanc-Féraud et G. Aubert. SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences, 4(1): pages 448-471, mars 2011. Mots-clés : Level Lines, topographic map, illumination invariance, Change detection, contrast equalization, remote sensing. @ARTICLE{SIIMS_2011, author = {Weiss, P. and Fournier, A. and Blanc-Féraud, L. and Aubert, G.}, title = {On the Illumination Invariance of the Level Lines under Directed Light: Application to Change Detection}, year = {2011}, month = {mars}, journal = {SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences}, volume = {4}, number = {1}, pages = {448-471}, url = {http://www.math.univ-toulouse.fr/~weiss/Publis/SIIMS_2011_Weiss.pdf}, pdf = {http://www.math.univ-toulouse.fr/~weiss/Publis/SIIMS_2011_Weiss.pdf}, keyword = {Level Lines, topographic map, illumination invariance, Change detection, contrast equalization, remote sensing} } Abstract : We analyze the illumination invariance of the level lines of an image. We show that if the scene surface has Lambertian reflectance and the light is directed, then a necessary and sufficient condition for the level lines to be illumination invariant is that the three-dimensional scene be developable and that its albedo satisfy some geometrical constraints. We then show that the level lines are “almost” invariant for piecewise developable surfaces. Such surfaces fit most of the urban structures. This allows us to devise a fast and simple algorithm that detects changes between pairs of remotely sensed images of urban areas, independently of the lighting conditions. We show the effectiveness of the algorithm both on synthetic OpenGL scenes and real QuickBird images. The synthetic results illustrate the theory developed in this paper. The two real QuickBird images show that the proposed change detection algorithm is discriminant. For easy scenes it achieves a rate of 85% detected changes for 10% false positives, while it reaches a rate of 75% detected changes for 25% false positives on demanding scenes.

7 - Enhanced Dictionary-Based SAR Amplitude Distribution Estimation and Its Validation With Very High-Resolution Data. V. Krylov et G. Moser et S.B. Serpico et J. Zerubia.

Mots-clés : finite mixture models, parametric estimation, probability-density-function estimation, EM Stochastique (SEM), synthetic aperture radar. Copyright : IEEE @ARTICLE{krylovGRSL2011, author = {Krylov, V. and Moser, G. and Serpico, S.B. and Zerubia, J.}, title = {Enhanced Dictionary-Based SAR Amplitude Distribution Estimation and Its Validation With Very High-Resolution Data}, year = {2011}, month = {janvier}, journal = {IEEE-Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters}, volume = {8}, number = {1}, pages = {148-152}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/LGRS.2010.2053517}, pdf = {http://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/inria-00503893/en/}, keyword = {finite mixture models, parametric estimation, probability-density-function estimation, EM Stochastique (SEM), synthetic aperture radar} } Abstract : In this letter, we address the problem of estimating the amplitude probability density function (pdf) of single-channel synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. A novel flexible method is developed to solve this problem, extending the recently proposed dictionary-based stochastic expectation maximization approach (developed for a medium-resolution SAR) to very high resolution (VHR) satellite imagery, and enhanced by introduction of a novel procedure for estimating the number of mixture components, that permits to reduce appreciably its computational complexity. The specific interest is the estimation of heterogeneous statistics, and the developed method is validated in the case of the VHR SAR imagery, acquired by the last-generation satellite SAR systems, TerraSAR-X and COSMO-SkyMed. This VHR imagery allows the appreciation of various ground materials resulting in highly mixed distributions, thus posing a difficult estimation problem that has not been addressed so far. We also conduct an experimental study of the extended dictionary of state-of-the-art SAR-specific pdf models and consider the dictionary refinements.

8 - Multiple Birth and Cut Algorithm for Multiple Object Detection. A. Gamal Eldin et X. Descombes et Charpiat G. et J. Zerubia. Journal of Multimedia Processing and Technologies, 2011. Mots-clés : Markov point process, Multiple Birth and Cut, Graph Cut, Belief Propagation, flamingo counting. @ARTICLE{MBC_BP10, author = {Gamal Eldin, A. and Descombes, X. and G., Charpiat and Zerubia, J.}, title = {Multiple Birth and Cut Algorithm for Multiple Object Detection}, year = {2011}, journal = {Journal of Multimedia Processing and Technologies}, url = {http://hal.inria.fr/hal-00616371}, keyword = {Markov point process, Multiple Birth and Cut, Graph Cut, Belief Propagation, flamingo counting} } 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 energy minimization of an object based model, the marked point process. We compare the MBC to the MBD showing their respective advantages and drawbacks, where the most important advantage of the MBC is the reduction of number of parameters. We demonstrate that by proposing good candidates throughout the selection phase in the birth step, the speed of convergence is increased. In this selection phase, the best candidates are chosen from object sets by a belief propagation algorithm. We validate our algorithm on the flamingo counting problem in a colony and demonstrate that our algorithm outperforms the MBD algorithm.

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.

Mots-clés : Clustering algorithms, Image color analysis, Image edge detection, Image segmentation, Monte Carlo Sampling, Object-based stochastic model. @ARTICLE{mallet_tip2010, author = {Mallet, C. and Lafarge, F. and Roux, M. and Soergel, U. and Bretar, F. and Heipke, C.}, title = {A Marked Point Process for Modeling Lidar Waveforms}, year = {2010}, month = {décembre}, journal = {IEEE Trans. Image Processing}, volume = {19}, number = {12}, pages = {3204-3221}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TIP.2010.2052825}, keyword = {Clustering algorithms, Image color analysis, Image edge detection, Image segmentation, Monte Carlo Sampling, Object-based stochastic model} } 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.

12 - Geometric Feature Extraction by a Multi-Marked Point Process . F. Lafarge et G. Gimel'farb et X. Descombes. IEEE Trans.

Mots-clés : Shape extraction, Spatial point process, Geometrie stochastique, fast optimization, Texture, remote sensing. @ARTICLE{pami09b_lafarge, author = {Lafarge, F. and Gimel'farb, G. and Descombes, X.}, title = {Geometric Feature Extraction by a Multi-Marked Point Process }, year = {2010}, month = {septembre}, journal = {IEEE Trans.

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.

13 - A formal Gamma-convergence approach for the detection of points in 2-D biological images. D. Graziani et G. Aubert et L. Blanc-Féraud.

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.

Then we define an approximating sequence of functionals for which we prove the Γ-convergence to the initial one.

16 - Insertion of 3D-primitives in mesh-based representations: Towards compact models preserving the details. F. Lafarge et R. Keriven et M. Brédif. IEEE Trans. Image Processing, 19(7): pages 1683-1694, juillet 2010. Mots-clés : 3-D reconstruction, Graph-cut , Shape extraction, urban scenes. @ARTICLE{lafarge_tip2010, author = {Lafarge, F. and Keriven, R. and Brédif, M.}, title = {Insertion of 3D-primitives in mesh-based representations: Towards compact models preserving the details}, year = {2010}, month = {juillet}, journal = {IEEE Trans.

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.

17 - Extended Phase Field Higher-Order Active Contour Models for Networks. T. Peng et I. H. Jermyn et V. Prinet et J. Zerubia.

H. and Prinet, V. and Zerubia, J.}, title = { Extended Phase Field Higher-Order Active Contour Models for Networks}, year = {2010}, month = {mai}, journal = {International Journal of Computer Vision}, volume = {88}, number = {1}, pages = { 111-128}, url = {http://www.springerlink.com/content/d3641g2227316w58/}, keyword = {Contour actif, Champ de Phase, Shape prior, Parameter analysis, remote sensing, Road network extraction} } 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.

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.

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.
