111 - Tree Species Classification Using Radiometry, Texture and Shape Based Features. M. S. Kulikova et M. Mani et A. Srivastava et X. Descombes et J. Zerubia. Dans Proc.

We use the notion of shape space proposed by Klassen et al., which provides a shape description invariant to translation, rotation and scaling. The shape features are extracted within a geodesic distance in the shape space. We then perform a classification using a SVM approach. We are able to show that the shape descriptors improve the classification performance relative to a classifier based on radiometric and textural descriptors alone. We obtain these results using high resolution Colour InfraRed (CIR) aerial images provided by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. The image viewpoint is close to the nadir, i.e. the tree crowns are seen from above.

112 - An improved 'gas of circles' higher-order active contour model and its application to tree crown extraction. P. Horvath et I. H. Jermyn et Z. Kato et J. Zerubia. Dans Proc.

In a number of problems, the region takes the form of a collection of circles, eg tree crowns in remote sensing imagery; cells in biological and medical imagery. In~citeHorvath06b, a model of such regions, the `gas of circles' model, was developed based on higher-order active contours, a recently developed framework for the inclusion of prior knowledge in active contour energies. However, the model suffers from a defect. In~citeHorvath06b, the model parameters were adjusted so that the circles were local energy minima. Gradient descent can become stuck in these minima, producing phantom circles even with no supporting data. We solve this problem by calculating, via a Taylor expansion of the energy, parameter values that make circles into energy inflection points rather than minima. As a bonus, the constraint halves the number of model parameters, and severely constrains one of the two that remain, a major advantage for an energy-based model. We use the model for tree crown extraction from aerial images. Experiments show that despite the lack of parametric freedom, the new model performs better than the old, and much better than a classical active contour.

115 - Computing statistics from a graph representation of road networks in satellite images for indexing and retrieval. A. Bhattacharya et I. H. Jermyn et X. Descombes et J. Zerubia.

Most image-based characterizations are not invariant to such variables. However, other semantic entities in the image may be strongly correlated with the entity of interest and their properties can therefore be used to characterize this entity. Road networks are one example: their properties vary considerably, for example, from urban to rural areas. This paper takes the first steps towards classification (and hence retrieval) based on this idea. We study the dependence of a number of network features on the class of the image ('urban' or 'rural'). The chosen features include measures of the network density, connectedness, and `curviness'. The feature distributions of the two classes are well separated in feature space, thus providing a basis for retrieval. Classification using kernel k-means confirms this conclusion.

116 - Nonlinear models for the statistics of adaptive wavelet packet coefficients of texture. J. Aubray et I. H. Jermyn et J. Zerubia. Dans Proc.

In very adapted subbands, they have revealed new bimodal statistics, corresponding to the structure inherent to a texture, and strong dependencies between such bimodal sub- bands, related to phase coherence in a texture. Existing models can capture the former but not the latter. As a first step to- wards modelling the joint statistics, and in order to simplify earlier approaches, we introduce a new parametric family of models capable of modelling both bimodal and unimodal subbands, and of being generalized to capture the joint statistics. We show how to compute MAP estimates for the adaptive basis and model parameters, and apply the models to Brodatz textures to illustrate their performance.

117 - 2D and 3D Vegetation Resource Parameters Assessment using Marked Point Processes. G. Perrin et X. Descombes et J. Zerubia. Dans Proc.

As they enable to study forests at the scale of trees, it is now possible to get a more accurate evaluation of the forest resources, from which can be deduced information of biodiversity and ecological sustainability. In that prospect, automatic algorithms are needed to give a further exploitation of the data and to assist human operators. In this paper, we present a stochastic geometry approach to extract 2D and 3D parameters of the trees, by modelling the stands as some realizations of a marked point process of ellipses or ellipsoids, whose points are the positions of the trees and marks their geometric features. This approach gives also the number of stems, their position, and their size. It is an energy minimization problem, where the energy embeds a regularization term (prior density), which introduces some interactions between the objects, and a data term, which links the objects to the features to be extracted. Results are shown on aerial images provided by the French National Forest Inventory (IFN).

118 - A Higher-Order Active Contour Model for Tree Detection. P. Horvath et I. H. Jermyn et Z. Kato et J. Zerubia. Dans Proc.

Mots-clés : Contour actif, Gaz de cercles, Ordre superieur, Forme, A priori, Extraction de Houppiers. @INPROCEEDINGS{horvath_icpr06, author = {Horvath, P. and Jermyn, I.

The method uses the re- cently introduced ‘higher order active contours’ (HOACs), which incorporate long-range interactions between contour points, and thereby include prior geometric information without using a template shape. This makes them ideal when looking for multiple instances of an entity in an image. We study an existing HOAC model for networks, and show via a stability calculation that circles stable to perturbations are possible for constrained parameter sets. Combining this prior energy with a data term, we show results on aerial imagery that demonstrate the effectiveness of the method and the need for prior geometric knowledge. The model has many other potential applications.

In this study we compare three existing segmentation methods for extracting individual tree crowns from aerial images.‭ ‬The first two methods are probabilistic methods which minimises some energy function while the third is a region growing algorithm.‭ ‬The first probabilistic method is based on a Markov Random Field modelling.‭ ‬We define a prior Markov model to segment the image into three classes‭ (‬background,‭ ‬vegetation and tree centres‭)‬.‭ ‬The prior model embed a circular shape model of the tree crown with a‭ ‬random radius.‭ ‬The data term allows to well position the tree centres onto the image and to describe the tree shape as fluctuations around the circular template.‭ ‬Besides,‭ ‬some long range interactions models the relations between the trees locations,‭ ‬such as some periodicity in case of plantations.‭ The second probabilistic method consists in modeling the trees in the forestry images as random configurations of ellipses or ellipsoids,‭ ‬whose points are the positions of the stems and marks their geometric features.‭ ‬The density of this process embeds a regularization term‭ (‬prior density‭)‬,‭ ‬which introduces some interactions between the objects,‭ ‬and a data term,‭ ‬which links the objects to the features to be extracted.‭ ‬We estimate the best configuration of an unknown number of objects,‭ ‬from which‭ ‬2D and‭ ‬3D vegetation resource parameters can be extracted.‭ ‬To sample this marked point process,‭ ‬we use Monte Carlo dynamics,‭ ‬while the optimization is performed via a Simulated Annealing algorithm,‭ ‬which results in a fully automatic approach.‭ ‬This approach works well on plantations,‭ ‬where there are high spatial relations between the trees,‭ ‬and on isolated trees where‭ ‬3D parameters can be extracted,‭ ‬but some difficulties remain in dense areas.‭ The third method,‭ ‬the region growing algorithm,‭ ‬relies as all region growing methods on good seed points,‭ ‬i.e.‭ ‬in this case approximate locations of the tree crowns.‭ ‬From the seed points the segments are grown according to a grey level value of the neighbouring pixels.‭ ‬The larger the value is the sooner it is connected to the neighbouring segment.‭ ‬The segments stops to grow when all pixels belongs to a segment.‭ ‬This method,‭ ‬contrary the others,‭ ‬will have as a result,‭ ‬segments that have captured the actual shape of the tree crown if the forest is not too sparse.‭ ‬If the forest is too sparse such that the ground is visible,‭ ‬there are problems of finding the seed points.‭ ‬In the cases when the forest is sparse,‭ ‬there are difficulties to separate the tree crowns from the ground.‭ ‬Even if the seed points would be located only at the tree crowns the result will contain a lot of errors since all pixels most belong to a segment,‭ ‬i.e.‭ ‬even the ground pixels must be connected to a segment in this case.‭

The submetric resolution of the data enables to study forests at the scale of trees, and to get a more accurate assessment of the resources such as the number of stems or the forest cover. To develop automatic tools in order to help the inventories in their work and to bring more knowledge about the stands is also nowadays of important economical and environmental concerns. In this paper, we aim at extracting tree crowns from high resolution aerial Color Infrared images (CIR) of forests using marked point processes. Our approach consists in modelling the trees in the forestry images as random configurations of ellipses, whose points are the positions of the stems and marks their geometric features. The density of this process embeds a regularization term (prior density), which introduces some interactions between the objects, and a data term, which links the objects to the features to be extracted.

To sample this marked point process, we use Monte Carlo dynamics while the optimization is performed via a Simulated Annealing algorithm, which results in a fully automatic approach. We present different models for the data term in order to cope with different kinds of stands : plantations, isolated trees and mixed stands.

Les organismes chargés d'en faire l'inventaire, comme l'Inventaire Forestier National (IFN) en France, s'appuient en effet sur ces images pour observer les différentes espèces d'arbres d'une zone boisée, avant de se rendre sur le terrain pour une étude plus poussée. La résolution submétrique des données permet, en outre, d'entrevoir une étude plus fine, à savoir un comptage à l'arbre près et une classification automatique des houppiers (ensemble des branches et du feuillage d'un arbre). Cette évaluation précise des ressources forestières n'est actuellement pas disponible. Aussi, le développement d'outils automatiques, chargés d'aider les gestionnaires du paysage dans leur travail en leur apportant une connaissance des ressources à l'échelle de l'arbre, se révèle-t-il être d'un intérêt grandissant.L'objectif de notre travail est donc d'extraire des houppiers à partir d'images aériennes de forêts à très haute résolution. Notre approche consiste à modéliser les peuplements forestiers par un processus ponctuel marqué d'ellipses, dont les points représentent les positions des arbres et les marques leurs caractéristiques géométriques. La densité de ce processus comporte une composante de régularisation, dite a priori, qui introduit des interactions entre les objets du processus, ainsi qu'une composante d'attache aux données, afin que les objets du processus se positionnent sur les houppiers que l'on souhaite extraire. Il s'agit de trouver la configuration d'objets, en nombre inconnu a priori, qui maximise cette densité. La simulation de tels processus fait appel aux algorithmes de type Monte Carlo par Chaîne de Markov (MCMC) à sauts réversibles, l'optimisation étant réalisée à l'aide d'un recuit simulé.Nous présentons ici un nouveau modèle d'attache aux données. Contrairement à nos précédents modèles testés sur des plantations, ce modèle n'est plus bayésien puisque le terme d'attache aux données est désormais calculé au niveau des objets et non de l'image. Ceci nous permet de travailler sur des images plus générales, avec des densités d'arbres plus variables. Des résultats obtenus sur des images fournies par l'IFN valident ce modèle. Abstract : Aerial and satellite imagery has a key role to play in natural resources management, especially in forestry application. Indeed, forest inventories, such as the French National Inventory (IFN), refer to these images to analyse the different tree species in a stand, before sending a team on the ground to obtain some more advanced knowledge. Moreover, the submetric resolution of the data enables to study forests at the scale of trees, and also to get a more accurate evaluation of the resources such as the number of stems. It would be also of important economical and environmental concerns to develop automatic tools to analyze and monitor forests.We aim at extracting tree crowns from high resolution aerial images of forests. Our approach consists in modelling the forestry images as realizations of a marked point process of ellipses, whose points are the positions of the trees and marks their geometric features. The density of this process embeds a regularization term (prior density), which introduces some interactions between the objects, and a data term, which links the objects to the features to be extracted. Our goal is to find the best configuration of an unknown number of objects, i.e. the configuration that maximizes this density. To sample the marked point process, we use Monte Carlo dynamics (Reversible Jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo), while the optimization is performed via a simulated annealing algorithm.We present here a new model for the data term. Contrary to our previous models tested on plantations images, this model is not Bayesian anymore : the data term is calculated for each object and not for the whole image. This enables us to work on more general images, with variable tree crown densities. Example results are shown on aerial images provided by the French Forest Inventory (IFN).

This is in fact an energy minimization problem, where the energy contains a prior term which takes into account the geometrical properties of the objects, and a data term to match these objects to the image. This stochastic process is simulated via a Reversible Jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo procedure, which embeds a Simulated Annealing scheme to extract the best configuration of objects. We compare here different cooling schedules of the Simulated Annealing algorithm which could provide some good minimization in a short time. We also study some adaptive proposition kernels.

In this paper, we represent a region via a level set of a `phase field' function. The function is not constrained, eg to be a distance function; nevertheless, phase field energies equivalent to classical active contour energies can be defined. They represent an advantageous alternative to other methods: a linear representation space; ease of implementation (a PDE with no reinitialization); neutral initialization; greater topological freedom. We extend the basic phase field model with terms that reproduce `higher-order active contour' energies, a powerful way of including prior geometric knowledge in the active contour framework via nonlocal interactions between contour points. In addition to the above advantages, the phase field greatly simplifies the analysis and implementation of the higher-order terms. We define a phase field model that favours regions composed of thin arms meeting at junctions, combine this with image terms, and apply the model to the extraction of line networks from remote sensing images.
