It is important to consider the role of scale for texture analysis since its multiscale attribute of image texture. In this paper a textural detector based on 2D Gabor function and visual textural perception is established first then based on the textural detector and recent developed theory of time-scale space decomposition-a general class extending wavelet transform, an energy distribution based texture anal sis method is proposedx. The texture analysis technique gives textural energy representation between spatial space and scale space and provides a hierarchical analysis framework for image texture. They can detect different scale texture features correspond to the visual texture perception and have the ability to recognize texture image effectively.

imageprocessing applications and especially those in the area of remotesensing are often characterized by a high degree of complexity. We introduce a general framework, called 'active fusion', that actively selects and combines information from multiple sources in order to obtain a reliable result at reasonable costs. A sample implementation of parts of the framework is given using Bayesian networks and decision theoretic techniques for the task of agricultural field classification. This experiment shows a significant reduction in the number of information sources required for a reliable decision.

A pixel is not an "atom". Most imageprocessing algorithms basically assume that a pixel is not dividable; in other words, its inside is homogeneous consisting of only one classification class. This assumption is, however, not true for images, in particular remotesensingimages, taken by a sensor with coarse resolution. In these images even a single image pixel may contain more data than two classification classes, which means that a pixel has an underlying heterogeneous structure internally. This paper discusses the statistical properties of these heterogeneous pixels, namely mixels. The difference between our work and previous work comes from the formulation of the problem-we focus on overall statistical properties that a set of pixels will show in the image intensity space. This formulation introduces our new stochastic model, mixel density, which also provides a proper interpretation for so-called long-tail density.

A Fabry-Perot annular summing spectroscopy technique has been used at the University of Wisconsin's Pine Bluff Observatory to acquire geocoronal Balmer-a line profile data with significantly improved precision and height resolution. The double-etalon Fabry-Perot interference pattern is imaged onto a Photometrics PM512 CCD chip, thus enabling light to be gathered in multiple spectral bins simultaneously. In comparison with scanning systems we used earlier, the high quantum efficiency of the CCD and the multi-channel detection associated with the Fabry-Perot annular summing technique have enabled us to save a factor of about 10 in the integration time required for studies of the line profile. As a result, we are now able to both more precisely observe the line shape of the very faint (1 - 10 R) Balmer-alpha emission and obtain data using shorter integration times. Our data illustrate the scientific potential for using this technique for the study of very faint extended emission line sources. The increase in the signal-to-noise of our data has enabled us to examine Balmer-alpha profile asymmetries which we have found to be compatible with predictions that on the order of 10% of the geocoronal Balmer-alpha excitation arises from cascades due to higher-member solar Lyman series excitation. This fine structure was overlooked in previous Balmer-alpha studies aimed at determining non-Maxwellian dynamical properties of exospheric hydrogen;we find that cascade excitation largely masks the expected very small dynamical perturbations to the line profile at low shadow heights, and must be more thoroughly studied before drawing conclusions about exospheric dynamics. Accounting for cascade also leads to more realistic determinations of exospheric hydrogen temperatures near the exobase. We will discuss both technical issues associated with annular summing spectroscopy as well as gecoronal Balmer-alpha line profile data obtained using this technique.

In this paper, we describe an interpretation tool likely to identify the arcs of a network generated by an automatic road network extraction system. This system is based on the variable use of various extraction methods: intensive for low-level processes, restricted for higher-level processes. A very special attention is drawn to the efficiency evaluation of this high-level module and to the modelization of the different objects of a scene.

Synthetic aperture radar is an active ranging sensor that is very sensitive to terrain slope. From available information included in radar image pixel, a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) may be generated. The radargrammetry is a method that derives a topographic map from two overlapping radar images, a set of homologous points and platform motion and geometry parameters. This method is based on the parallax in range direction. The stereoscopic radar image analysis consists of three main processing steps: (1) selection and plotting of homologous points, (2) elevation calculation based on the geometry of radar images (height and distance between the antennas, and look angles), and (3) elevation interpolation in order to generate a DEM. We develop an automatic research of homologous points location in the two images, taking into account geometry of radar image acquisition and curvature of the planet. This is based on automatic analysis of shape recognition determined by a threshold on pixel radiometric gradient. We use this method by an iterative way. Their elevation is calculated and interpolated on a regular grid to generate a DEM. The elevation accuracy depends on spatial resolution. This method has been tested on AIRSAR and Magellan images.

Neural networks have been used to classify high resolution remote-sensed data. Experiments have demonstrated the potential of neural networks for clustering large number of ground cover instances using supervised methods. This paper will describe a new algorithm of unsupervised learning, based on artificial neural network. Its performance has been compared with the competitive learning algorithm. The efficiency of this approach has been demonstrated through experimental results obtained on real-world of multispectral remotesensing data.
