In this paper we proposed an intelligent PTZ camera system which detects, classifies and tracks moving objects. If a moving object is detected, features are extracted for classification and then realtime tracking follows. We used GMM for detection followed by shadow removal. Legendre moment is used for classification. Without auto focusing, we can control the PTZ camera movement by using center points of the image and object's direction, distance and velocity. To implement the realtime system, we used TI DM6446 Davinci processor. Throughout the experiment, we obtained system's high performance in classification and tracking both at vehicle's normal and high speed motion.

This study investigated how appropriate the classification methods based on conventional spectral characteristics are for high resolution imagery. A supervised classification mixing parametric and non-parametric rules, a method in which fuzzy theory is applied to such classification, and an unsupervised method were performed and compared to each other for accuracy. In addition, comparing the result screen-digitized through interpretation to the classification result using spectral characteristics, this study analyzed the conformity of both methods. Although the supervised classification to which fuzzy theory was applied showed the best performance, the application of conventional classification techniques to high resolution imagery had some limitations due to there being too much information unnecessary to classification, shadows, and a lack of spectral information. Consequently, more advanced techniques including integration with other advanced remote sensing technologies, such as lidar, and application of filtering or template techniques, are required to classify land cover/use or to extract useful information from high resolution imagery.

Pattern recognition using ensemble classifiers is composed of strong classifier which consists of many weak classifiers. In this paper, we used feature extraction to organize strong classifier using static camera sequence. The strong classifier is made of weak classifiers which considers environmental factors. So the strong classifier overcomes environmental effect. Proposed method uses binary foreground image by frame difference method and the boosting is used to train crowdedness model and recognize crowdedness using features. Combination of weak classifiers makes strong ensemble classifier. The classifier could make use of potential features from the environment such as shadow and reflection. We tested the proposed system with road sequence and subway platform sequence which are included in "AVSS 2007" sequence. The result shows good accuracy and efficiency on complex environment.

RGB나 다중분광영상은 높은 공간 해상도로 인해 크기가 작은 물질의 클래스를 부여하는데 있어서는 효과적이지만 분광해상도가 낮아 다양한 종류의 지표물 분류 및 분광적으로 미세한 차이를 보이는 대상 체간의 분류에는 한계를 가지고 있다. 그러나 초분광 영상(Hyperspectral Image)은 대상 객체의 분광 반사곡선을 수백개의 연속적인 분광 파장대 영역으로 상세하게 해당 물체의 정보를 취득할 수 있는 기능을 가지고 있다. 최근 국내에서도 초분광 영상을 이용한 토지피복도 작성 및 환경 모니터링 등 다양한 분야에 적용하기 위한 연구가 시도되고 있다. 최근에는 드론과 같은 소형 UAV를 활용하여 경제적인 비용으로 시공간해상도가 높은 영상을 획득하는 것이 가능하게 되었으며 분광정보를 수집하는 영상 장비의 발전으로 드론에 탑재가 가능한 경량의 소형 초분광센서가 개발됨으로써 보다 높은 분광해상도의 영상을 취득할 수 있게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 효율적인 하천환경조사를 위해 UAV를 활용하여 고해상도 초분광 영상을 취득하였으며, 차원축소법과 분류기 적용에 따른 공간 분류 정확도 분석을 통해 하천환경에 대한 분류 및 평가를 실시하였다. 연구지역에서 획득한 초분광 영상은 노이즈로 인한 영향을 줄이고자 MNF와 PCA 기법으로 차원축소를 수행하였으며, MLC(Maximum Likelihood Classification)와 SVM(Support Vector Machine), SAM(Spectral Angle Mapping) 감독분류기법을 적용하여 하천환경특성에 따른 공간분류를 수행하였다. 연구 결과 MNF기법으로 차원 축소한 영상을 적용하여 MLC 감독분류를 수행하였을 때 가장 높은 분류정확도를 얻을 수 있었으나, 일부 클래스 및 수역의 경계와 그림자 공간에서 주로 오분류가 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

중저해상도 광학영상의 순간시야각(instantaneous filed of view -IFOV)에 포함되는 공간에는 반사특성이 상이한 두 개 이상의 지표물이 존재하는 경우가 대부분이다. 영상분류와 같은 기존의 영상처리기법에서는 하나의 화소가 단일의 지표물을 대표한다는 가정에서 접근하였으나, 최근 화소의 혼합정도를 세분하는 분광혼합분석(spectral mixture analysis)기법이 개발되고 있다. 분광혼합분석법을 이용하여 혼합된 화소에 포함된 지표물을 분해(unmixing) 하고 그 효과를 분석하고자 하여 경기도 광릉국립수목원의 시험림 지역을 대상으로 Landsat-7 ETM＋영상을 이용하여 선형혼합 모델을 적용하였고, 그 결과 각각의 화소를 6개의 End-member의 혼합비로 구분하였다. Endmember의 비율을 나타낸 영상을 분석하여 점유비율에 따른 활엽수와 침엽수의 구분을 할 수 있었고, 각 임상별의 특징도 얻을 수 있었다. 특히 침엽수의 경우 그림자의 효과가 높다는 특성도 파악 할 수 있었다. 분광혼합분석법은 기존의 전통 분류방법과는 달리 다양한 산림의 정보를 추출해 낼 수 있다.

The advantage of the lidar data is in fast acquisition and process time as well as in high accuracy and high point density. However lidar data itself is difficult to classify the earth surface because lidar data is in the form of irregularly distributed point clouds. In this study, we investigated land cover classification using both lidar data and optical image through a supervised classification method. Firstly, we generated 1m grid DSM and DEM image and then nDSM was produced by using DSM and DEM. In addition, we had made intensity image using the intensity value of lidar data. As for optical images, the red, blue, green band of CCD image are used. Moreover, a NDVI image using a red band of the CCD image and infrared band of IKONOS image is generated. The experimental results showed that land cover classification with lidar data and optical image together could reach to the accuracy of 74.0%. To improve classification accuracy, we further performed re-classification of shadow area and water body as well as forest and building area. The final classification accuracy was 81.8%.

Urban land cover classification is role in urban planning and management. So, it's important to improve classification accuracy on urban location. In this paper, machine learning model, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) are proposed for urban land cover classification based on high resolution satellite imagery (KOMPSAT-3A). Satellite image was trained based on 25 m rectangle grid to create training data, and training models used for classifying test area. During the validation process, we presented confusion matrix for each result with 250 Ground Truth Points (GTP). Of the four SVM kernels and the two activation functions ANN, the SVM Polynomial kernel model had the highest accuracy of 86%. In the process of comparing the SVM and ANN using GTP, the SVM model was more effective than the ANN model for KOMPSAT-3A classification. Among the four classes (building, road, vegetation, and bare-soil), building class showed the lowest classification accuracy due to the shadow caused by the high rise building.

Building change monitoring based on building detection is one of the most important fields in terms of monitoring artificial structures using high-resolution multi-temporal images such as CAS500-1 and 2, which are scheduled to be launched. However, not only the various shapes and sizes of buildings located on the surface of the Earth, but also the shadows or trees around them make it difficult to detect the buildings accurately. Also, a large number of misdetection are caused by relief displacement according to the azimuth and elevation angles of the platform. In this study, object-based building detection was performed using the azimuth angle of the Sun and the corresponding main direction of shadows to improve the results of building change detection. After that, the platform's azimuth and elevation angles were used to detect changed buildings. The object-based segmentation was performed on a high-resolution imagery, and then shadow objects were classified through the shadow intensity, and feature information such as rectangular fit, Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) homogeneity and area of each object were calculated for building candidate detection. Then, the final buildings were detected using the direction and distance relationship between the center of building candidate object and its shadow according to the azimuth angle of the Sun. A total of three methods were proposed for the building change detection between building objects detected in each image: simple overlay between objects, comparison of the object sizes according to the elevation angle of the platform, and consideration of direction between objects according to the azimuth angle of the platform. In this study, residential area was selected as study area using high-resolution imagery acquired from KOMPSAT-3 and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Experimental results have shown that F1-scores of building detection results detected using feature information were 0.488 and 0.696 respectively in KOMPSAT-3 image and UAV image, whereas F1-scores of building detection results considering shadows were 0.876 and 0.867, respectively, indicating that the accuracy of building detection method considering shadows is higher. Also among the three proposed building change detection methods, the F1-score of the consideration of direction between objects according to the azimuth angles was the highest at 0.891.

This study proposes fusion image matching method according to land cover property to generate a detailed DEM using the high resolution IKONOS-2 stereo pair. A classified image, consists of building, crop-land, forest, road and shadow-water, is produced by color image with four bands. Edges and points are also extracted from panchromatic image. Matching is performed by the cross-correlation computing after five classes are automatically selected in a reference image. In each of building class, crop-land class, forest class and road class, matching was performed by the grid and edge, only grid, only grid, grid and point, respectively. Shadow-water class was excepted in the matching because this area causes excessive error of the DEM. As the results, edge line, building and residential area could be expressed more dense than DEM by the conventional method.
