본 논문에서는 IR 영상추적을 위하여 가린 표적의 실제 중심을 예측하는 추적창 조절(target window adjustment) 기법을 제시한다. 대표적 분할 추적(patch tracking) 방식인 특징점 추적(feature point tracking)은 표적의 중심과 특징점을 coupling하여 가린 표적의 실제 중심을 예측할 수 있으나, 형상 정보가 적은 영상에서 표적의 ROI(Region of Interest)는 특징점의 분포만으로는 구할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 상관추적의 추적창 조절 기법과 특징점 추적의 coupling 기법을 결합하여 표적이 장애물에 가리는 경우에도 안정적인 추적창을 유지한다.

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) observations are powerful tools to monitor surface's displacement very accurately, induced by earthquake, volcano, ground subsidence, glacier movement, etc. Especially, radar interferometry (InSAR) which utilizes phase information related to distance from sensor to target, can generate displacement map in line-of-sight direction with accuracy of a few cm or mm. Due to decorrelation effect, however, degradation of coherence in the InSAR application often prohibit from construction of differential interferogram. Offset tracking method is an alternative approach to make a two-dimensional displacement map using intensity information instead of the phase. However, there is limitation in that the offset tracking requires very intensive computation power and time. In this paper, efficiency of parallel computing has been investigated using high performance computer for estimation of glacier velocity. Two TanDEM-X SAR observations which were acquired on September 15, 2013 and September 26, 2013 over the Narsap Sermia in Southwestern Greenland were collected. Atotal of 56 of 2.4 GHz Intel Xeon processors(28 physical processors with hyperthreading) by operating with linux environment were utilized. The Gamma software was used for application of offset tracking by adjustment of the number of processors for the OpenMP parallel computing. The processing times of the offset tracking at the 256 by 256 pixels of window patch size at single and 56 cores are; 26,344 sec and 2,055 sec, respectively. It is impressive that the processing time could be reduced significantly about thirteen times (12.81) at the 56 cores usage. However, the parallel computing using all the processors prevent other background operations or functions. Except the offset tracking processing, optimum number of processors need to be evaluated for computing efficiency.
