研究目的
To design a framework for improving change detection results by fusing the advantages of threshold and clustering methods in optical medium-resolution remote sensing images.
研究成果
The proposed fusion framework effectively reduces false alarms and missed detections in change detection for medium-resolution remote sensing images, achieving higher accuracy and better visual results compared to existing methods. It provides a robust unsupervised approach, though it is computationally more intensive. Future work should extend it to superpixel or object levels and test on other data types.
研究不足
The method is designed for medium-resolution images (e.g., Landsat) and may not work well for very-high-resolution images due to increased variability and 'salt and pepper' effects. It requires more computation time than simpler methods like EM thresholding. Parameters such as overlap threshold and weight need to be set, with optimal values around 0.5, but this may vary with different data sets.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The framework involves generating a difference image from bitemporal images using change vector analysis or image differencing, applying EM threshold and FLICM clustering methods to produce initial change detection maps, and fusing them using an overlap fusion strategy and local Markov random field model to reduce false alarms and missed detections.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Two Landsat ETM+ data sets were used: one from Mexico (512x512 pixels, band 4) showing changes due to a fire, and another from northeast China (400x400 pixels, false color composite) showing crop planting changes. Ground reference maps were manually created by visual analysis.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Landsat ETM+ sensor data, personal computer with 2.2 GHz CPU and 8.00 GB RAM, Matlab 8.4 software.
4:2 GHz CPU and 00 GB RAM, Matlab 4 software.
Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: Preprocessing included co-registration and radiometric correction. Difference images were generated, EM and FLICM methods were applied, parameters (overlap threshold T and weight parameter β) were varied, and fusion was performed. Accuracy was assessed using indices like missed detections, false alarms, total errors, and kappa coefficient.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Quantitative analysis using ratios of errors and kappa coefficient; comparison with five other methods (EM, EMMRF, FLICM, SACM, UDWTAC).
