Contextual Classification of Multispectral Image Data: An Unbiased Estimator for the Context Distribution
Recent investigations have demonstrated the effectiveness of a contextual classifier that combines spatial and spectral information employing a general statistical approach.1.2 This statistical classification algorithm exploits the tendency of certain groundcover classes to occur more frequently in some spatial contexts than in others. Indeed, a key input to this algorithm is a statistical char...
متن کاملImage Ellipticity from Atmospheric Aberrations
We investigate the ellipticity of the point-spread function (PSF) produced by imaging an unresolved source with a telescope, subject to the effects of atmospheric turbulence. It is important to quantify these effects in order to understand the errors in shape measurements of astronomical objects, such as those used to study weak gravitational lensing of field galaxies. The PSF modeling involves...
متن کاملAn Unbiased Risk Estimator for Image Denoising in the Presence of Mixed Poisson-Gaussian Noise
The behavior and performance of denoising algorithms are governed by one or several parameters, whose optimal settings depend on the content of the processed image and the characteristics of the noise, and are generally designed to minimize the mean squared error (MSE) between the denoised image returned by the algorithm and a virtual ground truth. In this paper, we introduce a new Poisson-Gaus...
متن کاملAn (almost) unbiased estimator for the S-Gini index∗
This note provides an unbiased estimator for the absolute S-Gini and an almost unbiased estimator for the relative S-Gini for integer parameter values. Simulations indicate that these estimators perform considerably better then the usual estimators, especially for small sample sizes. 1 The absolute and relative S-gini indices Assume that income is distributed according to a continuous and diffe...
متن کاملThe Minimum Variance Unbiased Estimator
This module motivates and introduces the minimum variance unbiased estimator (MVUE). This is the primary criterion in the classical (frequentist) approach to parameter estimation. We introduce the concepts of mean squared error (MSE), variance, bias, unbiased estimators, and the bias-variance decomposition of the MSE. The Minimum Variance Unbiased Estimator 1 In Search of a Useful Criterion In ...
