چکیده

In this paper, we build on past efforts with regard to the implementation of an efficient feature tracking algorithm for mass processing satellite images. This generic open-source routine can be applied any type imagery measure sub-pixel displacements between The consists a module (autoRIFT) that enhances computational efficiency and geocoding (Geogrid) mitigates problems found in existing algorithms. When imagery, autoRIFT run grid native image coordinates (such as radar or map) and, when used conjunction Geogrid module, user-defined geographic Cartesian such Universal Transverse Mercator Polar Stereographic. To validate accuracy approach, demonstrate its use ice motion by using ESA’s Sentinel-1A/B data (seven pairs) NASA’s Landsat-8 optical collected over Greenland’s Jakobshavn Isbræ glacier 2017. Feature-tracked velocity errors are characterized stable surfaces, where best pair 6 day separation has X/Y 12 m/year 39 m/year, compared 22 31 16-day separation. Different error sources pairs investigated, seasonal variation dependence temporal baseline analyzed. Estimated velocities were reference derived from DLR’s TanDEM-X SAR/InSAR fast-moving outlet, Sentinel-1 results agree within 4% 3–7% Landsat-8. A comprehensive apples-to-apples comparison is made runtime multiple implementations proposed widely-used “dense ampcor" program NASA/JPL’s ISCE software. shown provide two orders magnitude improvement 20% accuracy.

Policy learning for autonomous feature tracking

When operating under uncertainty, a robust behaviour can often be learned by sampling a large number of cases, planning what to do precisely in those cases (which are deterministic) and then learning a general policy for what to do in future unseen cases. The learning can be done by classifying the actions that can be performed into the states that were met in the training cases. The resulting ...

Feature Tracking for Wide-Baseline Image Retrieval

We address the problem of large scale image retrieval in a wide-baseline setting, where for any query image all the matching database images will come from very different viewpoints. In such settings traditional bag-of-visual-words approaches are not equipped to handle the significant feature descriptor transformations that occur under large camera motions. In this paper we present a novel appr...

Automated image-based tracking and its application in ecology.

The behavior of individuals determines the strength and outcome of ecological interactions, which drive population, community, and ecosystem organization. Bio-logging, such as telemetry and animal-borne imaging, provides essential individual viewpoints, tracks, and life histories, but requires capture of individuals and is often impractical to scale. Recent developments in automated image-based...

Plan-Based Policy-Learning for Autonomous Feature Tracking

Mapping and tracking biological ocean features, such as harmful algal blooms, is an important problem in the environmental sciences. The problem exhibits a high degree of uncertainty, because of both the dynamic ocean context and the challenges of sensing. Plan-based policy learning has been shown to be a powerful technique for obtaining robust intelligent behaviour in the face of uncertainty. ...

Applying Feature Tracking to Particle Image Velocimetry

Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is a popular approach to flow visualisation and measurement in hydroand aerodynamic studies and applications [7]. The fluid is seeded with particles that follow the flow and make it visible. Traditionally, correlation techniques have been used to estimate the displacements of the particles in a digital PIV sequence. Recently, we have successfully applied to PIV ...
