Atsr-wfa New Algorithms for Hot Spot Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two new algorithms have been developed and tested for the ATSR World Fire Atlas. A first one based on basic threshold on the 1.6 Micron channel in order to fully exploit the ATSR-1 time series back to 1991 and called Algo 3; a second one based on geographic and time adaptive threshold called Algo 4. The two algorithms have been prototyped and tested under different conditions, and their results are discussed in respect to Algo 1 and Algo 2 implemented since 15 years. Pros and cons of using the results of Algo 3 and Algo 4 instead of (or in synergy with) Algo 1 and Algo 2 are discussed depending on the land cover and season.

Screening the ESA ATSR-2 World Fire Atlas (1997--2002)
We screened the algorithm 2 (308 K threshold) European Space Agency (ESA) World Fire Atlas (WFA), for the period 1997–2002, using ancillary land cover, nightlights and volcanic activity datasets, combined with statistical techniques to detect the occurrence of space-time clusters of anomalous observations. The WFA is built using night time data from the Along Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR) on...
متن کاملGlobal fire activity patterns (1996–2006) and climatic influence: an analysis using the World Fire Atlas
Vegetation fires have been acknowledged as an environmental process of global scale, which affects the chemical composition of the troposphere, and has profound ecological and climatic impacts. However, considerable uncertainty remains, especially concerning intra and inter-annual variability of fire incidence. The main goals of our global-scale 5 study were to characterise spatial-temporal pat...
متن کاملDiscovery of feature-based hot spots using supervised clustering
Feature-based hot spots are localized regions where the attributes of objects attain high values. There is considerable interest in automatic identification of feature-based hot spots. This paper approaches the problem of finding feature-based hot spots from a data mining perspective, and describes a method that relies on supervised clustering to produce a list of hot spot regions. Supervised c...
متن کاملAtsr World Fire Atlas: Can We Find a Trend in the Longest Global Fire Distribution Series?
The ATSR World Fire Atlas is the longest global and consistent fire distribution series. The fire detection algorithms capacities and limitations will be discussed together with the method used to analyse the fire distribution trends. This trends are then presented by continent or sub continent and the first attempt to understand these evolution by Land Cover type is performed.
متن کاملSpatial smoothing and hot spot detection for CGH data using the fused lasso.
We apply the "fused lasso" regression method of (TSRZ2004) to the problem of "hot- spot detection", in particular, detection of regions of gain or loss in comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) data. The fused lasso criterion leads to a convex optimization problem, and we provide a fast algorithm for its solution. Estimates of false-discovery rate are also provided. Our studies show that the n...
