Multidomain feature fusion method for small object classification: MDFF

application of image fusion (object fusion) for forest classification in northern forests of iran

forest classification on the basis of satellite images is a promising technique both for primary map production and for map updating and forest monitoring. for accurate for-est classification into three classes, using mapping by canopy cover density “high spatial resolution satellite images have to be used in order to obtain the required spatial detail” [schneider, 1999]. at the same time, the ...

Data Fusion for Object Classification

Developing a New Method in Object Based Classification to Updating Large Scale Maps with Emphasis on Building Feature

According to the cities expansion, updating urban maps for urban planning is important and its effectiveness is depend on the information extraction / change detection accuracy. Information extraction methods are divided into two groups, including Pixel-Based (PB) and Object-Based (OB). OB analysis has overcome the limitations of PB analysis (producing salt-pepper results and features with hole...

A Classification Method for E-mail Spam Using a Hybrid Approach for Feature Selection Optimization

Spam is an unwanted email that is harmful to communications around the world. Spam leads to a growing problem in a personal email, so it would be essential to detect it. Machine learning is very useful to solve this problem as it shows good results in order to learn all the requisite patterns for classification due to its adaptive existence. Nonetheless, in spam detection, there are a large num...

Data Fusion for Topographic Object Classification

This paper presents research conducted into the automatic recognition of features and objects on topographic maps (for example, buildings, roads, land parcels etc.) using a selection of shape description methods developed mostly in the field of computer vision. In particular the work here focuses on the proposal and evaluation of fusion techniques (at the decision level of representation) for t...
