چکیده

Shadow detection for single image is difficult but has wide applications. This paper proposes a novel and fast shadow detection method based on the Tricolor Attenuation Model [1]. In this study, we analyze the spectral property of outdoor light sources to estimate the parameters of TAM. Then our shadow detection method is proposed by integrate the TAM feature and intensity information. Our method can extract shadows for a single and uncalibrated image without any prior knowledge, even for complex scenes. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

3D Gabor Based Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection

Hyperspectral anomaly detection is one of the main challenging topics in both military and civilian fields. The spectral information contained in a hyperspectral cube provides a high ability for anomaly detection. In addition, the costly spatial information of adjacent pixels such as texture can also improve the discrimination between anomalous targets and background. Most studies miss the wort...

A New Dictionary Construction Method in Sparse Representation Techniques for Target Detection in Hyperspectral Imagery

Hyperspectral data in Remote Sensing which have been gathered with efficient spectral resolution (about 10 nanometer) contain a plethora of spectral bands (roughly 200 bands). Since precious information about the spectral features of target materials can be extracted from these data, they have been used exclusively in hyperspectral target detection. One of the problem associated with the detect...

A multi-scale convolutional neural network for automatic cloud and cloud shadow detection from Gaofen-1 images

The reconstruction of the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow is an important step in pre-processing of high-resolution satellite images. The cloud and cloud shadow automatic segmentation could be the first step in the process of reconstructing the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow. This stage is a remarkable challenge due to the relatively inefficient performanc...

Evaluating the Effects of Shadow Detection on QuickBird Image Classification and Spectroradiometric Restoration

Shadows in high resolution imagery create significant problems for urban land cover classification and environmental application. We first investigated whether shadows were intrinsically different and hypothetically possible to separate from each other with ground spectral measurements. Both pixel-based and object-oriented methods were used to evaluate the effects of shadow detection on QuickBi...

Retinex theory-based shadow detection and removal in single outdoor image

Purpose – Shadows, the common phenomena in most outdoor scenes, bring many problems in practical image processing. Shadow detection and removal, especial in uncalibrated outdoor image, is still a difficult problem. The purpose of this paper is to detect and to remove shadows in single outdoor image based on retinex theory. Design/methodology/approach – The shadow extraction algorithm originates...
