چکیده

Data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey has given evidence of structures within the Milky Way halo from other nearby galaxies. Both the halo and these structures are approximated by densities based on geometric objects. A model of the data is formed by a mixture of geometric densities. By using an EM-style algorithm, we optimize the parameters of our model in order to separate out these structures from the data and thus obtain a more accurate dataset for the Milky Way.

Matching of Polygon Objects by Optimizing Geometric Criteria

Despite the semantic criteria, geometric criteria have different performances on polygon feature matching in different vector datasets. By using these criteria for measuring the similarity of two polygons in all matchings, the same results would not have been obtained. To achieve the best matching results, the determination of optimal geometric criteria for each dataset is considered necessary....

A Clustering Approach by SSPCO Optimization Algorithm Based on Chaotic Initial Population

Assigning a set of objects to groups such that objects in one group or cluster are more similar to each other than the other clusters’ objects is the main task of clustering analysis. SSPCO optimization algorithm is anew optimization algorithm that is inspired by the behavior of a type of bird called see-see partridge. One of the things that smart algorithms are applied to solve is the problem ...

Spectral-spatial classification of hyperspectral images by combining hierarchical and marker-based Minimum Spanning Forest algorithms

Many researches have demonstrated that the spatial information can play an important role in the classification of hyperspectral imagery. This study proposes a modified spectral–spatial classification approach for improving the spectral–spatial classification of hyperspectral images. In the proposed method ten spatial/texture features, using mean, standard deviation, contrast, homogeneity, corr...
