Edge and Line Detection in Polarimetric SAR Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new scheme for detecting edges and lines in multichannel SAR images is proposed. The line detector is constructed from the edge detector. The latter is based on multivariate statistical hypothesis tests applied to log-intensity SAR images. The raw results are vectorized by a traditional bright line extraction process. The scheme is illustrated by extracting dark linear structures on various fullpolarimetric SAR images.

Evaluation of the Wishart Test Statistics for Polarimetric SAR Data
A test statistic for equality of two covariance matrices following the complex Wishart distribution has previously been used in new algorithms for change detection, edge detection and segmentation in polarimetric SAR images. Previously, the results for change detection and edge detection have been quantitatively evaluated. This paper deals with the evaluation of segmentation. A segmentation per...

Change detection using remote sensing images can be classified into three methods: algebra-based, transfor...
متن کاملExtended ratio edge detector for despeckled SAR image evaluation
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images due to the usage of coherent imaging systems are affected by speckle. So lots of despeckling filters have been introduced up to now to suppress the speckle. Hence, objective and subjective evaluation of the denoised SAR images becomes a necessity. Thereby lots of objective evaluating estimators are introduced to evaluate the performance of despeckling filte...
