This work modelled the spatial distribution of the rodent species that act as hosts in the transmission cycle of the parasitic tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. The rodent distribution was modelled in relation to landscape characteristics in four ways, using (1) a Landsat ETM+ derived hard classification, (2) single-image Landsat ETM+ derived NDVI, (3) single-image MODIS 16-day composite ND...

The Landsat-7 ETM+ sensor offers several enhancements over the Landsat-4,5 Thematic Mapper (TM) sensor, including increased spectral information content, improved geodetic accuracy, reduced noise, reliable calibration, the addition of a panchromatic band, and improved spatial resolution of the thermal band. In this paper, we present some initial comparisons between Landsat-5 TM and Landsat-7 ET...

We propose a novel extended translation model (ETM) to counteract some problems in phrase-based translation: The lack of translation context when using singleword phrases and uncaptured dependencies beyond phrase boundaries. The ETM operates on word-level and augments the IBM models by an additional bilingual word pair and a reordering operation. Its implementation in a phrase-based decoder int...

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract – The universal pattern decomposition method (UPDM) has been successfully applied to simulated data for Landsat/ETM+, Terra/MODIS, ADEOS-II/GLI and others using ground-measured data. The UPDM is tailored to decrease dimensions of hyper multi-spectral data that have sensor-independent characteristics and thus exploit hyper multi-s...

The paradigm shift from centralized services into hundreds of thousands of decentralized services changes traffic directions and patterns in the Internet. In that light, overlay providers form logical communication topologies, which effect the underlying telcos’ as well as Internet Service Providers’ (ISP) traffic and network management. Thus, Economic Traffic Management (ETM) principles deal w...
