as the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. this processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...

In this article we present an efficient time lagging interface prediction method with implicit correction (TLIC) for the solution of multi dimensional parabolic problem defined over non overlapping subdomains. The time lagging method have been implemented with different integral multiples spatial spacing displacements from the interface line(s). We considered the additive splitting up method wi...

An ontology for spatial reasoning based on a tesseral representation of space is presented. The principal advantage offered is that the representation has the effect of linearising multi-dimensional space while still supporting translation through the space in any direction and through any number of dimensions. Consequently, all multi-dimensional spatial reasoning can be implemented using one d...

The grey system theory studies the uncertainty of small sample size problems. This paper using grey system theory in the deformation monitoring field, based on analysis of present grey forecast models, developed the spatial multi-point model. By using residual modification, the spatial multi-point residual model was developed in further study. Then, combined with the sedimentation data of Xiaol...

The concept of multifunctional use of marine offshore areas receives increased significance in the light of sustainable development in heavily used marine areas. Here we defined potential areas in the German EEZ for the co-utilization of offshore wind farms and offshore aquaculture applying integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) approaches. We combined a geographic information system (GIS)...

The morphological states of Guyana’s coastal system, at various spatial and temporal scales, are found to be influenced by the formation and migration of mudbanks. Stationary and propagating mudbanks along the coast are investigated with the use of multiple data sources, including aerial photographs, satellite imagery, GPS measurements, and a time series of coastal profile data (1941-1987...

Spurious change is a common problem in urban vegetation change detection by using multi-temporal remote sensing images of high resolution. This usually results from the false-absent and false-present vegetation patches in an obscured and/or shaded scene. The presented approach focuses on object-based change detection with joint use of spatial and spectral information, referring to it as multi-l...

introduction: in most bci articles which aim to separate movement imaginations, µ and β frequency bands have been used. in this paper, the effect of presence and absence of γ band on performance improvement is discussed since movement imaginations affect γ frequency band as well. methods: in this study we used data set 2a from bci competition iv. in this data set, 9 healthy subjects have perfor...

In this paper we present techniques for detecting mines using data acquired at multiple wavelengths (multi-spectral) or at multiple times (multi-temporal). Both types of data employ vector-valued pixels, and therefore they have a common mathematical structure. For the multi-spectral data we show that the performance of standard algorithms can be improved signiÞcantly through spatial whitening w...
