In recent years, the determination of global image orientation, i.e. global SfM, has gained a lot of attentions from researchers, mainly due to its time efficiency. Most of the global methods take relative rotations and ...

This paper proposes several methods for training a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for learning the similarity between images of silk fabrics based on multiple semantic properties of the fabrics. In the context of the ...

At 48 years of age CORONA-KH-4B images are important for actual urban planning in Bangladesh, where no old maps or aerial images exist, indicating locations of former water courses that are no longer visible, but causing ...

Collective perception of connected vehicles can sufficiently increase the safety and reliability of autonomous driving by sharing perception information. However, collecting real experimental data for such scenarios is ...

The development of automated and autonomous vehicles requires highly accurate long-term maps of the environment. Urban areas contain a large number of dynamic objects which change over time. Since a permanent observation ...

Matching images containing large viewpoint and viewing direction changes, resulting in large perspective differences, still is a very challenging problem. Affine shape estimation, orientation assignment and feature description ...

Deep learning classification models require large amounts of labeled training data to perform properly, but the production of reference data for most Earth observation applications is a labor intensive, costly process. In ...

Land use (LU) is an important information source commonly stored in geospatial databases. Most current work on automatic LU classification for updating topographic databases considers only one category level (e.g. ...

Recently, great progress has been made in formulating dense disparity estimation as a pixel-wise learning task to be solved by deep convolutional neural networks. However, most resulting pixel-wise disparity maps only show ...

This study investigates the ongoing postseismic deformation induced by two moderate mainshocks of Mw 6.1 and Mw 6.0, 2017 Hojedk earthquake in Southern Iran. Available Sentinel-1 TOPS C-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) ...
