欧氏聚类算法支持下的点云数据分割

欧氏聚类算法是多元统计中的一种重要分类方法,可以将其应用于测绘领域中点云数据的分割。本文首先计算点云数据中两点之间的欧氏距离,将距离小于指定阈值作为分为一类的判定准则;然后迭代计算,直至所有的类间距大于指定阈值,完成欧氏聚类分割。具体步骤为：①利用Octree法建立点云数据拓扑组织结构;②对每个点进行k近邻搜索,计算该点与k个邻近点之间的欧氏距离,最小归为一类;③设置一定的阈值,对步骤②迭代计算,直至所有类与类之间的距离大于指定阈值。试验证明,欧氏聚类算法对不同测量技术手段获取的点云数据均具有适用性,可以成功对点云数据进行分割,分割效果良好。     

Assessing quality of volunteer crowdsourcing contributions: lessons from the Cropland Capture game

Volunteered geographic information (VGI) is the assembly of spatial information based on public input. While VGI has proliferated in recent years, assessing the quality of volunteer-contributed data has proven challenging, leading some to question the efficiency of such programs. In this paper, we compare several quality metrics for individual volunteers’ contributions. The data were the product of the ‘Cropland Capture’ game, in which several thousand volunteers assessed 165,000 images for the presence of cropland over the course of 6 months. We compared agreement between volunteer ratings and an image's majority classification with volunteer self-agreement on repeated images and expert evaluations. We also examined the impact of experience and learning on performance. Volunteer self-agreement was nearly always higher than agreement with majority classifications, and much greater than agreement with expert validations although these metrics were all positively correlated. Volunteer quality showed a broad trend toward improvement with experience, but the highest accuracies were achieved by a handful of moderately active contributors, not the most active volunteers. Our results emphasize the importance of a universal set of expert-validated tasks as a gold standard for evaluating VGI quality.     

Integrating ASTER and GLASS broadband emissivity products using a multi-resolution Kalman filter

In this study, the multi-resolution Kalman filter (MKF) algorithm, which can handle multi-resolution problems with high computational efficiency, was used to blend two emissivity products: the Global LAnd Surface Satellite (GLASS) (BBE) product and the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) narrowband emissivity (NBE) product. The ASTER NBE product was first converted into a BBE product. A new detrending method was used to transfer the BBEs into a process suitable for the MKF. The new detrending method was superior to the two existing methods. Finally, both the de-trended GLASS and ASTER BBE products were incorporated into the MKF framework to obtain the optimal estimation at each scale. Field measurements collected in North America were used to validate the integrated BBEs. Visually, the fusion map showed good continuity, with the exception of the border areas, and the quality of the fusion map was better than that of the original maps. The validation results indicate that the MKF improved the BBE product accuracy at the coarse scale. In addition, the MKF was capable of recovering missing pixels at a finer scale.

Data analysis of continuous gravitational wave: Fourier transform – II

In this paper we obtain the Fourier Transform of a continuous gravitational wave. We have analysed the data set for (i) a 1-yr observation time and (ii) an arbitrary observation time, for an arbitrary location of detector and source, taking into account the effects arising due to the rotational as well as orbital motion of the Earth. As an application of the transform we considered spin-down and N -component signal analysis.
