Earthquake-triggered landslide interpretation model of high resolution remote sensing imageries based on bag of visual word

Traditional visual interpretation is often inefficient due to its excessively workload professional knowledge and strong subjectivity.Therefore,building an automatic interpretation model on high spatial resolution remote sensing images is the key to the quick and efficient interpretation of earthquake-triggered landslides.Aiming at addressing this problem,a landslide interpretation model of high-resolution images based on bag of visual word(BoVW)feature was proposed.The high-resolution images were pre-processed,and then BoVW feature and support vector machine(SVM)was adopted to establish an automatic landslide interpretation model.This model was further compared with the currently widely used Histogram of Oriented Gradient(HoG)feature extraction model.In order to test the effectiveness of the method,typical landslide images were selected to construct a landslide sample library,which was subsequently utilized as the foundation for conducting an experimental study.The results show that the accuracy of landslide extraction using this method reaches as high as 89%,indicating that the method can be used for the automatic interpretation of landslides in disaster-prone areas,and has high practical value for regional disaster prevention and damage reduction.

Archean Basement and a Paleoproterozoic Collision Orogen in the Huoqiu Area at the Southeastern Margin of North China Craton: Evidence from Sensitive High Resolution Ion Micro-Probe U-Pb Zircon Geochronology

This paper reports sensitive high resolution ion micro-probe U-Pb zircon ages for the ＂Huoqiu Group＂ and granitoids of the Early Precambrian basement in the Huoqiu area, southeastern margin of the North China Craton. The ＂Huoqiu Group＂ is similar in rock association and metamorphism to the khondalite series, apart from it containing considerable amounts of banded iron formation. All detrital zircons from the ＂Huoqiu Group＂ meta-sedimentary rocks are 3.0 Ga and 2.75 Ga, without any 2.5 Ga and younger ones, as is commonly found in Paleoproterozoic khondalite series in other areas of the North China Craton. In the Huoqiu area, 2.75 Ga and 2.56 Ga granitoids have also been identified. This basement assemblage underwent strong metamorphism during the late Paleoproterozoic （-1.84 Ga） tectonothermal event that is widely developed in the North China Craton. Thus the formation time of the ＂Huoqiu Group＂ can be constrained between 2.75 and 1.84 Ga in terms of detrital and metamorphic zircon ages. It is considered, combined with regional data, that there may be a Paleoproterozoic collision orogen extending in a NWW-SEE direction to the southern margin of the North China Craton.

Length estimation of extended targets based on bistatic high resolution range profile

The approach to estimate the length of extended targets by using the bistatic high resolution range profile（ H RRP） is analyzed in this paper. The relationship between the bistatic H RRP and the monostatic H RRP of extended targets are investigated. It is demonstrated by simulations that the target length measured by the bistatic H RRP is more meaningful and accurate than that by the monostatic HRRP,though the monostatic H RRP has been well developed and widely used in target recognizing and classification. The estimation results of a cone shaped target are present and compared at the end of the paper. To assure the reliability of the simulation,the bistatic H RRP is obtained through the scattering field data calculated by a fullwave numerical method,FE-BI-MLFMA.

SOLID-STATE HIGH RESOLUTION NMR STUDY ON POLY (2, 6-DIMETHYL-1,4-PHENYLENE OXIDE)

Experiments including C-13 spin-lattice relaxation, C-13 heteronuclear dipolar dephasing and H-1 spin diffusion are performed on poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO). The results show that the rotation of the methyl groups in solid PPO is partially restricted, which results in a surprisingly efficient spin diffusion between the aromatic proton and methyl proton characterized by a diffusion time of 150 mu s. The results also show that the aromatic ring in solid PPO is rigid and twisted, which causes all aromatic carbons to be chemically unequivalent.

Radar high resolution range profile recognition via multi-SV method

For radar high resolution range profile (HRRP) recognition, three aspects are of great importance to improve the performance, i.e. discrimination for outlier, classification for inner and an accurate description for feature space. To tackle these issues, a novel target recognition method is designed, denoted by the multiple support vectors (multi-SV) method. With the proposed method, a special framework is constructed by a treble correlate support vector model to segment the feature space to two regions with the distribution of density, and then the description and classification hyperplane for each region are achieved. Based on the support vector framework, this method needs less memory and computation complexity to fit practical radar HRRP recognition. Finally, the experiment based on the measured data verifies the excellent performance of this method.

A 23.75-GHz frequency comb with two low-finesse filtering cavities in series for high resolution spectroscopy

A laser frequency comb with several tens GHz level is demonstrated,based on a Yb-doped femtosecond fiber laser and two low-finesse Fabry-Perot cavities（FPCs） in series.The original 250-MHz mode-line-spacing of the source comb is filtered to 4.75 GHz and 23.75 GHz,respectively.According to the multi-beam interferences theory of FPC,the side-mode suppression rate of FPC schemes is in good agreement with our own theoretical results from 27 dB of a single FPC to43 dB of paired FPCs.To maintain long-term stable operation and determine the absolute frequency mode number in the23.75-GHz comb,the Pound-Drever-Hall（PDH） locking technology is utilized.Such stable tens GHz frequency combs have important applications in calibrating astronomical spectrographs with high resolution.

THE HIGH RESOLUTION SEISMIC TOMOGRAPHIC IMAGE IN QINGHAI—TIBET PLATEAU AND ITS DYNAMIC IMPLICATIONS

The Qinghai—Tibet plateau and its surrounding areas including Indian subcontinent, Xinjiang, Mongolia, is a largest lithosphere convergence place in the world, which characterized by continent\|continent collision with a thick crust and lithosphere. The high resolution seismic surface wave tomographic inversion has been conducted for studying the 3D velocity structure of crust and upper mantle in those areas. The seismic surface waveform data are from the archives of the CDSN, GSN and GEOSCOPE. About 2400 long period surface waveform recordings are available for both dispersion and waveform tomographic inversion. The block inversion by grid 1°×1°in Qinghai—Tibet plateau and 2°×2°in the surrounding areas were adapted. The resulting maps show the high resolution 3D shear wave velocity variation from earth’s surface to 400km depth.

The application of very high resolution satellite image in urban vegetation cover investigation:a case study of Xiamen City

With the technological improvements of satellite sensors, we will acquire more information about the earth so that we have reached a new application epoch of observation on earth environmental change and cartography. But with the enhancement of spatial resolution, some questions have arisen in the application of using traditional image processing and classification methods. Aiming for such questions, we studied the application of IKONOS very high resolution image (1 m) in Xiamen City on Urban Vegetation Cover Investigation and discussed the difference between the very high resolution image and traditional low spatial resolution image at classification, information abstraction etc. It is an advantageous test for the large-scale application of very high resolution data in the future.

New vacuum solar telescope and observations with high resolution

The New Vacuum Solar Telescope （NVST） is a one meter vacuum solar telescope that aims to observe fine structures on the Sun. The main goals of NVST are high resolution imaging and spectral observations, including measurements of the solar magnetic field. NVST is the primary ground-based facility used by the Chinese solar research community in this solar cycle. It is located by Fuxian Lake in southwest China, where the seeing is good enough to perform high resolution observations. We first introduce the general conditions at the Fuxian Solar Observatory and the primary science cases of NVST. Then, the basic structures of this telescope and instruments are described in detail. Finally, some typical high resolution data of the solar photosphere and chromosphere are also shown.

Diagnostic performance of high resolution computed tomography in otosclerosis

AIM To determine the sensitivity and specificity of high resolution computed tomography(HRCT) in the diagnosis of otosclerosis.METHODS A systematic literature review was undertaken to include Level I-III studies(Oxford Centre for Evidenced based Medicine) that utilised HRCT to detect histology confirmed otosclerosis.Quantitative synthesis was then performed.RESULTS Based on available level III literature,HRCT has a relatively low sensitivity of 58%(95%CI: 49.4-66.9),a high specificity,95%(95%CI: 89.9-98.0) and a positive predictive value of 92%(95%CI: 84.1-95.8).HRCT is better at diagnosing the more prevalent fenestral form of otosclerosis but remains vulnerable to inframillimetre,retrofenestral and dense sclerotic lesions,despite the advent of more advanced CT scanners with improved collimation.CONCLUSION Whilst the diagnosis of otosclerosis remains largely clinical,HRCT remains the gold standard imaging of choice for the middle ear and serves as a useful adjunct to the clinician,helping to delineate extent of disease and exclude other causes.

Detection with High Resolution Radar: Advanced Topics & Potential Applications

In a previous companion paper [1], the potential advantages of high resolution radar for improved target detection were introduced. In particular, the concept of shaping both the transmitted waveform and the receiving processor in accordance to the expected target down-range profile was highlighted and performance predictions were provided. In this paper, we present and evaluate an adaptive scheme devised to on-line estimate the target profile, in order to overcome a limited a-priori knowledge. In addition, we introduce a more general model of target impulse response, based on a statistical description, and we discuss the corresponding processing scheme and detection performance.

A DETECTION METHOD OF HIGH RESOLUTION RADAR TARGETS BASED ON POSITION CORRELATION

This paper studies a detection method of targets of high resolution radar operating at the band of millimeter-wave(32-38GHz) under the background of the clutters, and proposes a new nonparametric detection method, which not only does less computation, but also is able to detect multiple extended targets radially distributed along distance "corridor", based on the position (range) correlation information of one-dimensional range images(or called range profiles) of high resolution radar targets. The experimental results, on the real echo data of tank illuminated by the millimeter-wave stepped frequency high resolution radar, have certified that such a method presented in this paper is a very effective detection method for multiple extended targets.

Generation of high resolution sea surface temperature using multi-satellite data for operational oceanography

In the present article, we introduce a high resolution sea surface temperature （SST） product generated daily by Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology （KIOST）. The SST product is comprised of four sets of data including eight-hour and daily average SST data of I km resolution, and is based on the four infrared （IR） satellite SST data acquired by advanced very high resolution radiometer （AVHRR）, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer （MODIS）, Multifunctional Transport Satellites-2 （MTSAT-2） Imager and Meteorological Imager （MI）, two microwave radiometer SSTs acquired by Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 （AMSR2）, and WindSAT with in-situ temperature data. These input satellite and in-situ SST data are merged by using the optimal interpolation （OI） algorithm. The root-mean-square-errors （RMSEs） of satellite and in-situ data are used as a weighting value in the OI algorithm. As a pilot product, four SST data sets were generated daily from Ianuary to December 2013. In the comparison between the SSTs measured by moored buoys and the daily mean KIOST SSTs, the estimated RMSE was 0.71~C and the bias value was -0.08~C. The largest RMSE and bias were 0.86 and -0.26~C respectively, observed at a buoy site in the boundary region of warm and cold waters with increased physical variability in the Sea of Iapan/East Sea. Other site near the coasts shows a lower RMSE value of 0.60~C than those at the open waters. To investigate the spatial distributions of SST, the Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature （GHRSST） product was used in the comparison of temperature gradients, and it was shown that the KIOST SST product represents well the water mass structures around the Korean Peninsula. The KIOST SST product generated from both satellite and buoy data is expected to make substantial contribution to the Korea Operational Oceanographic System （KOOS） as an input parameter for data assimilation.
