Band selection, by choosing a set of representative bands in hyperspectral images (HSI), is concerned to be an effective method to eliminate the “Hughes phenomenon”. In this paper, we present a global optimal clustering-based band selection (GOC) algorithm based on the hypothesis that all the bands in a cluster are continuous at their wavelengths. After the clustering result is obtained, we propose...
Kernel based feature extraction method overcomes the curse of dimensionality and captures the non-linearities present in the data. However, these methods are not scalable with large number of pixels found with hyperspectral images. Thus, a small subset of pixels are randomly selected to make the solution of kernel based methods tractable. In this paper, we propose scalable nonlinear component analysis...
In this paper, we propose a multiple line extraction method from multimodal data points in high dimensional space. It can sparsely represent multimodal sensor network data by utilizing high correlation among channels in the data. We exploit the idea of Color Lines, which is a model using high correlation among RGB channels in computer vision. It represents real color images as a collection of multiple...
Graph embedding, as a dimensionality reduction framework, has already drawn great attention in hyperspectral image analysis. Taking locality preserving projection (LPP) as example, LPP utilizes typical Euclidean distance in heat kernel to create an affinity matrix and projects the high-dimensional data into a lower-dimensional space. However, the Euclidean distance is not sufficiently correlated with...
In this paper we present a combined strategy for the retrieval of atmospheric profiles from infrared sounders. The approach considers the spatial information and a noise-dependent dimensionality reduction approach. The extracted features are fed into a canonical linear regression. We compare Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Minimum Noise Fraction (MNF) for dimensionality reduction, and study...
Aiming to simulate a heavy rainfall process with higher spatiotemporal resolution over the Huaihe River Basin (HRB), the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model was adopted with a nested domain setting the spatial resolutions as 15km and 5km, respectively. TRMM 3B42 estimates and meteorological station observations were collected to evaluate the WRF simulation performance on precipitation in...
UDTCDA (universal dynamic threshold cloud detection algorithm) is a new cloud detection method which was proposed recently. This cloud detection method is supported by priori surface reflectance obtained from MODIS surface reflectance product (MOD09). Reflectance of four bands in the wavelength of visible to near infrared are used to detect the cloudy pixels. Because there is a priori reference data...
In the present study, the surface meteorological parameters over Singapore are simulated using WRF-ARW mesoscale model by varying the planetary boundary layer (PBL) parameterization schemes, horizontal resolutions and two land cover data sets (USGS and MODIS). Simulations are conducted with four nested domains having horizontal resolution of 27, 9, 3 and 1 km; 51 vertical levels by using the 1° ×...
This work presents an analysis of the vertical resolution of the temperature and water vapor retrieved by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Unique Combined Atmospheric Processing System (NUCAPS) using averaging kernels as a diagnostic tool. One of the goals of an atmospheric profile retrieval system is to estimate the state of the atmosphere using an optimal set of observations...
A mesoscale modeling investigation of tropical cyclone/hurricane forecast over the Gulf of Mexico has been established under the NASA/HBCU Renewable Energy and Technology Project to adopt the numerical weather prediction model for possible use in regions where solar equipment will be used. Accurate and reliable forecasting is crucial in regions that have limited resources where renewable solar energy...
