Due to the broadly application of remote sensing imagery, there is an eager need for the classification of objects in the images. The multi-scale classification based on object oriented analysis is not a usual approach for image classification because the users of multi-scale classification do not know how to use the information from multiple scales to do multi-scale classification. Many users rely on some easily accessible tools. nearest neighbour classifier, to do multi-scale classification. The multi-scale classification classifies the images from different scales. The feature values of the object vary from different scales and they may have some trends against scales. These trends may help us to understand multi-scale classification better. This is the scale dependency of features. The difference between multi-scale classification and single-scale classification is not only multiple scales, but also the use of information from different scales. In order to explore the connection between different scales, the research of new features is necessary.

The change detection of remote sensing images means analysing the change information quantitatively and recognizing the change types of the surface coverage data in different time phases. With the appearance of high resolution remote sensing image, object-oriented change detection method arises at this historic moment. In this paper, we research multi-scale approach for high resolution images, which includes multi-scale segmentation, multi-scale feature selection and multi-scale classification. Experimental results show that this method has a stronger advantage than the traditional single-scale method of high resolution remote sensing image change detection.

The study is the preliminary research aiming to apply the usefulness of the GISsystem for classifying suitability of region to the agricultural mechanization. Simplebasic theory of GIS and classification of agricultural mechanization were presented.Nine physical and non-physical parameters as limiting factors were defined and aweight of each parameter was calculated in order to know how far its effect to theagricultural mechanization practice. Data coming from several types, ie: numeric,vector and remote sensing (raster) were prepared to support the process. Twoordoes consisting of five classes were employed to extract suitability classificationof each District in Jawa Barat dan Banten Province. The results show that tendistricts are classified into suitable for applying agricultural mechanization, and therest ten districts are classified into not suitable. Depending on the dynamic characterof limiting factor, suitability class would possibly change along the time. Saveralconclusions and advices for improving research are given.

This paper presents an analysis of performance of several types of the ARTMAP neural network. The performance of the networks is analyzed in the task of classification of satellite images obtained by remote sensing. The analysis is concentrated on the dependence of classification accuracy on the difference in cluster type preferably identified by each of the classifiers. Three types of ARTMAP classifier are compared: fuzzy ARTMAP, Gaussian ARTMAP, and Extended Gaussian ARTMAP The main difference among these classifiers is in the way they determine/represent individual clusters in feature space. Best results are obtained for Extended Gaussian ARTMAP, a modification of the Gaussian ARTMAP neural network that preferably identifies Gaussian-distributed clusters.

In this paper, we address the classification of airborne laser scanning data. We present a novel methodology relying on the use of complementary types of geometric features extracted from multiple local neighbourhoods of different scale and type. To demonstrate the performance of our methodology, we present results of a detailed evaluation on a standard benchmark dataset and we show that the consideration of multi-scale, multi-type neighbourhoods as the basis for feature extraction leads to improved classification results in comparison to single-scale neighbourhoods as well as in comparison to multi-scale neighbourhoods of the same type.

Electrooculography (EOG) signal is widely and successfully used to detect activities of human eye. The advantages of the EOG-based interface over other conventional interfaces have been presented in the last two decades; however, due to a lot of information in EOG signals, the extraction of useful features should be done before the classification task. In this study, an efficient feature extracted from two directional EOG signals: vertical and horizontal signals has been presented and evaluated. There are the maximum peak and valley amplitude values, the maximum peak and valley position values, and slope, which are derived from both vertical and horizontal signals. In the experiments, EOG signals obtained from five healthy subjects with ten directional eye movements were employed: up, down, right, left, up-right, up-left, down-right down-left clockwise and counterclockwise. The mean feature values and their standard deviations have been reported. The difference between the mean values of the proposed feature from different eye movements can be clearly seen. Using the scatter plot, the differences in features can be also clearly observed. Results show that classification accuracy can approach 100% with a simple distinction feature rule. The proposed features can be useful for various advanced human-computer interface applications in future researches.

Semantic segmentation of high-resolution remote sensing images is highly challenging due to the presence of a complicated background, irregular target shapes, and similarities in the appearance of multiple target categories. Most of the existing segmentation methods that rely only on simple fusion of the extracted multi-scale features often fail to provide satisfactory results when there is a large difference in the target sizes. Handling this problem through multi-scale context extraction and efficient fusion of multi-scale features, in this paper we present an end-to-end multi-scale adaptive feature fusion network (MANet) for semantic segmentation in remote sensing images. It is a coding and decoding structure that includes a multi-scale context extraction module (MCM) and an adaptive fusion module (AFM). The MCM employs two layers of atrous convolutions with different dilatation rates and global average pooling to extract context information at multiple scales in parallel. MANet embeds the channel attention mechanism to fuse semantic features. The high- and low-level semantic information are concatenated to generate global features via global average pooling. These global features are used as channel weights to acquire adaptive weight information of each channel by the fully connected layer. To accomplish an efficient fusion, these tuned weights are applied to the fused features. Performance of the proposed method has been evaluated by comparing it with six other state-of-the-art networks: fully convolutional networks (FCN), U-net, UZ1, Light-weight RefineNet, DeepLabv3+, and APPD. Experiments performed using the publicly available Potsdam and Vaihingen datasets show that the proposed MANet significantly outperforms the other existing networks, with overall accuracy reaching 89.4% and 88.2%, respectively and with average of F1 reaching 90.4% and 86.7% respectively.
