Filtering off noise from fringe patterns is important for the processing and analysis of interferometric fringe patterns. Spin filters proposed by the author have been proven to be effective in filtering off noise without blurring and distortion to fringe patterns with small fringe curvature. But spin filters still have problems processing fringe patterns with large fringe curvature. We develop a new spin filtering with curve windows that is suitable for all kinds of fringe pattern regardless of fringe curvature. The experimental results show that the new spin filtering provides optimal results in filtering off noise without distortion of the fringe features, regardless of fringe curvature.
Understanding the spatial patterns of plant communities is important for sustainable wetland ecosystem management and biodiversity conservation. With the rapid development of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, UAV-borne hyperspectral data with high spatial resolution have become ideal for accurate classification of wetland plant communities. In this study, four dominant plant communities (Phragmites australis, Typha orientalis, Suaeda glauca, and Scirpus triqueter) and two unvegetated cover types (water and bare land) in the Momoge Ramsar wetland site were classified. This was achieved using UAV hyperspectral images and three object-and pixel-based machine-learning classification algorithms [random forest (RF), convolutional neural network (CNN), and support vector machine (SVM)]. First, spectral derivative analysis, logarithmic analysis, and continuum removal analysis identified the wavelength at which the greatest difference in reflectance occurs. Second, dimensionality reduction of hyperspectral images was conducted using principal component analysis. Subsequently, an optimal feature combination for community mapping was formed based on data transformation (spectral features, vegetation indices, and principal components). Image objects were
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
