Proposed Algorithm for Shadow Identification and Classification in VHR Satellite Imagery
Abstract: The Very High Resolution (VHR) satellite imagery offers great possibilities for urban environments. Unfortunately, shadows cast by buildings in high-density urban environments obscure much of the information in the image, leading to potentially corrupted classification results or blunders in interpretation. The objective of this paper is to propose an algorithm for better identification and classification of shadows in VHR images. Two prime stages were carried out i.e. shadow identification and …

Background Suppression for Visual Surveillance Using SOM
Abstract: AbstractBackground suppression is widely used approach for detection of moving objects in video streams which is the first relevant step of information extraction in many computer vision applications. Aside from the intrinsic usefulness of being able to segment video streams into moving and background components, detecting moving objects provides a focus of attention for recognition, classification, and activity analysis, making these later steps more efficient. An approach based on self-organization …
