Multiscale classification of remote sensing images

A huge effort has been applied in image classification to create high-quality thematic maps and to establish precise inventories about land cover use. The peculiarities of remote sensing images (RSIs) combined with the traditional image classification challenges made RSI classification a hard task. Our aim is to propose a kind Read more

Content Based Retrieval

Several applications, such as digital libraries, medicine, biodiversity information systems, deal with large image collections. Thus, it is essential to provide efficient and effective means to retrieve images. This is the objective of the so-called content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems. In these systems, the searching process consists in, for a Read more

Remote sensing

Geographic Information Systems (SIGs) are automated systems whose purpose is storing, analyze and manipulate geographic data. These systems help decision-making on various issues related to environmental and urban public monitoring policies. In addition, they are important in economic activities, such as agriculture and mineral extraction. In this context, Remote Sensing Read more
