Study on Information Extraction of Water Bodyin Plain RiverNetwork Area Based on Multi-temporalGF-1 Image by LIAO Yubing, ZHOU Feng

“…In order to solve the mixture of pixels such as the towns, shadow and bare earth in the extraction of remote sensing information of water body in Plain River Network Area, based onmulti-temporal GF-1 image, this paper proposes a decision tree model combining the Normalized Differential Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Differential Water Index (NDWI), and near-infrared albedo for water body information extraction, and conducts a study taking the typical plain atthe lower reaches of Yangtze and Huai River.The results show that compared with other methods including single-band threshold and Shadow Water Index (SWI), the multi-temporalspectral information in newly proposed method can effectively eliminate the mixture of pixels such as the towns, shadow and the bare earth, improve the extraction accuracy of smaller water bodies with an overall accuracy of 93% and a Kappa coefficient of 0.85,and reasonably show a spatial distribution of water surface rate with a declining trend from West to East, which could provide a reference for the information extraction of water body in other plains as well.…”

An environment adaptive gesture recognition system based on visible light by Zhu WANG, Hualei ZHANG, Qianhong HU, Zhiwen YU

“…Gesture-based human-machine interaction is becoming more and more important, which can provide users with a better experience in scenarios such as video games and virtual reality.In recent years, researchers have explored different sensing technologies to facilitate gesture recognition, including RF signal, acoustic signal, etc.Compared with these approaches, visible light-based gesture recognition is a more pervasive option.The basic principle is that different gestures will produce unique shadow patterns as they block the visible light, and gesture recognition can be achieved by capturing shadow changes through photoelectric sensors.To address the environment-dependent problem faced by existing solutions, a digit gesture recognition system was designed based on the photoelectric sensor array.In particular, by modeling recordings of the sensor array as images, the temporal and spatial correlation between different sensor recordings was discovered.An environment adaptive gesture recognition method was designed based on CNN-RNN by fusing the spatio-temporal features.To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, a prototype gesture recognition system was designed, named Vi-Gesture.Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms baselines by more than 10% in recognition accuracy.…”
