5 Data Collection: Sensors and Satellites Main issues to be considered Geometrical resolution: the geometrical detail required from the application is of major importance for the choice of the sensor and of both the pre-processing and data analysis algorithms. Spectral resolution: the complexity of the addressed problem and the end-user s requirements involve constraints on the choice of the kind of sensor (active or passive) and on the necessary spectral resolution. Acquisition frequency: high acquisition frequency often results in a high probability to include in the analysis data taken from different sensors (with important consequences in the data analysis phase). Whether conditions: the constraints on the robustness of the system to clouds or atmospheric conditions (e.g. related to the latitude of the investigated area) results in constraints for the choice of both the sensor and the satellite. 9 Data Collection: Application Requirements Ground truth: it is important to understand if it is possible to collect ground truth data for the training of the processing algorithms or if the system should be completely unsupervised. Prior information: it is important to collect all the prior information available on the application in order to translate it in possible useful constraints in the phase of design of algorithms. Ancillary data: it is important to identify possible ancillary data that can be used in the development of the system according to a multisource processing architecture. 10
6 Data Collection: User Needs and Requirements User expectation: given an application, it is important to properly understand the final goal of the users. Different specific goals result in the choice of different processing strategies and algorithms. Cost: the economical cost of the development of the architecture and of the operational use of the system should be properly understood. Processing time: it is important to identify the requirements (if any) related to the expected processing time for the developed service. 11 Data Collection: Requirements Most common assumptions of the techniques present in the literature Images uniformly sampled over the period of interest in corresponding periods on different years. Radiometric issues Sensor: should be possibly the same for all the images of the series; Acquisition season: Should be possibly the same for applications associated to the detection of abrupt changes; Should be properly sampled over the year for applications associated to the monitoring of the seasonal evolutions of phenomena. Atmospheric conditions: Different conditions in different portions of multitemporal images should be compensated (non-stationary effects of the atmosphere); Clouds should be properly detected and removed; Light conditions should be as similar as possible. 12
7 Data Collection: Requirements Geometrical issues Sensor: should be possibly the same for all the items of the temporal series to guarantee a similar acquisition geometry; Satellite orbit: should be possibly the same (ascending or descending); View angle: should be possibly the same, but it may change in multisensor sequences, or in series acquired by sensors with variable incidence angle. Topography: a complex topography makes ortho-rectification and geometrical corrections more difficult and strongly dependent on the quality of available digital elevation model (critical with different view angles). 13 Change Detection: General Architecture X 1 t 1 image Ancillary Data Data Collection X 2 t 2 image Data Pre-processing 1 Data Analysis N Change-Detection ti Products X N t N image 14
8 Data Pre-processing Original Images X 1 X N Very important with optical images t 1 image Radiometric Corrections t N image Mandatory in all change-detection techniques Depends on the specific sensor considered and on the quality of the considered images Depends on the requested acquisition frequency and data availability (careful application, see information theory!) Geometric Corrections & Image Registration Image Filtering Interpolating missing data X 1 X M 15 Data Pre-processing: Atmospheric Corrections Differences in light and atmospheric conditions between the two acquisition times can be mitigated by applying radiometric calibration to the images. Two different approaches can be applied: Absolute calibration: digital numbers are transformed into the corresponding ground reflectance values (radiometric transfer models, regression algorithms applied to ground-reflectance measurements collected during the data acquisition phase). Relative calibration: modification of the histograms, so that the same gray-levels values in the two images can represent the same reflectance values, whatever the reflectance values on the ground may be (histogram matching). The choice of one of the two approaches depends on the particular application considered and on the specific information available. 16
9 Data Pre-processing: Image Registration Generally it is not possible to obtain a perfect alignment between multitemporal images. This is mainly due to local defects in the geometries of the images. Residual misregistration results in a very critical source of noise, which is called registration noise Pixel at t 1 Pixel at t 2 Shift vs. error for 1 x 1 meter pixels ε Misregistration error Generic effect of misregistration Error in area as a function of the displacement in high resolution sensors nge imum error in chan area [m2] Maxi 1 0,8 0,6 0,4 0,2 0 0,00 0,25 0,5 0,75 Shift betw een images [m] Error 17 Data Pre-processing: Registration Noise Effects Elba Island, Landsat-TM August t 1 image Change-detection map ember Sept t 2 image Registration noise t 1 image 18
10 Data Pre-processing: Registration Noise In the remote-sensing literature, different approaches have been proposed to mitigate the effects of residual misregistration between images: Image smoothing approaches and adaptive filtering; Use of spectral bands where investigated changes are not visible for identifying the effects of registration noise on the specific scene analyzed and to reduce them in spectral channels where changes can be detected; t d Modeling approaches: assume that misregistration effects are locally uniform and can be estimated and compensated by analyzing the spatial brightness gradients. Adaptive approaches: estimates the distribution of registration noise in the specific scene of interest and exploits the estimation in the decision process. L.

Assumption: A significant ifi variation in the spectral response of corresponding pixels in the two images can be associated with a land-cover change. Operational conditions: the change detection problem can be solved either with supervised or unsupervised techniques. The second one is the most interesting from an operational point of view. 22

13 Binary CD: Problems Binary change detection in remote-sensing images is characterized by several peculiar factors that render ineffective some of the multitemporal image analysis techniques typically used in other application domains. Some of these factors are: Differences in light conditions, sensor calibration, and ground moisture at the two acquisition dates considered; Absence of a reference background; Lack of a priori information about the shapes of changed areas; Non-perfect alignment (registration noise) between the two considered images; Different acquisition conditions of multitemporal images (view angle, shadows, etc.). 25 Binary CD: Methods Supervised Methods Binary classification techniques, one-class classifiers. Unsupervised Methods Techniques based on the generation and the analysis of the difference/ratio image (DI) (land cover changes can be detected by applying a decision threshold to the histogram of the DI); Techniques based on a multiscale analysis of the multitemporal images; Techniques based on multitemporal PCA; Image regression techniques; Other techniques based on linear data transformations (e.g., MAD). Operational Issues Only unsupervised methods satisfy the requirements of most of the applications. 26

In SAR data decision threshold is fixed to satisfy a given value for the probability of false alarms; Unsupervised Bayesian Framework - Exploits automatic techniques based on both implicit or explicit parameter estimation in an unsupervised framework, and performs change detection either with a context sensitive or insensitive method. 36
19 Binary CD: Difference Image Analysis Fuzzy set techniques Model the ambiguity within the pixels that arises from the overlapping of classes and perform threshold selection. Context-sensitive techniques Assume that pixels are likely to be surrounded by pixels belonging to the same class. Therefore takes advantage from the use of spatial interpixel dependence. Multiscale analysis Models changes at different resolution levels for properly representing complex homogeneous objects in the investigated scene as well as borders of the changed areas and change details. As an example, in the following we focus the attention on the unsupervised Bayesian framework. 37 Difference Image Analysis: Bayesian Framework The discrimination between changed and unchanged classes (in the histogram of the magnitude image) can be carried according to algorithms inspired to the Bayes classification criterion Unchanged (ω n ) h(x D ) Changed (ω c ) T Gray-level value ( XD ) = P ( ωc ) ( XD ωc ) + P ( ωn ) ( XD ωn ) p X P p X P p X Problem: the estimation problem should be solved in an unsupervised way. 38

A priori knowledge unavailable: initialize parameters by applying a technique based on genetic algorithms. Y. Bazi, L. Bruzzone, F.

22 Bayesian Framework: EM-Based Technique P At each iteration of the EM algorithm the value of the likelihood function L(θ) between the difference image distribution and the estimated mixture distribution increases. A local maximum of the log-likelihood function is reached at convergence. It is possible to show that the EM iterative equations for the Gaussian model are as follows: t t t t P P ωn p X i, j ( ωn) p ( ) / ωn ( X i, j / ωn ( ) ( ( ) ) ) X i (, j) t t X(, i j) X D p ( ) ( ) ( ) X(, i j) X D ( X i, j ) p X i, j t+ 1 μn = ( ωn) t t P ( ωn) p ( X ( i, j) / ωn) IJ t X(, i j) X D p ( X ( i, j) ) t t P ( ω ) ( ( ) ) n p X i, j / ω 2 n X ( i, j) (, ) ( (, ) 2 1 ) t t n X i j p X i j μ X t+ D ( σ n ) = t t P ( ωn) p ( X ( i, j) / ωn) t X(, i j) X D p X ( i, j) t+ 1 = ( ) 43 Bayesian Framework: EM-Based Technique At the convergence of the iterative algorithm, the parameters estimated can be used according to three different strategies: Bayes rule for the minimum error (BRME) (pixel based): P P ( ωc ) p ( X D / ωn ) = ( ωn) p( XD / ωc) Bayes rule for the minimum cost (BRMC) (pixel based): Ratio between the costs of missed and false alarms P kp ( ωc ) p ( XD / ωn ) = ( ωn) p( XD/ ωc) 44

Assumption: Each data class (or each set of data classes) in the timespectral domain of the two images can be associated with a specific landcover transition (or with a specific unchanged land-cover class). Operative conditions: only supervised or semi-supervised techniques result in an explicit labeling of land-cover transitions. 46

31 CD in Multitemporal VHR images What are the main differences between change detection in medium resolution (MR)/high resolution (HR) images and change detection in very high resolution (VHR) images? What are ae the most critical ca problems pobe in the analysis ayss of multitemporal VHR images? Can change detection techniques developed for MR/HR images be applied to VHR images with satisfactory results? 61 CD in Multitemporal VHR images July 2006 October 2005 Quickbird images of the city of Trento (Italy) 62
32 CD in Multitemporal VHR images: Problems In VHR images it is particular important t to carefully distinguish i between: Radiometric changes; Semantic changes. Radiometric changes: statistically significant changes between the measured radiometry of corresponding pixels (or objects) in two images acquired at different times. Semantic changes: changes occurred on the ground between the acquisition of the two considered images. In VHR images often radiometric changes do not represent semantic changes (effect much more critical than in MR/HR images). 63 CD in Multitemporal VHR images: Problems Why radiometric changes in corresponding pixels (or objects) of VHR images often do not represent semantic changes? Different geometry (view angle) that results in the acquisition of different parts of the objects on the ground; Difficult co-registration (high amount of residual registration noise); Different extensions of shadows (different acquisition seasons and/or view angles); Saturation effects and artefacts. If not properly modelled these effects lead to a sharp increase of the number of false alarms in the change-detection map. 64

Geometric corrections and co-registration: corrections based on the acquisition architecture and alignment based on the exploitation of structured primitives. Modeling of the residual registration noise: adaptive estimation of the distribution (and the expected effects) of registration noise. Shadow detection and modeling of sources of noise: it is important to model precisely all the sources of noise that result in spectral changes for increasing the reliability and the accuracy of the change detection process.

35 CD in Multitemporal VHR images Standard pixel-based change-detection techniques developed for the analysis of medium resolution images fails when dealing with VHR images as they do not explicitly considers: the residual misregistration (registration noise) among multitemporal images; the high spatial correlation between pixels in a neighborhoods; the intrinsic multiscale nature of objects present in VHR images. 69 Multitemporal VHR images: Registration Noise Even after proper registration and geometrical corrections, VHR multitemporal images generally show a significant ifi residual registration ti noise (RN).

44 CD in VHR Images The estimation of the registration noise distribution can be used in the change detection algorithm for mitigating the effects of the residual misalignment between images. However, we still have to consider two important issues: the high spatial correlation between pixels in a neighborhood; the intrinsic multiscale nature of objects present in VHR images. How modeling high spatial correlation between pixels in a neighborhood in the change-detection process? 87 Context-Sensitive CD in VHR Images CVA at Full Estimation of the RN Resolution Distribution X 1 X 2 1 X 1 VHR Multispectral image t 1 X 2 1 VHR Multispectral image t 2 Multiscale Decomposition Multiscale Decomposition M u l t C i V s A c a l e F.

Thus it is important to introduce multiscale or multilevel strategies in the change detection process. Different techniques can be used for a multiscale decomposition of multitemporal VHR images and for a multiscale analysis, e.g., Wavelets; Gaussian decomposition; Morphological filters. In the following, as an example, an adaptive method based on a multilevel hierarchical segmentation is described. M. Dalla Mura, J.A. Benediktsson, F. Bovolo, L.

48 Hierarchical multilevel segmentation The segmentation map at a generic level l is a partition P l (X) in a set of N l disjoint regions ol s (i.e., P l (X) = { 1 l l o,, on }), with X and s,r = 1,2,, N l l ol s, and such that l = 0,, L-1, and r s: 1. pixels in l are spatially contiguous; N l l 2. ; o s = X s= 1 l l 3. o ; o = s r o s o s 4.

49 Multitemporal Hierarchical Segmentation The procedure for generating parcel maps is based on two steps: Independent hierarchical segmentation of the two considered images; Fusion of the two segmentation maps (SM). 1X1 X 1 1 Homogeneity in the spatial domain Homogeneity in the temporal domain X 1X2 1 Parcel map 97 Multitemporal Hierarchical Parcels: Example Pixel level Parcel level 4 Parcel level 5 Parcel level 6 Parcel level 7 Parcel level 8 98
50 Multilevel Change Vector Analysis Perform hierarchical multilevel feature extraction for each multemporal parcels (hierarchical parcel-based feature extraction). For each pixel, comparison between X 1 and X 2 is carried out by applying the Change Vector Analysis to the spectral values and the related hierarchical context-based features (mean vectors) computed at the two dates: X D ( i, j ) = x ( i, j ) x ( i, j ) 2 1 The difference image M D contains information about changes at different resolution levels. The change-detection map is produced according to a decision threshold (Th) obtained either manually or automatically: ωc M( i,j) ωu X ( i, j) > Th D X ( i,j ) Th u D,j 99 Multilevel Binary CD in VHR Images: Example Study area: urban/rural area, south zone of Trento (Italy).

52 Multilevel Binary CD in VHR Images: Discussion Multilevel segmentation seems a better strategy than other multiscale decomposition methods to model spatio-temporal context and multiscale properties of VHR images as: Adaptively models spatial context of each pixel according to segments; Models the intrinsic multilevel spatial context information present in VHR images; Shows both high sensitivity to geometrical details and high robustness to noisy components in homogeneous areas. Is intrinsically robust to the presence of noisy components. 103 Multiclass CD in VHR Images Multiclass change detection in VHR images can exploit the same architectures adopted in MR and HR change detection, i.e. Post-Classification Comparison (PCC); Direct Multidate Classification (MDC); Compound Classification (CC). The main issue in VHR images is related to the design of classification techniques suitable to the properties of VHR data. 104

At lower levels we can choose spectral features (spatial context is less relevant). L0 At higher levels we can choose spatial features (because the spectral disomogeneity). Problem: very high number of features can result in the Hughes phenomenon in the classification phase. L. Bruzzone, L. Carlin, A Multilevel Context-Based System for Classification of Very High Spatial Resolution Images, IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, Vol. 44, No. 9, 2006,
55 Classification Module Solution: use the SVM classification approach, which was proven robust to work in high dimension feature space. Class 1 Support Vector Class 2 Transformed space A pattern x is associated with one of the two classes according to the function sign[f(x)], where f(x) is the discriminant function associated with the optimal hyperplane and is defined as: f(x) = w Φ(x) + b* SVMs map the data into a higher dimensional feature space, where classes are separated by a hyperplane defined by a vector w andabiasb. 109 CD in Temporal Series of VHR Images What about change detection in long temporal series of VHR remote sensing images? Some techniques are presently under development for addressing this kind of challenging and important problem (see the part of this presentation on VHR SAR images for an example). However the main problem (now almost solved) is related to the very limited data availability. 110
56 Conclusion on CD in Multispectral VHR Images Automatic change detection in multispectral VHR images is very important for a wide range of applications. Some promising techniques have been proposed in the scientific literature for analyzing VHR data. However, there are many open issues and a significant amount of work to carry out in the next years. Some interesting research directions are related to: Improve pre-processing techniques (e.g., automatic co-registration procedures); Define models and techniques for discriminatingi i spectral (radiometric) i changes from semantic changes; Define advanced multiscale and multilevel modeling of multitemporal data. Develop data fusion techniques and change detection on hybrid multitemporal VHR images. 111 LOGO Change Detection in Very High Resolution SAR Images

This leads to a higher change-detection error for changes occurred in high intensity regions of the image than in low intensity regions (i.e., changes are detected in a different way in dark and bright regions. 118
