Point-based integration for 3D object reconstruction from Ladar range images

A method of point-based integration from multiple registered laser radar (Ladar) range images for 3D object reconstruction is presented in this literature. Our method operates surface point data directly and provides a direct way for overlapping data removal. The overlapping areas were detected using a single distance threshold. In order to set the distance threshold, a local point density approach is introduced to solve it. Compared with the mesh-based, volumetric and other points-based integration approaches, our method is simple and fast, and need less storage memory. The approach is performed on various objects with different geometric shapes. The experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and feasibility of our method.

Synthetic-aperture radar autofocus by maximizing sharpness

To focus a synthetic-aperture radar image that is suffering from phase errors, a phase-error estimate is found that, when it is applied, maximizes the sharpness of the image. Closed-form expressions are derived for the gradients of a sharpness metric with respect to phase-error parameters, including both a point-by-point (nonparametric) phase function and coefficients of a polynomial expansion. Use of these expressions allows for a highly efficient gradient-search algorithm for high-order phase errors. The effectiveness of the algorithm is demonstrated with an example.     

Sea Clutter Suppression and Target Detection Algorithm of Marine Radar Image Sequence Based on Spatio-Temporal Domain Joint Filtering

In marine radar target detection, sea clutter will cause a large number of missed alarms and false alarms, which will affect the accuracy of target detection. In order to suppress sea clutter effectively, a sea clutter suppression and target detection algorithm of marine radar image sequence based on spatio-temporal domain joint filtering is proposed in this paper. The proposed method is to add a sea clutter suppression link before detecting the target. Firstly, the marine radar image sequence is transformed into three-dimensional frequency wavenumber domain by three-dimensional fast Fourier transform (3D-FFT), and then the three-dimensional image spectrum is obtained. According to the fact that the sea clutter spectrum obtained from the image spectrum satisfies the dispersion relation of linear wave theory in the three-dimensional frequency wavenumber domain, a sea clutter model is established. Then, through the established sea clutter model, a spatio-temporal domain joint sea clutter suppressor is designed to filter the image spectrum. After that, the filtered image spectrum is transformed by three-dimensional inverse fast Fourier transform (3D-IFFT) to obtain the image sequence in which sea clutter is suppressed. Finally, target detection is carried out for sea clutter suppressed image sequence. The method is validated by using the real data of X-band marine radar. Compared with the classical Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method, the improvement of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is more obvious, and SNR can be increased by 15.3 db at most. In addition, compared with target detection on original images directly, the proposed method has excellent detection rate and can increase detection rates by at least 8%.

Interference synthetic-aperture radars for routine monitoring of ocean phenomena

We consider the principles of radar sounding of the ocean surface using interferometers to reconstruct the level and velocity fields on the ocean surface. Likelihood functions are used to calculate the optimal algorithm of useful-signal isolation and the potential threshold sensitivity of interference synthetic-aperture radars with respect to the fields of the velocity and level of the ocean surface, depending on the instrumental, trajectory, and natural factors. The possibility to use space observations to reconstruct both small-scale fields of the altitude and the orbital velocity of energy-carrying wind waves and mesoscale fields, e.g., the field of altitudes of seismic gravity waves and the velocity field of geostrophic currents, is considered.

Wind-Direction Estimation from Single X-Band Marine Radar Image Improvement by Utilizing the DWT and Azimuth-Scale Expansion Method

In this study, a method based on the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and azimuth-scale expansion is presented to retrieve the sea-surface wind direction from a single X-band marine radar image. The algorithm first distinguishes rain-free and rain-contaminated radar images based on the occlusion zero-pixel percentage and then discards the rain-contaminated images. The radar image whose occlusion areas have been removed is decomposed into different low-frequency sub-images by the 2D DWT, and the appropriate low-frequency sub-image is selected. Images collected with a standard marine HH-polarized X-band radar operating at grazing incidence display a single intensity peak in the upwind direction. To overcome the influence of the occlusion area, before determining the wind direction, the data near the ship bow are shifted to expand the azimuth scale of the data. Finally, a harmonic function is least-square-fitted to the range-averaged radar return of the low-frequency sub-image as a function of the antenna look azimuth to determine the wind direction. Different from the wind-direction retrieval algorithms previously presented, this method is more suitable for sailing ships, as it functions well even if the radar data are heavily blocked. The results show that compared with the single-curve fitting algorithm, the algorithm based on DWT and azimuth-scale expansion can improve the wind-direction results in sailing ships, showing a reduction of 7.84° in the root-mean-square error with respect to the reference.

On the computation of ground state and dynamics of Schrödinger–Poisson–Slater system

In this paper, we deal with the computation of ground state and dynamics of the Schrödinger–Poisson–Slater (SPS) system. To this end, backward Euler and time-splitting pseudospectral methods are proposed for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the nonlocal Hartree potential approximated by solving a Poisson equation. The approximation approaches for the Hartree potential include fast convolution algorithms, which are accelerated by using FFT in 1D and fast multipole method (FMM) in 2D and 3D, and sine/Fourier pseudospectral methods. The inconsistency in 0-mode in Fourier pseudospectral approach is pointed out, which results in a significant loss of high-order of accuracy as expected for spectral methods. Numerical comparisons show that in 1D the fast convolution and sine pseudospectral approaches are compatible. While, in 3D the fast convolution approach based on FMM is second-order accurate and the Fourier pseudospectral approach is better than it from both efficiency and accuracy point of view. Among all these approaches, the sine pseudospectral one is the best candidate in the numerics of the SPS system. Finally, we apply the backward Euler and time-splitting sine pseudospectral methods to study the ground state and dynamics of 3D SPS system in different setups.     

Grid-based photogrammetry system for large scale sheet metal strain measurement

This paper presents a new approach to fast strain measurement with high accuracy for large scale sheet metal based on the surface circular grid and digital close range photogrammetry. A multi-block measuring method of discretization is implemented to archive large scale measurement. The sheet metal is separated into several blocks for respective calculating and joined together by common reference points. A surface circular searching method is presented for fast and robust 3D grid generation. A flexible bundle adjustment method is proposed for large amount 3D grid nodes reconstruction, which employs the conception of sampling points and is proved to be efficient. Furthermore, a multi-stage grid registration method is introduced to improve the accuracy of strain field by correcting the true deformation gradient tensor. A novel system is developed and performances well in actual large scale sheet metal strain measurement. Two accuracy tests confirm that the system strain measurement error is less than 0.2%.     

Three-dimensional image correlator using fast computational integral imaging reconstruction method based on pixel-to-pixel mapping

In this paper, a three-dimensional (3D) image correlator using a fast computational integral imaging reconstruction (CIIR) method based on a pixel-to-pixel mapping is proposed. In order to implement the fast CIIR method, we replace the magnification process in the conventional CIIR by a pixel-to-pixel mapping. The proposed fast CIIR method reconstructs two sorts of plane images; a plane image whose quality is sufficient, and a dot pattern plane image insufficient to view. This property is very useful to enhance the performance of a CIIR-based image correlator. Thus, we apply the fast CIIR method to a CIIR-based image correlator. To show the feasibility of the proposed method, some preliminary experiments on both pattern correlation and computational cost are carried out, and the results are presented. Our experimental results indicate that the proposed image correlator is superior to the previous method in terms of both correlation performance and complexity.
