Ice Floe Identification in Satellite Images Using Mathematical Morphology and Clustering about Principal Curves
利用数学形态学与主曲线聚类识别卫星图像中的浮冰
Identification of ice floes and their outlines in satellite images is important for understanding physical processes in the polar regions, for transportation in ice-covered seas, and for the design of offshore structures intended to survive in the presence of ice. At present this is done manually, a long and tedious process that precludes full use of the great volume of relevant images now available. We describe an accurate and almost fully automatic method for identifying…
