Qin Kun, Chen Yixiang, Gan Shunzi, Feng Xia, Ren Wenli. Review on methods of spatial structural feature modeling of high resolution remote sensing images[J]. Journal of Image and Graphics, 2013, 18(9): 1055-1064. DOI: 10.11834/jig.20130901.
The high resolution remote sensing images can provide detailed ground information
and they have complex spatial structural features. Effectively describing and modeling them will play an important role in better realizing the tasks such as image interpretation
object recognition and extraction
scene understanding
and so on. This paper firstly introduces the concept and properties of spatial structural features
and divides the spatial structural feature into three levels: pixel structure
object structure and scene structure. Then
a systematic review on recent development of spatial structural feature description and modeling methods is presented. The review focuses on the basic principles and research status of these methods
and some advantages and drawbacks are pointed out. Finally
conclusions are drawn and future research directions are discussed.
