Machine Learning based Image Processing Techniques for Satellite Image Analysis -A Survey

摘要

This paper presents the detailed comparison of various image processing techniques for analyzing satellite images. The satellite images are large in size, acquired from long distances and are affected by noise and other environmental conditions. Hence it is necessary to process them so that they can be used by the researchers for analysis. Satellite images are widely used in many real time applications such as in agriculture land detection, navigation and in geographical information systems. In this paper, a review of some popular machine learning based image processing techniques is presented. Also a detailed comparison of various techniques is performed. Limitations in each image processing method are also described. In addition to reviewing of different methods, different metrics for performance evaluation in each of the image processing areas is studied.
