An Supervised Artificial Neural Network Method for Sattelite Image Segmentation

Image segmentation is an important step in image processing (image processing). The main purpose of segmentation is to simplify and or to change the representation of an image into a form that is easier to analyze. Already there are several methods of image segmentation are found, but most of these methods are not suitable for satellite imagery and -Method method requires a knowledge of the initial (a priori knowledge). To overcome these problems, a satellite image segmentation method is developed using an artificial neural network method without learning (unsupervised) called Kohonen's self-organizing map and threshold technique.


Self-organizing map (SOM) is used to adjust the gray level of the pixel based on the value of the color 3-Dimensional (multiple bands) into a 2-Dimensional. In SOM, the input signal of n-tuple and group-kelompoksebanyak m clusters. Each input is connected to all the units are full. Weights obtained by random and small value that will determine the status of the end (final state). The tissue was prepared by orthogonal grid cluster units (neurons), each of which is associated with three internal weights of three layers of satellite imagery. At each step in the training phase, the cluster unit with very coco weight k with the input pattern will be chosen to be the value of the winner (the Winner) by using the minimum euclidean distance (see formula).
Then a threshold technique is used to group (cluster) of the image into separate areas, this method is called TSOM. The study was conducted on two different satellite images prove that the stability, homogeneity, and efficiency of the method compared with iterative methods TSOM self -organizing the data analysis (ISODATA). The stability and homogeneity of the two methods is determined using the procedure selected based on functional models.

Advantages
1 Does not require a prior knowledge or learning (unsupervised).
2 More stable than the ISODATA.
3 two times faster than the ISODATA when running.

Disadvantages
The efficiency of the method depends on the number of iterations and the threshold value is selected manually.

New GoPro Hero Plus, There's WiFi and Bluetooth

GoPro camera line has earned refreshment. Company known for its action camera (cam action) has released the entry-level model called Hero +. Hero + is positioned between the previous series, the Hero and Hero + LCD. That is, he has the ability on Hero and minus a few features of the Hero + LCD. Hero + itself has a body with exactly the same design with Hero. The difference, the new product is equipped with WiFi and Bluetooth wireless capabilities. WiFi and Bluetooth in Hero + can be used to access applications on smartphones GoPro. Through the application, users can control the camera, view the results of the captured video, and edit videos directly from the smartphone. the ability of the Hero + made the same as the Hero + LCD, the record 1080p video at 60fps, compared to 30 fps in Hero. The camera also has an 8-megapixel image sensor, up from 5 megapixels in Hero. Ability to dive into the water also reaches 40 meters. The difference with the Hero + LCD, Hero + is not equipped wit...

Describe feelings, Facebook Presents Emoji Features such as Path

Facebook does not present a Dislike button features, but social networking is confirmed it will bring new features to Like. In addition to drawing the thumb pointed up that has become an icon Like Facebook, users can now express their liking with emoji that express love, laughter, mischievous smile, shock, sadness and anger. The feature is currently being tested in Facebook users in regions of Ireland and Spain, and will soon be rolled to other users around the world. Last month, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has indicated the presence of new features by saying that users will be able to express emotions more broadly on Facebook.
