An Supervised Artificial Neural Network Method for Sattelite Image Segmentation

By
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.

Water Found on Mars, Google Changed Logo

By
The discovery of water on the surface of Mars has been confirmed by NASA. With this, speculation that withdrawal of life on Earth have occurred on Mars, it could re-debated. Director of Planetary Science Division of NASA James Green has not been able to confirm it. According to James, NASA will investigate more deeply to find the answer. Topics related to water flowing on Mars and all the lively debate on various social media. Start of Twitter and Facebook. Google did not want to miss. The search engine giant directly change the logo on its search engine page by issuing Doodle titled "Evidence of water found on Mars" to celebrate the discovery of NASA. Doodle created by Nate Swinehart shows an illustration of the red planet Mars. The Mars is cool to suck their drinking water from a glass. He also spinning like a planet that is being rotated. The Mars is exactly in the middle of the word "Google", replaces the letter "o". Purple background color selected...

How to choose between the Canon 700D or Nikon D5300

By
Canon EOS   700D   and Nikon   D5300   is a   digital SLR camera   aimed at   novice photographers .   Nevertheless ,   there are   features   on   both cameras are   much the same with   a more   sophisticated   camera   /   semi - pro,   so it   is good enough to   be used   in various   scene conditions .   From the shape   and size ,   at a second glance   something like the   camera .   But   when viewed   more closely ,   overall   more   compact   Nikon   D5300   a few   millimeters   and   about 100   grams lighter .   The new lens   Nikon   18-55mm   VR   II also   shorter   in   the off condition .   This can be achieved   because   the plastic   material   of the   camera   thinner .
