Abstract: Seed maturity in peanut ( Arachis hypogaea L.) determines economic return to a producer because of its impact on seed weight, and critically influences seed vigor and other quality characteristics. During seed development, the inner mesocarp layer of the… Read More

Geographic Generalization in Airborne RGB Deep Learning Tree Detection
Abstract: Tree detection is a fundamental task in remote sensing for forestry and ecosystem ecology applications. While many individual tree segmentation algorithms have been proposed, the development and testing of these algorithms is typically site specific, with few methods evaluated… Read More
Congratualtions to Guohao Yu for a Successful Proposal Defense!
Congratulations to our labmate Guahao Yu for successfully defending his research proposal! Defending an oral research proposal is the second of four milestones to completing a Ph.D. at the University of Florida. Guohao is planning to advance image segmentation techniques… Read More
Overcoming Small Minirhizotron Datasets Using Transfer Learning
Abstract: Minirhizotron technology is widely used for studying the development of roots. Such systems collect visible-wavelength color imagery of plant roots in-situ by scanning an imaging system within a clear tube driven into the soil. Automated analysis of root systems… Read More
Drought Symposium at Colorado State University
Don’t miss the Drought Symposium at Colorado State University on June 21/22! Speakers include Detlef Weigel, Malia Gehan, Duke Pauli, Alina Zare, Brook Moyers, William Beavis, Chris Topp, and Mike Olsen. Alina Zare will discuss machine learning methods for phenotyping.
Possibilistic Fuzzy Local Information C-Means for Sonar Image Segmentation
Abstract: Side-look synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) can produce very high quality images of the sea-floor. When viewing this imagery, a human observer can often easily identify various sea-floor textures such as sand ripple, hard-packed sand, sea grass and rock. In… Read More
Multiple-instance learning-based sonar image classification
Abstract: An approach to image labeling by seabed context based on multiple-instance learning via embedded instance selection (MILES) is presented. Sonar images are first segmented into superpixels with associated intensity and texture feature distributions. These superpixels are defined as the… Read More
Environmentally-Adaptive Target Recognition for SAS Imagery
Abstract: Characteristics of underwater targets displayed in synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) imagery vary depending on their environmental context. Discriminative features in sea grass may differ from the features that are discriminative in sand ripple, for example. Environmentally-adaptive target detection and… Read More
Classification Label Map for MUUFL Gulfport Released!
We are excited to announce that we have released a classification label map for the MUUFL Gulfport co-registered hyperspectral and Lidar Campus 1 image . The MUUFL Gulfport data set was collected in November 2010 over the campus of the… Read More
Partial Membership Latent Dirichlet Allocation for Soft Image Segmentation
Abstract: Topic models (e.g., pLSA, LDA, sLDA) have been widely used for segmenting imagery. However, these models are confined to crisp segmentation, forcing a visual word (i.e., an image patch) to belong to one and only one topic. Yet, there… Read More
