Registering and resampling images in STSDAS

Registering different images can be difficult, especially if the images to be registered are images at different wavelengths, where features in one image may look entirely different or be absent from the second image. Using two new packages soon to be added to the STSDAS package, REGISTER and RESAMPLE, this job is done automatically. The REGISTER package allows the user to determine the amount of translation, rotation, and/or magnification needed to make two images, spectra, or time series congruent. The methods implemented to compute the registration parameters use: a set of the pixel coordinates of the same features identified in two files, or the FITS coordinate transformation parameters in the headers of two data files, or a single feature identified as the peak of a cross-correlation between two vectors. The coefficients describing the registration are defined by the equations (for a two-dimensional image): x = a + bx + cy, y = d + ex + fy, where (X,Y) are the pixel coordinates of a feature in the reference image, (x,y) are the pixel coordinates of a feature in the secondary image, and the computed coefficients are a, b, c, d, e, and f. Results may be produced by linking the output of REGISTER to RESAMPLE in a command language procedure. The output from REGISTER and the input to RESAMPLE consists of a matrix of coefficients (a through f above) fully specifying the registration. The RESAMPLE package resamples simple vector or image data for a given amount of translation, rotation (images only), and magnification, or reflection of the science data. Specific options included are: image rotation about the FITS reference pixel; scale changes, i.e. magnification or demagnification (for images, independently on both axes); simple translation; reflection (for images, about one or both axes); and resampling and registration to a reference data set. Output from the RESAMPLE task is the resampled image which may then be displayed and compared with the reference image.

Report of the subpanel on resampling functions

The state of the art and anticipated requirements for resampling in applications of remote sensing are examined. It is noted that the wide range of potential applications and expanded needs for resampling versatility in new imaging sensors leads to a concern for creating standardized test data sets and ground training sites. Several research areas are defined including the development of (1) a theory for defining an input psf of an instrument such that upon resampling of the processed data into the desired output grid the radiometric and geometric properties are a best estimate of the true upwelling radiances; (2) algorithms for estimating missing data or for ignoring missing data; (3) optimal resampling functions; (4) standard data sets; and (5) merit functions for assessing resampling techniques.

Moment preserving constrained resampling with applications to particle-in-cell methods

The Moment Preserving Constrained Resampling (MPCR) algorithm for particle resampling is introduced and applied to particle-in-cell (PIC) methods to increase simulation accuracy, reduce compute cost, and/or avoid numerical instabilities. The general algorithm partitions the system space into smaller subsets and resamples the distribution within each subset. Further, the algorithm is designed to conserve any number of particle and grid moments with a high degree of accuracy (i.e. machine accuracy). The effectiveness of MPCR is demonstrated with several numerical tests, including a use-case study in gyrokinetic fusion plasma simulations. Finally, the computational cost of MPCR is negligible compared to the cost of particle evolution in PIC methods, and the tests demonstrate that periodic particle resampling yields a significant improvement in the accuracy and stability of the results.

Resampling and data augmentation for short-term PV output prediction based on an imbalanced sky images dataset using convolutional neural networks

Integrating photovoltaics (PV) into electricity grids is challenged by potentially large fluctuations in power generation. In recent years, sky image-based PV output prediction using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has emerged as a promising approach to forecasting fluctuations. A key challenge is imbalanced sky image datasets: because of the geography of solar PV system installations, sky image datasets are often rich in sunny condition data but deficient in cloudy condition data. This imbalance contrasts with the fact that model errors are dominated by cloudy condition performance. In this study, we attempt to remedy this by exploring the enrichment and augmentation of an imbalanced sky images dataset for two PV output prediction tasks: nowcasting (predicting concurrent PV output) and forecasting (predicting 15-minute-ahead future PV output). We empirically examine the efficacy of using different resampling and data augmentation approaches to create a rebalanced dataset for model development. A three-stage greedy search is used to determine the optimal resampling approach, data augmentation techniques and over-sampling rate. The results show that for the nowcast problem, resampling and data augmentation can effectively enhance the model performance, reducing overall root mean squared error (RMSE) by an average of 4%, or a 15 std. (standard deviation) of improvement compared to the variability of the baseline model. In contrast, the treatment RMSE for the forecast problem nearly always overlaps the baseline performance at the ± 2 std. level. The optimal resampling approach expands on the original dataset by over-sampling the minority cloudy data, with the best results from large over-sampling rate (e.g., 4 ~ 6 times over-sampling of cloudy images).

A quantitative assessment of resampling errors

Applications associated with digital geographic imagery are subject to great diversity in required cell size, cartographic projection, etc. The need for resampling remote sensing scaner data is evident in all but the most undemanding cases. It is shown that proper resampling of such data is dependent in important ways on the detailed knowledge of the original scanner's effective point-spread function and to the desired point-spread function of resampled data. When both of these are known, it is relatively straightforward to compute the resampling coefficients which do the best job of approximating the shape and position of the synthesized point-spread function. The resulting synthesized psf are compared with an ideal psf located at various interpixel positions and any differences observed as errors.

Landsat D Thematic Mapper image resampling for scan geometry correction

The Landsat D system is described, and the geometric correction processing for the Thematic Mapper (TM) is reviewed. The resampling procedure (the generation of a TM output image) is analyzed with emphasis on the effect of sampling geometry on output image. Effects of scan gaps and spacecraft jitter on output image are studied by means of a simulation of the sampling and resampling processes for three sampling geometries. Visual inspection of the resampling results shows that the resampling algorithm works excellently under all conditions and that distortion is visible only in the rare case of large gaps between scans.

An optical systems analysis approach to image resampling

All types of image registration require some type of resampling, either during the registration or as a final step in the registration process. Thus the image(s) must be regridded into a spatially uniform, or angularly uniform, coordinate system with some pre-defined resolution. Frequently the ending resolution is not the resolution at which the data was observed with. The registration algorithm designer and end product user are presented with a multitude of possible resampling methods each of which modify the spatial frequency content of the data in some way. The purpose of this paper is threefold: (1) to show how an imaging system modifies the scene from an end to end optical systems analysis approach, (2) to develop a generalized resampling model, and (3) empirically apply the model to simulated radiometric scene data and tabulate the results. A Hanning windowed sinc interpolator method will be developed based upon the optical characterization of the system. It will be discussed in terms of the effects and limitations of sampling, aliasing, spectral leakage, and computational complexity. Simulated radiometric scene data will be used to demonstrate each of the algorithms. A high resolution scene will be "grown" using a fractal growth algorithm based on mid-point recursion techniques. The result scene data will be convolved with a point spread function representing the optical response. The resultant scene will be convolved with the detection systems response and subsampled to the desired resolution. The resultant data product will be subsequently resampled to the correct grid using the Hanning windowed sinc interpolator and the results and errors tabulated and discussed.

Improving Enzyme Optimum Temperature Prediction with Resampling Strategies and Ensemble Learning

Accurate prediction of the optimal catalytic temperature ( T opt ) of enzymes is vital in biotechnology, as enzymes with high T opt values are desired for enhanced reaction rates. Recently, a machine learning method (temperature optima for microorganisms and enzymes, TOME) for predicting T opt was developed. TOME was trained on a normally distributed data set with a median T opt of 37 °C and less than 5% of T opt values above 85 °C, limiting the method’s predictive capabilities for thermostable enzymes. Due to the distribution of the training data, the mean squared error on T opt values greater than 85 °C is nearly an order of magnitude higher than the error on values between 30 and 50 °C. Here, we apply ensemble learning and resampling strategies that tackle the data imbalance to significantly decrease the error on high T opt values (>85 °C) by 60% and increase the overall R 2 value from 0.527 to 0.632. The revised method, temperature optima for enzymes with resampling (TOMER), and the resampling strategies applied in this work are freely available to other researchers as Python packages on GitHub.

Quantum frequency resampling

In signal processing, resampling algorithms can modify the number of resources encoding a collection of data points. Downsampling reduces the cost of storage and communication, while upsampling interpolates new data from limited one, e.g., when resizing a digital image. We present a toolset of quantum algorithms to resample data encoded in the probabilities of a quantum register, using the quantum Fourier transform to adjust the number of high-frequency encoding qubits. We discuss advantage over classical resampling algorithms.

Resampling study

The author has identified the following significant results. The nearest neighbor and cubic convolution resampling algorithms were applied to a variety of images extracted from LANDSAT MSS data. A comparison of the results demonstrated that (1) cubic convolution can cause spreading of small features and can introduce noticeable overshoot (ringing) into the data; (2) cubic convolution attenuates the high spatial frequencies compared to the original and nearest neighbor resampled data; and (3) cubic convolution generally produces photographic products of superior visual quality. The effects of the resampling algorithms on multispectral classification were not conclusively determined due to the small number of images tested.

An optimized cubic interpolator for image resampling

It is noted that the cubic resampling function is only one member of a family of functions, defined by the single parameter of the slope of the cubic function at its first zero crossing, whose other members are in some cases superior to the standard cubic. This superiority is especially noteworthy with respect to the extent of gray level overshoot induced by the resampling process at high contrast edges. It is shown that there is an optimum member of this 'parametric cubic convolution' family which minimizes the mean-squared radiometric error arising from interpolation. This interpolator requires no additional computation time over the conventional cubic one. These conclusions are supported and illustrated by resampling simulations with both a high resolution digitized aerial image and a Landsat Multispectral Scanner image.

A projection method for particle resampling

Particle discretizations of partial differential equations are advantageous for high-dimensional kinetic models in phase-space due to their better scalability than continuum approaches with respect to dimension. Complex processes collectively referred to as particle noise hamper long time simulations with particle methods. One approach to address this problem is particle mesh adaptivity, or remapping, known as particle resampling and remeshing. Here, this work introduces a resampling method that projects particles to and from a (finite element) function space. The method is simple, using standard sparse linear algebra and finite element techniques, and it preserves all moments up to the order of a polynomial represented exactly by the continuum function space. It is distinguished from most other mesh-based methods in that new particle positions and number are decoupled from the mesh, allowing particle and continuum meshes to be adapted relatively independently. While this work is developed with structured particle and continuum phase-space grids on 1X + 1V Vlasov-Poisson models of Landau damping and two-stream instability, the method is well-suited to unstructured grids. Stable long time dynamics are demonstrated up to time T = 500. Reproducibility artifacts and data are publicly available.

Derivation of Integrated Load Distributions from Resampled Computational Data

Principal component analysis (PCA) has been the center of many surrogate models used to characterize fluid flows in recent years. However, little work has been done to character- ize the uncertainty in the PCA transform itself and its effect on derived surrogate models. To explore the uncertainty, a typical interpolated surrogate model is constructed for a represen- tative aerodynamic body from computational data. The computational data is then resampled to explore the robustness of the PCA transformation. The variations of the model predictions during this resampling are analyzed to get a measure of confidence in the PCA transformation, which is then applied to the interpolated surrogate model to get uncertainty on integrated force predictions. An initial test case has been explored with promising results.

Waveform resampling with LMN method

In this article, resampling is a common technique applied in digital signal processing. Based on the Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT), we apply an optimization called here the LMN method to achieve fast and robust re-sampling. In addition to performance comparisons with some other popular methods, we illustrate the effectiveness of this LMN method in a particle physics experiment: re-sampling of waveforms from Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers.

Modified cubic convolution resampling for Landsat

An overview is given of Landsat Thematic Mapper resampling technique, including a modification of the well-known cubic convolution interpolator (nearest neighbor interpolation) used to provide geometric correction for TM data. Post launch study has shown that the modified cubic convolution interpolator can selectively enhance or suppress frequency bands in the output image. This selectivity is demonstrated on TM Band 3 imagery.
