A few brief notes on the equivalence of two expressions for statistical significance in point source detections
James Theiler
The problem of point source detection in Poisson-limited count maps has been addressed by two recent papers [M. Lampton, ApJ 436, 784 (1994); D. E. Alexandreas, et al., Nucl. Instr…
Generalized likelihood ratio test detector for a modified replacement model target in a multivariate t-distributed background
James Theiler
A closed-form expression is derived for the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) detector of a subpixel target in a multispectral image whose area and brightness are both unkno…
Deep Snow: Synthesizing Remote Sensing Imagery with Generative Adversarial Nets
Christopher X. Ren, Amanda Ziemann, James Theiler +1
In this work we demonstrate that generative adversarial networks (GANs) can be used to generate realistic pervasive changes in remote sensing imagery, even in an unpaired training…
On the Detectability of Conflict: a Remote Sensing Study of the Rohingya Conflict
Christopher X. Ren, Matthew T. Calef, Alice M. S. Durieux +2
The detection and quantification of conflict through remote sensing modalities represents a challenging but crucial aspect of human rights monitoring. In this work we demonstrate h…
Cycle-Consistent Adversarial Networks for Realistic Pervasive Change Generation in Remote Sensing Imagery
Christopher X. Ren, Amanda Ziemann, Alice M. S. Durieux +1
This paper introduces a new method of generating realistic pervasive changes in the context of evaluating the effectiveness of change detection algorithms in controlled settings. T…
