Abstract: A computer system that execute a method to stitch satellite images into a wide-angle image. The method includes dividing each of the satellite images into plural subimages, determining whether the subimages include an overlap area that overlaps with adjacent subimages, obtaining cropped subimages by removing the overlap area from the subimages, generating preprocessed satellite images each including the cropped subimages, selecting a reference image and a target image from the preprocessed satellite images, determining plural correspondent pairs in an overlap region between the reference and target images based on a feature matching algorithm, obtaining a transformation matrix by a least-squares algorithm and based on coordinates of the correspondent pairs, obtaining calibrated coordinates for each pixel of the target image by applying the transformation matrix, and stitching the target images into the wide-angle image based on the calibrated coordinates of the target image.

Abstract: Example embodiments include a method that reduces consumption of computer resources in a computer system to reconstruct a shape of a multi-object image using finite terms. The method includes computing an initial function by performing V-system of degree 0 and functions of curves by performing hierarchical V-system. Norms of the functions of curves are compared with a predetermined threshold. A reconstruction function of the shape of the multi-object image is generated by summing the initial function and the functions of curves.

Abstract: A method executed by a computer system to construct an omnidirectional roughness (OR) map of a lunar crater based on a data set of a digital elevation model (DEM) of surface textures of the lunar crater is provided. The method includes setting a center and a first point of the data set, selecting a moving window, utilizing a one point-to-point step when the moving window slides over the DEM, calculating a morphological surface roughness (MSR) that detects a vertical roughness of the lunar crater, calculating a topographic frequency coefficient (TFC) that detects a horizontal roughness of the lunar crater, constructing the OR map, and displaying the OR map to show a surface roughness of the lunar crater.

Abstract: A computer system executes hierarchical MK splines approximation for lunar brightness temperature (TB) data approximation. The computer system constructs a TB model map by generating a final approximation function for constructing an interpolated surface that approximates the TB data set obtained by lunar probe. The method includes executing MK splines approximation to the TB data set with a hierarchy of control lattice from coarsest lattice to densest lattice to iteratively obtain approximation functions. The TB model map is constructed by generating a final approximation function to construct the interpolated surface.

Abstract: A method for creating an image includes identifying data representing an overlapping region in each of a first set and second set of image data, wherein the first and second sets of image data are arranged to represent a first image and a second image respectively, and at least one common feature in both the first image and the second image is identified in the overlapping region. A portion of the data representing a portion of the overlapping region in each of the first and the second sets of image data is discarded to obtain a first set and a second set of modified image data. The first and the second sets of modified image data are combined to a third set of image data arranged to represent a third image including at least a portion of each of the first image and the second image.

Abstract: One embodiment is a method that improves computations of correlation values between a surface roughness and terrain parameters of a terrain surface. The method includes applying the terrain parameters as an input of a Back Propagation Neural Network (BPNN) and the surface roughness as an output of the BPNN; implementing a nonlinear mapping from the input to the output of the BPNN; generating a weight matrix (ω1) and a weight matrix (ω2); and improving computations of the correlation values by calculating a correlation matrix by ω2×ω1, calculating a unit weight which is a sum of absolute values in the correlation matrix, and dividing each value in the correlation matrix by the unit weight.

Abstract: A method constructs an image with improved peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) from a scattered pixel set. The method generates an approximation function that is a linear combination of a plurality of Many-Knot (MK) spline basis functions, and constructs the image with improved PSNR by conducting a least squares treatment on the approximation function to minimize a residual of each pixel value in the scattered pixel set from the approximation function.
