Over the past several decades, computers have allowed for the increasingly voluminous and rapid ingest of images. These images, made for machine legibility, are called "operational images," a term coined by Harun Farocki. They are made for machines, by machines; they are not made to represent an object, but are part of an operation. Yet these operational images are only the most recent chapter in a longer history of logistical and instrumental use of images. Through the history of cartography, surveillance, and reconnaissance runs a long tale of instrumentalization, a history of calculable images primed for machine-readability. Before computers allowed for a truly "operational" image that could be harvested and interpreted independently, there were many other logistical images -- only these predecessors kept humans in the operational loop. These days, so-called deep learning allows for a new development in the operational image -- not only are humans excluded, but machines are performing inscrutable assessments; they interpret images and provide conclusions while their rationales remain opaque. These images are part of an interpretive turn. This sort of image use is difficult to demystify, confront, and confound. To contemplate effective strategies, it helps to look at the broader context of subversion of the logistical image, reaching back to early instances of artistic intervention to help inform the present and future.

Abstract:

Mine Counter-Measure (MCM) missions are conducted to neutralise underwater explosives. Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) assists operators by increasing the speed and accuracy of data review. ATR embedded on vehicles enables adaptive missions which increase the speed of data acquisition. This thesis addresses three challenges; the speed of data processing, robustness of ATR to environmental conditions and the large quantities of data required to train an algorithm. The main contribution of this thesis is a novel ATR algorithm. The algorithm uses features derived from the projection of 3D boxes to produce a set of 2D templates. The template responses are independent of grazing angle, range and target orientation. Integer skewed integral images, are derived to accelerate the calculation of the template responses. The algorithm is compared to the Haar cascade algorithm. For a single model of sonar and cylindrical targets the algorithm reduces the Probability of False Alarm (PFA) by 80% at a Probability of Detection (PD) of 85%. The algorithm is trained on target data from another model of sonar. The PD is only 6% lower even though no representative target data was used for training. The second major contribution is an adaptive ATR algorithm that uses local sea-floor characteristics to address the problem of ATR robustness with respect to the local environment. A dual-tree wavelet decomposition of the sea-floor and an Markov Random Field (MRF) based graph-cut algorithm is used to segment the terrain. A Neural Network (NN) is then trained to filter ATR results based on the local sea-floor context. It is shown, for the Haar Cascade algorithm, that the PFA can be reduced by 70% at a PD of 85%. Speed of data processing is addressed using novel pre-processing techniques. The standard three class MRF, for sonar image segmentation, is formulated using graph-cuts. Consequently, a 1.2 million pixel image is segmented in 1.2 seconds. Additionally, local estimation of class models is introduced to remove range dependent segmentation quality. Finally, an A* graph search is developed to remove the surface return, a line of saturated pixels often detected as false alarms by ATR. The A* search identifies the surface return in 199 of 220 images tested with a runtime of 2.1 seconds. The algorithm is robust to the presence of ripples and rocks.

Stem (cell research is one of the most promising and cutting-edge fields i the miedical sciences. It is believed that this innovative research will lead to life-saving treatments in the coming years. As part of their work, stem cell researchers must first determine which of their stem cell colonies are of sufficiently high quality to be suitable for experimental studies and therapeutic treatments. Since colony texture is a major discriminating feature in determining quality. we introduce a non-invasive, semi-automated texture-based stem cell colony classification methodology to aid researchers in colony quality control. We first consider the general problem of textural image segmentation. In a new approach to this problem. we characterize image texture by the subband energies of the image's wavelet decomposition, and we employ a non-parametric support vector machine to perform the classification that yields the segmentation. We also adapt a parametric wavelet-based classifier that utilizes the Kullback-Leibler distance. We apply both methods to a set of benchmark textural images, report low segmentation error rates and comment on the applicability of and tradeoffs between the non-parametric and parametric segmentation methods.
(cont.) We then apply the two classifiers to the segmentation of stem cell colony images into regions of varying quality. This provides stem cell researchers with a rich set of descriptive graphical representations of their colonies to aid in quality control. From these graphical representatiolns, we extract colony-wise textural features to which we add colony-wise border features. Taken together, these features characterize overall colony quality. Using these features as inputs to a multiclass support vector machine, we successfully categorize full stem cell colonies into several quality categories. This methodology provides stem cell researchers with a novel, non-invasive quantitative quality control tool.

Abstract:

Image processing algorithms have developed rapidly in recent years. Imaging functions are becoming more common in electronic devices, demanding better image quality, and more robust image capture in challenging conditions. Increasingly more complicated algorithms are being developed in order to achieve better signal to noise characteristics, more accurate colours, and wider dynamic range, in order to approach the human visual system performance levels.

Full text

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to validate the ability of the Simplified Surface Energy Balance (SSEB) approach and the Simple Method to provide AET estimates for wetland recovery efforts. The study utilizes the MODIS sensor aboard NASA's Terra satellite and SFWMD solar radiation data to derive AET values for South Florida. The SSEB/Simple-Method approach provided mixed results with good agreement with control values during dry season (rave (59) = 0.700, pave < 0.0005) and poor agreement during wet season (rave(46) = 0.137, pave = 0.304). Further refinement is needed to make this method viable for yearly estimates due to the poor performance during wet season months. This approach can prove useful for short term wetland recovery assessment projects that occur during the dry season and/or long term projects that compare AET rates from a site from dry season to dry season.

The next-generation commercial imaging satellites will generate data at several times the rate of current systems. To be commercially successful, these systems must have earth stations as sophisticated as the satellites themselves. Space Imaging has worked with E-Systems to exploit technologies developed over four generations of image processing, analysis and application systems to create a modular, standards-based, earth station for commercial use. A Space Imaging Operations Center can be configured in a variety of ways to provide complete, end-to-end, capabilities, from task generation to receipt of downlink, image processing, and product generation. While it is intended primarily for use with imagery from Space Imaging and other commercial satellites, an Operations Center can also accept, process and manage data from land-based, airborne or seaborne collectors. A sophisticated data management product, Mission Server™, handles and routes all data from signal receipt through final product generation. A unique family of data processing applications permit simultaneous manipulation and analysis of integrated map, image, graphic and text data. Online data storage and archiving are provided by the EMASS® family of products. An Operations Center of any size can accept, process and manage data streams of several hundred megabits per second in real time.

It is desirable for many surveillance applications to have a portable high quality imaging system capable of continuous monitoring in remote locations, often for extended periods of time. Extended operation can be achieved with low power by taking advantage of the fact that no interesting action is occurring in the area of interest most of the time, allowing the camera to be turned off. This type of operation requires some type of trigger to detect when events occur and turn on the camera to collect imagery. A novel technique for this type of detection is the use of signal processing on low spatial and temporal resolution imagery with a low-power processor to detect action events. The low-resolution imager operation and low-power processor allow the system to consume minimal power, while still taking advantage of the information available from the imager. Triggering is done by performing background subtraction on the low resolution imagery to detect scene changes. Although there is extensive research on this subject, no known research has attempted to implement this type of algorithm in a low power system, which puts a significant constraint on the computation that can be performed. This paper describes research conducted at MIT Lincoln Laboratory to develop a power constrained background subtraction technique, and design a low power hardware system that utilizes this form of detection for image based triggering.
