Automatic Reconstruction of Building Objects from Multi-Aspect SAR Images

Chapter 7 introduces an approach of automatic reconstruction of building objects from multi-aspect SAR images (AMAR, automatic multi-aspect reconstruction). The POL-CFAR detector, Hough transform, probabilistic description of the detected façade-images, and the maximum-likelihood estimation (ML) of building objects from multi-aspect observed façade-images are discussed. Eventually, in association with a hybrid priority rule of inversion reliability, an automatic algorithm is designed to match multi-aspect façade-images and reconstruct the building objects.
