This book covers the state-of-art image classification methods for discrimination of earth objects from remote sensing satellite data with an emphasis on fuzzy machine learning and deep learning algorithms. Both types of algorithms are described in such details that these can be implemented directly for thematic mapping of multiple-class or specific-class landcover from multispectral optical remote sensing data. These algorithms along with multi-date, multi-sensor remote sensing are capable to monitor specific stage (for e.g., phenology of growing crop) of a particular class also included. With these capabilities fuzzy machine learning algorithms have strong applications in areas like crop insurance, forest fire mapping, stubble burning, post disaster damage mapping etc. It also provides details about the temporal indices database using proposed Class Based Sensor Independent (CBSI) approach supported by practical examples. As well, this book addresses other related algorithms based on distance, kernel based as well as spatial information through Markov Random Field (MRF)/Local convolution methods to handle mixed pixels, non-linearity and noisy pixels. Further, this book covers about techniques for quantiative assessment of soft classified fraction outputs from soft classification and supported by in-house developed tool called sub-pixel multi-spectral image classifier (SMIC). It is aimed at graduate, postgraduate, research scholars and working professionals of different branches such as Geoinformation sciences, Geography, Electrical, Electronics and Computer Sciences etc., working in the fields of earth observation and satellite image processing. Learning algorithms discussed in this book may also be useful in other related fields, for example, in medical imaging. Overall, this book aims to: exclusive focus on using large range of fuzzy classification algorithms for remote sensing images; discuss ANN, CNN, RNN, and hybrid learning classifiers application on remote sensing images; describe sub-pixel multi-spectral image classifier tool (SMIC) to support discussed fuzzy and learning algorithms; explain how to assess soft classified outputs as fraction images using fuzzy error matrix (FERM) and its advance versions with FERM tool, Entropy, Correlation Coefficient, Root Mean Square Error and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) methods and; combines explanation of the algorithms with case studies and practical applications.

sidottu
This book examines the role of maritime power in the ‘Chinese Dream’ of becoming the pre-eminent global power by 2049, a century after the establishment of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). The book argues that China seeks to use its maritime power as part of its quest to attain Great Power status by employing it to these areas: provide deterrence in the maritime domain; assure availability of resources; protecting its sea lines of communication; and in the economic domination of specific developing countries in Asia, Africa, Oceania and South America. Based on a careful examination of primary sources, especially China’s defence white papers and essential works on the topic by prominent Chinese military analysts and institutions, the author systematically unpacks interpretations and analysis of China’s evolving concepts of maritime power. The book traces China’s development and use of maritime power over its long-recorded history, especially from the time it became the People’s Republic of China (1950) to the present (2024) and links the country's maritime past with the present. A comprehensive and detailed study of the evolution of Chinese concepts of maritime power and how it forms an important part of the rejuvenation of the nation and the projection of China as a global power by mid-century, this book will be of interest to researchers studying Asian and Chinese Studies, Military Studies and policy makers at think tanks and government agencies.
