INTEGRATION OF LIDAR DATA AND ORTHOIMAGE FOR AUTOMATIC 3D BUILDING ROOF PLANE EXTRACTION2013 •
Automatic 3D extraction of building roofs from remotely sensed data is important for many applications including city modeling. This paper proposes a new method for automatic 3D roof extraction through an effective integration of LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) data and multispectral or-thoimagery. Using the ground height from a DEM (Digital Elevation Model), the raw LIDAR points are separated into two groups. The first group contains the ground points that are exploited to constitute a 'ground mask'. The second group contains the non-ground points which are segmented using an innovative image line guided segmentation technique to extract the roof planes. The image lines extracted from the grey-scale version of the orthoimage are classified into several classes such as 'ground', 'tree', 'roof edge' and 'roof ridge' using the ground mask and colour and texture information from the orthoimagery. During roof plane extraction the lines from the later two classes are used to fit roof planes to the neighbouring non-ground LIDAR points. Finally, a new rule-based procedure is applied to remove planes constructed on trees. Experimental results show that the proposed method successfully removes vegetation and offers high extraction rates.

Building Roof Plane Extraction From LIDAR Data2013 •
—This paper presents a new segmentation technique to use LIDAR point cloud data for automatic extraction of building roof planes. The raw LIDAR points are first classified into two major groups: ground and non-ground points. The ground points are used to generate a 'building mask' in which the black areas represent the ground where there are no laser returns below a certain height. The non-ground points are segmented to extract the planar roof segments. First, the building mask is divided into small grid cells. The cells containing the black pixels are clustered such that each cluster represents an individual building or tree. Second, the non-ground points within a cluster are segmented based on their coplanarity and neighbourhood relations. Third, the planar segments are refined using a rule-based procedure that assigns the common points among the planar segments to the appropriate segments. Finally, another rule-based procedure is applied to remove tree planes which are generally small in size and randomly oriented. Experimental results on three Australian sites have shown that the proposed method offers high building detection and roof plane extraction rates.

During segmentation of the non-ground LIDAR points, the lines from the latter two classes are used as baselines to locate the nearby LIDAR points of the neighbouring planes. For each plane a robust seed region is thereby defined using the nearby non-ground LIDAR points of a baseline and this region is iteratively grown to extract the complete roof plane. Finally, a newly proposed rule-based procedure is applied to remove planes constructed on trees. Experimental results show

AUTOMATIC RECONSTRUCTION OF BUILDING ROOFS THROUGH EFFECTIVE INTEGRATION OF LIDAR AND MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY2012 •
Automatic 3D reconstruction of building roofs from remotely sensed data is important for many applications including city modeling. This paper proposes a new method for automatic 3D roof reconstruction through an effective integration of LIDAR data and multi-spectral imagery. Using the ground height from a DEM, the raw LIDAR points are separated into two groups. The first group contains the ground points that are exploited to constitute a 'ground mask'. The second group contains the non-ground points that are used to generate initial roof planes. The structural lines are extracted from the grey-scale version of the orthoimage and they are classified into several classes such as 'ground', 'tree', 'roof edge' and 'roof ridge' using the ground mask, the NDVI image (Normalised Difference Vegetation Index from the multi-band orthoimage) and the entropy image (from the grey-scale orthoimage). The lines from the later two classes are primarily used to fit initial planes to the neighbouring LIDAR points. Other image lines within the vicinity of an initial plane are selected to fit the boundary of the plane. Once the proper image lines are selected and others are discarded, the final plane is reconstructed using the selected lines. Experimental results show that the proposed method can handle irregular and large registration errors between the LIDAR data and orthoimagery.

Automatic Reconstruction of Roof Models from Building Outlines and Aerial Image DataThe knowledge of roof shapes is essential for the creation of 3D building models. Many experts and researchers use 3D building models for specialized tasks, such as creating noise maps, estimating the solar potential of roof structures, and planning new wireless infrastructures. Our aim is to introduce a technique for automating the creation of topologically correct roof building models using outlines and aerial image data. In this study, we used building footprints and vertical aerial survey photographs. Aerial survey photographs enabled us to produce an orthophoto and a digital surface model of the analysed area. The developed technique made it possible to detect roof edges from the orthophoto and to categorize the edges using spatial relationships and height information derived from the digital surface model. This method allows buildings with complicated shapes to be decomposed into simple parts that can be processed separately. In our study, a roof type and model were determined...

Automatic Reconstruction of Building Roofs Using LIDAR and Multispectral Imagery2011 •
Automatic D reconstruction of building roofs from remotely sensed data is important for many applications including automatic city modeling. This paper proposes a new method for automatic roof reconstruction using LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) data and multispectral imagery. Using the ground height from a DEM (Digital Elevation Model), the raw LIDAR points are separated into two groups. The first group contains the ground points that are exploited to constitute a 'ground mask'. The second group contains the non-ground points that are used to generate initial roof planes. The structural lines are extracted from the grey-scale version of the orthoimage and they are classified into several classes such as 'ground', 'ground with occasional tree', 'tree', 'roof edge' and 'roof ridge' using the ground mask, the NDVI image (from the multi-band orthoimage) and the entropy image (from the grey-scale orthoimage). The lines from the latter two classes are primarily used to fit initial planes to the neighbouring LIDAR points. Other image lines within the vicinity of an initial plane are selected to fit the boundary of the plane. Once the proper image lines are selected and others are discarded, the final plane is reconstructed using the selected lines. Experimental results show that the proposed method can handle irregular and large registration errors between the LIDAR data and orthoimagery.

In this paper, we describe an algorithm for roof line delineation from LIDAR data which aims at achieving models of a high level of detail. Roof planes are initially extracted by segmentation based on the local homogeneity of surface normal vectors of a digital surface model (DSM). A case analysis then reveals which of these roof planes intersect and which

The Origins and Development of Kano Jigoro's Judo Philosophies2021 •
Kanō Jigorō, the founder of judo, developed a dual philosophy he said encompassed judo: Seiryoku Zenyo • Jita Kyoei. - Best Use of Energy • Mutual Benefit. The paper traces the development of Kano's philosophy from his early days in Tokyo University's second class 1877-1882, a survey mission of European education systems for the Imperial Household 1889-1891, and how it relates to and stems from early English Utilitarian philosophers (John Stuart Mill, Herbert Spencer, etc) and the prime proponent of energism, German physical chemist Wilhelm Ostwald.

The emancipation movements of the past seem to have undergone a subtle transformation: the struggle now is not so much to bring about progress but rather to denounce offenses, express indignation and assert identities, sometimes in order to demand recognition. The individual’s commitment to self-definition and self-appreciation, understood as the exercise of a sovereign right, has become a distinctive sign of our time. The phenomenon of identity attribution has been on the rise over the last twenty years and has been increasingly conflated with belonging. This is particularly the case in relation to the concept of gender and the metamorphoses of the idea of race. In both cases, the rich intellectual tools bequeathed by some of the great thinkers of the last half-century – Sartre, Beauvoir, Lacan, Said, Fanon, Foucault, Derrida – have been reinterpreted in order to shore up the ideals of a new conformism. Roudinesco takes us into the darker corners of identity thinking, where conspiracy theories, rejection of the other and incitement to violence are often part of the mix. But she also points to several paths that could lead us away from despair and toward a possible world in which everyone can adhere to the principle according to which ‘I am myself, that’s all there is to it’ without denying the diversity of human communities or essentializing either universality or difference. This bold and courageous interrogation of identity politics will be of great interest to anyone concerned with the state of our world today.
