Individual tree crowns delineation using local maxima approach and seeded region growing technique
Novotný, Jan ; Hanuš, Jan ; Lukeš, Petr ; Kaplan, Věroslav
Remote sensing applications in forestry can profit from a rapid development of optical sensors. Applied algorithms should be suited to the new properties of the data (very high resolution and wide spectral range). Segmentation of the image into objects is an important task in forestry applications of optical remote sensing. Segmentation of individual tree crowns involves two parts — detection and delineation phase. Local maxima approach and seeded region growing technique are presented as the key concepts. Furthermore improvements, namely histogram equalization and Voronoi diagram, are incorporated. Two datasets were processed and results of the segmentation are presented. Hyperspectral data with spatial resolution of 0.8m were found as a suitable for segmentation process with 84% and 78% accuracy of detection phase and 64% and 52% accuracy in delineation phase respectively. Finally discussion of recommended settings in the algorithm is presented.

Surface roughness and resistivity of thin films
Franc, J. ; Novotný, Jan
Surface finish of alumina thin film substrates was measured with stylus profilometer. A connection between the obtained values of Ra and the thin film resistance was studied. No correlation can be found owing to big stylus radius and computation method used in profilometer.

Technolgy of materials preparation for the high sensitivity infrared detectors
Novotný, Jan ; Zelinka, Jiří ; Franc, J.
Single crystals of triglycine sulphate (TGS) doped with L-alanin, lysin and with Co.sup.2+.sup., Cd.sup.2+.sup. and PO.sub.4./sub..sup.3-.sup. were grown from aqueous solutions by means of slow cooling method. Concentration of doping elements varied from 5 to 20mol. per cent. Morphology, domain structure and P-E hysteresis loops have been investigated. TGS single crystals doped with Co.sup.2+.sup. and PO.sub.4./sub..sup.3-.sup. show the inernal fields as high as 217 kV/m with peculiarities in the hysteresis loops. The best hysteresis loop has been obtained on TGS crystal doped with Lysin and Cd.sup.2+.sup. ions.
