Procapra Przewalskii Tracking Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Based on Improved Long and Short-Term Memory Kalman Filters.

This paper presents an autonomous unmanned-aerial-vehicle (UAV) tracking system based on an improved long and short-term memory (LSTM) Kalman filter (KF) model. The system can estimate the three-dimensional (3D) attitude and precisely track the target object without manual intervention. Specifically, the YOLOX algorithm is employed to track and recognize the target object, which is then combined with the improved KF model for precise tracking and recognition. In the LSTM-KF model, three different LSTM networks (f, Q, and R) are adopted to model a nonlinear transfer function to enable the model to learn rich and dynamic Kalman components from the data. The experimental results disclose that the improved LSTM-KF model exhibits higher recognition accuracy than the standard LSTM and the independent KF model. It verifies the robustness, effectiveness, and reliability of the autonomous UAV tracking system based on the improved LSTM-KF model in object recognition and tracking and 3D attitude estimation.

[Estimation of organic matter content of north fluvo-aquic soil based on the coupling model of wavelet transform and partial least squares].

For improving the estimation accuracy of soil organic matter content of the north fluvo-aquic soil, wavelet transform technology is introduced. The soil samples were collected from Tongzhou district and Shunyi district in Beijing city. And the data source is from soil hyperspectral data obtained under laboratory condition. First, discrete wavelet transform efficiently decomposes hyperspectral into approximate coefficients and detail coefficients. Then, the correlation between approximate coefficients, detail coefficients and organic matter content was analyzed, and the sensitive bands of the organic matter were screened. Finally, models were established to estimate the soil organic content by using the partial least squares regression (PLSR). Results show that the NIR bands made more contributions than the visible band in estimating organic matter content models; the ability of approximate coefficients to estimate organic matter content is better than that of detail coefficients; The estimation precision of the detail coefficients fir soil organic matter content decreases with the spectral resolution being lower; Compared with the commonly used three types of soil spectral reflectance transforms, the wavelet transform can improve the estimation ability of soil spectral fir organic content; The accuracy of the best model established by the approximate coefficients or detail coefficients is higher, and the coefficient of determination (R2) and the root mean square error (RMSE) of the best model for approximate coefficients are 0.722 and 0.221, respectively. The R2 and RMSE of the best model for detail coefficients are 0.670 and 0.255, respectively.

[Inversion of organic matter content of the north fluvo-aquic soil based on hyperspectral and multi-spectra].

The present study aims to assess the feasibility of multi-spectral data in monitoring soil organic matter content. The data source comes from hyperspectral measured under laboratory condition, and simulated multi-spectral data from the hyperspectral. According to the reflectance response functions of Landsat TM and HJ-CCD (the Environment and Disaster Reduction Small Satellites, HJ), the hyperspectra were resampled for the corresponding bands of multi-spectral sensors. The correlation between hyperspectral, simulated reflectance spectra and organic matter content was calculated, and used to extract the sensitive bands of the organic matter in the north fluvo-aquic soil. The partial least square regression (PLSR) method was used to establish experiential models to estimate soil organic matter content. Both root mean squared error (RMSE) and coefficient of the determination (R2) were introduced to test the precision and stability of the modes. Results demonstrate that compared with the hyperspectral data, the best model established by simulated multi-spectral data gives a good result for organic matter content, with R2=0.586, and RMSE=0.280. Therefore, using multi-spectral data to predict tide soil organic matter content is feasible.
