Name: ZHAO Zhongming

Current Appointment: Professor, doctoral supervisor, Department of Remote Sensing Image Processing, Institute of Remote Sensing and Digital Earth (RADI), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

Education:
PH.D, Computer Science, Department of Computer Science, Northwestern Polytechnical University, China, 1996

Master of Computer Application, Department of Computer Science, Northwestern Polytechnical University, China, 1988

Bachelor of Software, Department of Computer Science, Northwestern Polytechnical University, China, 1982

Areas of Specialization:
Specialize in research and development of remote sensing imagery processing such as image restoration, texture analysis and multi-source data fusion, making an intensive study of wavelet theory analysis additionally.

The main areas are as follows:

1. Image restoration

(1) For the first time, combined the EM algorithm with wavelet transform to propose multi-level parameter analysis based on blind signal identification and restoration algorithm with less parameters, higher identification accuracy and computational efficiency.

(2) Transformed the regularization solution for image restoration into wavelet regularization solution, at the same time transformed the constraints in the wavelet form. So the image restoration can be solved in the wavelet domain and treat different channels with different process according to actual situation.

(3) Presented a method of image decomposition with wavelet analysis, then converted the single-channel image restoration problem into multi-channel image restoration problem and reduced constraints of the overall image during restoration as a result.

2. Texture analysis

Applied wavelet transform to texture analysis and focused on space scale properties of texture. Proposed the concept of scale co-occurrence matrix, combined the gray space and scale space, proposed the concept of three-dimensional co-occurrence matrix which reflects both texture scale properties and texture space properties and applied the method to extract texture features. Results show that the texture features derived from three-dimensional co-occurrence matrix are better than those from only scale properties or space properties.

3. Data fusion technology of remote sensing

Proposed the remote-sensing image fusion method based on MRF(Markov Random Field), it can achieve remote-sensing image fusion from different temporal and different sensors, and image fusion of remote-sensing image and GIS data.
