Abstract

In this paper, we propose an extraction method of some features, which describe dynamic properties of atmospheric disturbances. We identify a disturbance in a satellite image by means of a spirals model, knowing that the luminance model is constant levels plus noise. Thus, we define a class-conditional log-likelihood functional, what leads to a least-squares procedure. We compute the estimation of the shape change and motion parameters with a gradient algorithm. Such a processing could be an aid in interactive treatments and in the cloud archives development.
