Factorization of multidimensional observation

Observations of a physical system depending on D variables (also called diversities) naturally provide a D-way hypercube of data. A simple data model is based on the decomposition of the observations into a sum of R products between simpler terms, each simple term being related to a unique diversity. In most cases, the factorization is not unique and the search for a solution must be regularized by resorting to constraints. In fact, the goal is to explain observations by R latent variables in a unique way, with a physical meaning. In this context, we present factorization methods, either on matrices (D = 2 diversities) or on tensors (D > 2), exploiting complementary features that are known beforehand, such as: source statistical independence, source nonnegativity, source sparsity, etc… In addition, theoretical principles and algorithms are illustrated by actual unmixing applications in brain and hyperspectral imaging, chemical engineering, communications, internet recommendation systems, etc.

Inverse problem and optimisation

This course focuses on formulating signal and image processing problems as convex optimization problems, analyzing their properties (e.g. existence and uniqueness of solutions) and designing efficient algorithms to solve them numerically. We aim at giving students the background and skills to formulate problems and use appropriate algorithms on their own applications.
Syllabus: * Convex optimization: existence and uniqueness of solutions, subdifferential and gradient, constraints and indicator functions, monotone inclusions, nonexpansive operators and fixed point algorithms, duality, proximal operator, splitting algorithms. * From estimation to optimization: formulating priors and constraints, regularity and parsimony, Bayesian interpretation.
* Inverse problems: well- and ill-posed problems, data fidelity and regularization, study of signal and image recovery problems.

Multi and hyperspectral methods in image processing

The core of the course will focus on the following aspects:
– color theory, interaction between light an matter
– spectral unmixing with linear and non linear mixing models
– dimension reduction and sparse representations
– classification of hyperspectral data
– anomaly detection
– high performance computing
The course will also include basic notions of physics and vision, which are important to understand and take into account when designing an algorithm (for instance, spectral unmixing is a source separation problem, but not all source separation techniques are suited to this problem).

http://phelma.grenoble-inp.fr/en/studies/multi-and-hyperspectral-methods-in-image-processing-wpmtmhm7 Multispectral imaging consists in acquiring several images of the same scene using tens of narrow (e.g. 10 nm) and contiguous spectral bands (e.g. higher than 100 nm) in the visible range (380-780 nm). This enables to characterize objects by their color appearance or by their spectral reflectance function and to study the influence of lighting conditions, viewing geometry, sensor sensibility and material properties on color appearance. This course will cover the main issues related to the acquisition, the processing and the visualization of multispectral images. A variety of study cases (e.g. food industry, medical imaging, automotive industry, cultural heritage) will illustrate this course.
Refining the concept, hyperspectral imaging, also called imaging spectroscopy, consists in acquiring simultaneously hundreds of images of the same scene using hundreds of narrow and contiguous spectral bands. This enables a fine description of the materials that are observed. This field is blooming in a number of applications, from planetary exploration to material sciences in industry, from quality control to astrophysics, from biomedical imaging to airborne and satellite remote sensing. This course will cover the main issues related to the signal and image processing challenges raised by these data and cover the whole chain, from basic notions in instrumentations to a variety of applications (the applications being addressed during the lab sessions).

Water Management in a Non Stationnary Environment

An approach linked with research is privileged in this in-depth module.
It is divided into three parts:
# Meteorology and climatology.
# Geostatistics and spatial data;
# Forecast and management of water resources in a non stationary context.
