Description

Airborne LIDAR three-dimensional filtering method based on gray voxel model
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of remote sensing data processing, in particular to an airborne LIDAR three-dimensional filtering method based on a gray voxel model.
Background
The data filtering of an airborne laser radar (LIDAR) is a key technology in the field of current point cloud data processing, and the filtering precision directly affects the quality of products such as a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and the like and the subsequent precision of object classification such as buildings and vegetation. Therefore, the method has important significance for the research of the LIDAR point cloud data filtering technology.
Scholars at home and abroad carry out deep research around point cloud data filtering, and a great number of filtering algorithms are provided, such as filtering methods based on interpolation, gradient, mathematical morphology, three-dimensional connected set construction and cluster segmentation, and the like. Data structures used by these filtering algorithms include grid meshes, irregular triangulated networks (TINs), voxels, and discrete point clouds, among others. Grid meshes and TINs are 2.5-dimensional data structures with which to express airborne LIDAR point cloud data will result in information loss and further impact the integrity of filtering results based on such data structures. The spatial structure and topological information in the discrete point cloud are difficult to utilize, so that the filtering algorithm based on the data structure is difficult to design and low in efficiency; the sizes of all nodes of the octree are different, and the adjacency relation among all nodes is difficult to establish, so that the difficulty of the design of the filtering algorithm based on the data structure is increased. The filtering algorithm based on the voxel data structure can well avoid the defects of the method, because: (1) the voxel structure is a true three-dimensional data structure; (2) The inter-voxel inside the system contains adjacent and topological information. Therefore, the filtering algorithm based on the voxel structure is simpler to design. However, currently existing filtering algorithms based on voxel data structures all use binary voxel structures (i.e. the voxel assignment is based on whether the voxel contains laser point assignment 1 and 0, wherein 1 value voxel corresponds to the target, and 0 value voxel corresponds to the background, respectively) (coloring Wang, yan Xu, and Yu Li. The filtering algorithm considers that the ground target forms a three-dimensional connected set, but when other targets (such as low vegetation and building facades) are connected with the ground target to form the three-dimensional connected set, the algorithm cannot effectively distinguish the two targets. In addition, the algorithm does not take into account terrain slope information, thereby resulting in a lower filtering accuracy of the algorithm.

In the embodiment, reference data (15 sample data are accurately classified into ground points and non-ground points) provided by the ISPRS is adopted as standard data to evaluate the algorithm precision.
In this embodiment, defining original airborne LIDAR point cloud data P = { P = { (P) } i (x i ,y i ,z i ) I =1, \ 8230;, n }, where i is an index of the original airborne LIDAR point cloud data, n is the number of the original airborne LIDAR point cloud data, p i Is the ith original airborne LIDAR point cloud data with coordinates of (x) i ,y i ,z i )。
And 2, step: regularizing an original airborne LIDAR point cloud data set into a gray voxel model, as shown in fig. 3, the specific method is as follows:
step 2.1: and rejecting abnormal data from the original airborne LIDAR point cloud data set to obtain a rejected abnormal data set.
Step 2.1.1: counting the frequency of each laser point elevation value in the original airborne LIDAR point cloud data set, and displaying the counting result in a histogram mode in a visualized manner;
step 2.1.2: determining the highest elevation threshold T corresponding to the real terrain and ground features he And a minimum elevation threshold T le
Step 2.1.3: aiming at each laser point in the original airborne LIDAR point cloud data set, if the elevation value is higher than the highest elevation threshold value T he Or below a minimum elevation threshold T le If the laser point is the elevation abnormal data, removing, otherwise, keeping the laser point to obtain a removed elevation abnormal data set;
step 2.1.4: counting and eliminating the frequency of the intensity value of each laser point in the elevation abnormal data set, and displaying the counting result in a histogram mode in a visualized manner;
step 2.1.5: determining a maximum intensity threshold T corresponding to real terrain and terrain hi And a minimum intensity threshold T li
Step 2.1.6: aiming at each laser point in the removed elevation abnormal data set, if the intensity value is higher than the highest intensity threshold value T hi Or below the lowestIntensity threshold T hi And if not, the laser point is reserved, and finally a data set with the abnormal elimination elevation and intensity is obtained.
In this embodiment, the maximum elevation threshold T he Minimum elevation threshold T le Maximum intensity threshold T hi And a minimum intensity threshold T li The values of all the points are constants, and the values are determined according to the spatial distribution condition of the original airborne LIDAR point cloud data.
In this embodiment, the removed abnormal data set is denoted as Q = { Q = i′ (x i′ ,y i′ ,z i′ ) I '=1, \ 8230;, t }, where i' is the index of the laser spot in the rejected abnormal data set, t is the number of laser spots in the rejected abnormal data set, q i′ The ith 'laser point in the abnormal data set is removed, and the coordinate of the ith' laser point is (x) i′ ,y i′ ,z i′ )。
Step 2.2: and regularizing the abnormal data eliminating set into a gray voxel model.
Step 2.2.1: the spatial extent of the dataset is represented by the axially parallel bounding box that culls the outlier dataset.
In this embodiment, the spatial range of the abnormal data set Q to be removed may be determined by an axial parallel Bounding Box (Axis-Aligned Bounding Box, AABB), AABB = { (x, y, z) | x min ≤x≤x max ,y min ≤y≤y max ,z min ≤z≤z max In the formula (x) max ,y max ,z max ) And (x) min ,y min ,z min ) Representing the maximum and minimum values of the x, y and z coordinates in the culled outlier dataset, respectively.
Step 2.2.2: and calculating the resolution of the volume element, namely the size of the volume element, wherein the resolution in the directions of x, y and z is determined according to the average point distance of the laser points in the abnormal data set.
In the present embodiment, the formula for calculating the resolutions Δ x, Δ y, and Δ z of voxels in the x, y, and z directions is as shown in formula (1):
Figure BDA0001942880520000061
wherein S is xy ={(x i′ ,y i′ ),i′=1,…,t}Sxz={(x i′ ,z i′ ),i′=1,…,t}、S yz ={(y i′ ,z i′ ) I' =1, \ 8230;, t } are two-dimensional point sets obtained by eliminating the projection of the abnormal data set Q on the XOY, XOZ and YOZ planes respectively, C (·) is the convex hull of the corresponding point set, and a (·) is the area of the corresponding convex hull, as shown in fig. 4.
Step 2.2.3: and dividing the axial parallel bounding boxes according to the resolution ratios in the x direction, the y direction and the z direction to obtain three-dimensional grids, wherein each three-dimensional grid unit is called a voxel.
In this embodiment, the axially parallel bounding box may be divided into three-dimensional grids based on the voxel resolutions (Δ x, Δ y, Δ z), which may be represented by a three-dimensional voxel matrix. Let V be the voxel set in the three-dimensional voxel matrix, as shown in equation (2):
V={v j (r j ,c j ,l j ),j=1,…,m} (2)
where j is the voxel index; m is the voxel number; v. of j Is the voxel value of the jth voxel; (r) j ,c j ,l j ) Is the coordinate of the jth voxel in the voxel array, r j ,c j ,l j Respectively the row, column and layer number of the coordinates.
Step 2.2.4: mapping each laser point in the abnormal data set to a three-dimensional grid, assigning values to each voxel according to the intensity attribute of the laser points contained in the voxel, and discretizing the values of each voxel to {0, \ 8230;, 255}, thereby obtaining a gray voxel model;
in this embodiment, each laser point in the abnormal data set Q is mapped to a 3D grid, and then each voxel is assigned a value according to the intensity attribute of the laser point contained in the voxel. Wherein, the voxel containing the laser points is assigned as the laser point intensity value (if a plurality of laser points are contained, the intensity value of the laser point with the lowest elevation is assigned), the voxel not containing the laser points is assigned as 0, and the assignment of each voxel is further discretized to {0, \8230;, 255}, so as to obtain the value of each voxel. Therefore, a gray voxel model is obtained, and regularization of abnormal data set elimination is completed.
And step 3: and (3) detecting the ground voxel in the gray voxel model based on a three-dimensional connected region construction theory, wherein the specific flow is shown in fig. 5.
Step 3.1: based on the local elevation minimum characteristic of the ground point, taking the voxel with the lowest non-0 value in the gray voxel model as a seed voxel set V s Wherein s =1,2.
Step 3.1.1: and in the horizontal direction, the gray voxel model is partitioned by using the set grid size, and the voxel with the lowest elevation in each block and a non-0 value is taken as a seed voxel.
In this embodiment, the size of the mesh needs to be determined according to the complexity of the terrain, and if the terrain is more complex, the value of the mesh size is smaller, otherwise, the mesh size can be appropriately increased. However, the minimum mesh size cannot be smaller than the size of the largest target structure (e.g., building) in the original airborne LIDAR point cloud dataset, otherwise points inside the largest structure would be misinterpreted as ground seed voxels.
Step 3.1.2: searching in each block for height difference smaller than height difference threshold T e The non-0 value voxel is a ground seed, and an encrypted ground seed set V is obtained s Wherein s =1,2.;
in this embodiment, the height difference threshold T e The value of the constant is determined according to the spatial distribution condition of the original airborne LIDAR point cloud data.
Step 3.2: marking a ground seed voxel and a three-dimensional connected region formed by voxels which are three-dimensionally connected with the ground seed voxel and have similar gradient and gray level as a ground body metadata set, and finishing airborne LIDAR three-dimensional filtering based on a gray level voxel model;
step 3.2.1: calculating a frequency histogram of gray values of voxels of non-0 values in the gray voxel Model, fitting the frequency histogram with a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), and determining a gray value distribution range corresponding to the ground target.
In the present embodiment of the present invention,taking sample samp41 as an example, the frequency of the gray value of the non-0 value voxel in its corresponding V is counted and displayed in the form of a histogram, as shown in fig. 6. As can be seen from fig. 6, the gray scale distribution therein exhibits multimodality. If the multimodal distribution is assumed to be normal multimodal, the histogram in fig. 1 can be fitted with a gaussian mixture model to obtain distribution characteristic parameters (mean, standard deviation) of each gaussian distribution. The object of the invention is to filter the ground voxels, so that the distribution characteristic parameters mu, sigma and the distribution range [0, 20 ] of the Gaussian distribution corresponding to the ground]Is used for determining the gray scale range of the ground target, and the detailed scheme is as follows: diameter of order of μm l ×σ=0,μ+m r X σ =20, m can be determined l And m r From this, the gray scale range of the ground target, i.e., [ mu ] -m σ, mu + m σ, can be determined]Wherein the multiplier m = max { m } l ,m r Get m from m l And m r Is determined based on the symmetry of the gaussian distribution. In addition, it should be noted that if there is a negative number in the grayscale range, the minimum value is set to 0 but 0 is not included.
Step 3.2.2: for any ground seed volume element V s Traversing the voxel V of the gray voxel model and the current ground seed voxel s Three-dimensional communication, the gray value is located in the gray range corresponding to the ground target, and the local terrain gradient is smaller than the gradient threshold value T s All unlabeled voxels of (1), and labeled L g Until all ground seed voxels V have been marked s A three-dimensional connected region of (a), a ground voxel set; the gradient threshold value is determined in a self-adaptive mode, and the specific method comprises the following steps: for the current seed voxel V s Detecting whether the space neighborhood contains marked ground voxels, if so, determining the maximum gradient value among the marked ground voxels as a terrain gradient threshold value T in the neighborhood s (ii) a Otherwise, the terrain slope threshold is set to 90 °.
In this embodiment, depth-first traversal of any seed voxel V in the grayscale voxel model s The specific method of three-dimensional connected regions of (2) is shown in fig. 7.
In this embodiment, based on V s And marked ground in its spatial vicinityThe formula of the voxel calculation gradient E is shown in formula (3):
Figure BDA0001942880520000081
wherein (r) p ,c p ,l p ) Is a V s Coordinates; (r) e ,c e ,l e ) And t is the marked ground voxel coordinate in the spatial neighborhood.
In this embodiment, different filtering results may be obtained by applying different neighborhood sizes in the above marking process. The best neighborhood scale will be determined experimentally.
The ground data obtained by the filtering method proposed by the invention is expressed by voxels, while the reference data is in the form of discrete LIDAR laser points. In order to compare with reference data and further evaluate the accuracy of the method provided by the invention, in this embodiment, firstly, laser points in ground voxels detected by the method are counted, then, the laser points are compared with the reference data, and then, the accuracy of the filtering algorithm is quantitatively evaluated by indexes such as type I errors (dividing ground point errors into non-ground point proportions), type II errors (dividing non-ground point errors into ground point proportions), total errors (dividing laser point proportions by errors) and Kappa coefficients.
In this embodiment, when the neighborhood dimensions are 6, 18, 26, 51, 56, and 64, respectively, the method of the present invention is applied to filter 15 test data, and Kappa coefficients of corresponding filtering results are shown in table 2. The data in this table is intended to examine the effect of different domain sizes on the accuracy of the filtering results and thus determine the optimal neighborhood size.
TABLE 2 Kappa coefficient of filtering methods for different neighborhood sizes
Figure BDA0001942880520000082
Figure BDA0001942880520000091
As can be seen from table 2, the average Kappa coefficients in the neighborhood of 6, 18, 26, 51, 56 and 64 are 71.64%, 78.73%, 80.81%, 84.34%, 83.29% and 83.28%, respectively. This indicates that: (1) The 51 neighborhood corresponds to the largest Kappa coefficient, and thus the 51 neighborhood is the best neighborhood size from the Kappa coefficient index. (2) An increase in the size of the neighborhood does not imply a necessary improvement in the filtering accuracy. This is because: information of the ground object may be propagated through connectivity, gray scale, and terrain slope strength similarities defined in the gray scale three-dimensional voxel data set. Taking the 6 neighborhoods as an example, the information of the ground object can only be propagated to the 6 voxels above, below, left, right, front and back thereof, thereby causing the seed voxel to be propagated only to the flat terrain around the seed voxel. If the neighborhood size can be increased, such as 26 neighborhoods, the increased propagation direction compared to 6 neighborhoods may include more ground voxels, thereby improving the accuracy of the filtering. This may explain why the Kappa coefficient for the filtering algorithm for the 26 neighborhood versus the 6 neighborhood is higher. However, if the neighborhood scale is too large, some non-ground voxels may be misclassified as ground voxels, resulting in a reduction in filtering accuracy. This may explain why the accuracy of the 56 neighborhood versus the 51 neighborhood is instead degraded.
In this embodiment, the method of the present invention is applied to perform quantitative evaluation on the filtering precision of 15 sample data in the neighborhood size of 51 using the reference data as a standard, and the precision of the filtering result is shown in table 3.
