Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of forest carbon stock estimation, in particular to a forest carbon stock estimation method based on artificial intelligence and multimodal remote sensing data. Background Art

[0002] In the study of global carbon cycle and climate change response, forest carbon storage is one of the key indicators of the study. The remote sensing technology used provides the main data support for large-scale forest carbon storage estimation. Different remote sensing technologies can capture forest information from different angles, such as optical satellite images and LiDAR.

[0003] Most of the current forest carbon stock estimation methods use one of the above-mentioned remote sensing technologies as a means of information capture. Among them, optical satellite images are widely used to estimate forest coverage, but they are not sensitive enough to information such as tree height and crown structure. Although LiDAR can provide detailed three-dimensional forest structure data, it can only cover part of the area and is restricted by weather conditions. The single data source collection leads to insufficient accuracy of the estimation results. In addition, different types of forests, such as tropical rainforests, coniferous forests, and broad-leaved forests, also have significant differences in carbon storage and biomass distribution. In order to ensure the accuracy of carbon stock estimation, it is necessary to accurately classify forest types. However, the current forest classification method still uses manual division or predefined classification, which has low classification efficiency and strong subjectivity.

[0004] To address the problem of single data source, most existing estimation methods use a fusion of multiple data sources to solve the problem, such as linear regression and principal component analysis. However, such methods require a linear relationship between different data sources and cannot effectively handle nonlinear correlations between data. In addition, there are significant differences in data formats, temporal resolution, and spatial resolutions of different remote sensing technologies. It is difficult to effectively coordinate the differences during data fusion, which can easily lead to data mismatch. In terms of forest type classification, most existing estimation methods use remote sensing technology and regional empirical models to classify forest types, but they rely too much on optical images. The optical images obtained by remote sensing technology cannot guarantee clarity, which makes it difficult to classify forest types in a fine-grained manner. Some vegetation types are very similar in optical images, and insufficient classification accuracy will directly affect the zoning results of carbon stock estimation. In addition, when regional empirical models are applied to new geographical regions or climatic conditions, their accuracy is not good, and the model must be re-optimized. Cross-regional application is very difficult. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a forest carbon stock estimation method based on artificial intelligence and multimodal remote sensing data to solve such problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above existing problems, the present invention is proposed.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention provides a forest carbon stock estimation method based on artificial intelligence and multimodal remote sensing data to solve the problem that the principal component analysis and regression model fusion in the existing solutions can only capture the linear relationship between data sources, ignoring the nonlinear characteristics of forest structure and dynamic changes. The more complex the remote sensing data, the greater the limitations of such methods, and the empirical forest classification method is difficult to adapt to the forest types and climatic conditions in different regions.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0024] Furthermore, remote sensing data fusion is performed in step S2:

[0025] The features of each modality are fused and reduced in dimension using an autoencoder, and the features of each modality are concatenated and expressed as:

[0026]

[0027] Then the autoencoder is used to reduce the dimension and extract the fusion features:

[0036] Among them, F attention (i, j) represents the eigenvalue of the feature map at position (i, j), F pooled ∈R D represents the feature vector after pooling, retaining the global information of each channel and used as the input of the classifier. H′, W′ represents the spatial size of the feature map, and D represents the number of channels of the feature map.

[0037] Use support vector machine for classification and construct optimization objectives:

[0040] Furthermore, the method of classifying forest types in step S3 also includes:

[0041] The loss function is defined as: Among them, L represents the cross entropy loss value, y i,c represents the true label of sample i, using onehot encoding. Represents the predicted probability that the classifier belongs to category c for sample i, and uses the gradient descent method to update the classifier parameters: Among them, θ represents the parameters of the classifier, including w, b, η represents the learning rate, and controls the update step size. Represents the gradient of the loss function L with respect to the parameter θ. After the training is completed, the new test data feature F is input pooled , use the trained classifier to predict forest type

[0042] In step S3, the feature F extracted in step S2 is used pooled ,The features are vectorized by global average pooling, and then the ,support vector machine is used to build a classification model to classify the forest types. ,During the training process, the cross entropy loss function is used, and the ,parameters of the classifier are optimized by gradient descent.

[0043] Furthermore, the carbon storage estimation model in step S4 is constructed as follows:

[0044] A carbon storage estimation model is designed for each forest type T, and the carbon storage is expressed as:

[0045] C T =β T ·B T , where C T is the total carbon stock of forest type T, β T is the carbon conversion coefficient, which indicates the conversion ratio between forest biomass and carbon storage, B T is the biomass of forest type T;

[0047] The biomass estimation formula is adjusted according to the tree species characteristics of different forest types. T ,b T ,c T It has forest type dependency;

[0048] After the forest type classification, the entire forest area is divided into multiple sub-areas according to different types. Assume that the total forest area is divided into N sub-areas, and the forest type of each sub-area i is T i , its carbon storage C i The estimation formula is:

[0049] Among them, C i is the carbon stock of the ith subregion, is the forest type T to which the sub-area belongs i The associated carbon conversion factor, is the forest type T of the sub-area i The biomass per unit area,

[0050] A i is the area of ​​the sub-region;

[0051] Sum the carbon stocks of all sub-regions: Among them, C total is the total carbon storage of the entire forest area, C i is the carbon stock of the ith sub-region; for different types of forests, a carbon stock estimation model is constructed based on the biomass estimation formula. The biomass and carbon conversion coefficient of the forest type are calculated region by region, and the carbon stock is estimated region by region based on the regional area. Then, the carbon stock of all sub-regions is accumulated to obtain the total carbon stock of the entire forest area.

[0052] Furthermore, in step S5, the method of predicting the dynamic carbon storage change is:

[0053] The carbon storage C is modeled using a first-order differential equation i (t) Changes in time t:

[0054] Among them, C i (t) is the carbon storage of the ith sub-region at time t, is the carbon storage growth rate of the ith region, L i (t) is the carbon loss of the ith region at time t, represents the rate of change of carbon storage in the ith region over time t;

When the biomass approaches the maximum value, the growth rate tends to zero.

[0056] Furthermore, in step S5, the method of predicting the dynamic carbon storage change also includes:

For N sub-areas, the change of total carbon storage over time t is: Among them, C total (t) is the carbon storage of the entire forest area at time t, C i (t) is the carbon stock of the ith region at time t;

[0064] The dynamic changes of total carbon storage in the entire forest area over time were obtained by estimating area by area.

[0065] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0066] The present invention integrates optical satellite imagery, lidar data and hyperspectral imagery remote sensing data, making full use of the complementarity of different data sources. Optical images provide spatial resolution information, lidar data captures the vertical structure of the forest, and hyperspectral images reflect the spectral characteristics of different forest types. Through multi-source data fusion, the comprehensiveness and estimation accuracy of the data are greatly improved, which can more accurately reflect the forest coverage, vertical structure and biodiversity, and overcome the limitations of a single data source.

[0067] The present invention introduces an attention mechanism that can adaptively focus on key features related to carbon stock estimation, which not only improves the accuracy of feature extraction, but also avoids the interference of redundant information on the results through data dimensionality reduction, thereby further improving the estimation accuracy.

[0068] The present invention divides the entire forest area into multiple sub-areas, and constructs a carbon stock estimation model based on the forest type of each sub-area. The carbon stock estimation of different regions is refined by estimating area by area, and the characteristics of different forest types are accurately reflected. Specific biomass models and carbon conversion coefficients are constructed for different types of forests, such as coniferous forests, broad-leaved forests and tropical rainforests, respectively, thereby improving the accuracy and regional adaptability of carbon stock estimation.
