The book is devoted to the development of computer vision systems, the main task of which is the thematic decoding of aerial photography and satellite images taken in the visible and infrared wavelengths. As the main decryption tool, the authors propose to use models and algorithms of artificial intelligence theory and machine learning theory. Much attention is paid to the construction and training of neural network classifiers based on direct propagation neural networks without feedbacks. For specialists, it can be useful for graduate students and students of relevant specialties.
