Estimation of soil parameters over bare agriculture areas from C-band polarimetric SAR data using neural networks

The purpose of this study was to develop an approach to estimate soil surface parameters from C-band polarimetric SAR data in the case of bare agricultural soils. An inversion technique based on multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural networks was introduced. The neural networks were trained and validat...
