Köppen’s scheme to classify world climates was devised in 1918 by Dr Wladimir Köppen of the University of Graz in Austria (Köppen 1931, Köppen and Geiger 1928, Köppen and Geiger 1930-39). ... The Köppen classification ... recognises five principal groups of world climates that are intended to correspond with five principal vegetation groups.

Des classifications des climats du globe ont été établies notamment par les Allemands Wladimir Köppen et Carl Troll et par l'Américain Charles Warren Thornthwaite. La plus ancienne, et la plus universellement reconnue, est celle du géographe allemand W. Köppen, publiée pour la première fois en 1901 et plusieurs fois remaniée par l'auteur (jusqu'en 1931), puis par ses successeurs. [...] Le but initial de la classification de Köppen était de rendre compte des principaux groupes de végétation naturelle. Elle comprend cinq groupes principaux [tropical humide, sec, tempéré, subarctique et polaire], chacun étant lui-même subdivisé en sous-classes (ou types climatiques). La délimitation de chaque groupe correspond à la satisfaction d'un critère de caractérisation, soit purement thermique, soit correspondant à une combinaison de la température de l'air et de la pluviométrie. 4, record 4, French, - classification%20climatique%20de%20K%C3%B6ppen

Hierarchical classification. Classifiers utilizing hierarchical, or sequential, architectures generally perform well for remote sensing applications. Typically, when discriminating land cover types, there is a benefit to separating the data into general groupings rather than specific classes, as well as to removing those classes which are easily separable from the rest. This multiscale framework in terms of class separability reduces the complexity of the classifier, both in terms of training and decision making. This is because the classifier does not need to distinguish between all classes, just one class(or a few) from the rest. By employing a hierarchical classifier, different inputs can be used at each level of the overall classification process depending on the classes to be discriminated. This then allows for a possible reduction in the number of inputs, or for the use of class specific data such as topography, at a given level. The described benefits of a hierarchical architecture generally lead to an increase in classification accuracy.... A hierarchical version of the above MRF-based classifier was developed to account for the class dependent variation in backscatter associated with changes in incidence angle. A methodology for "correcting" SAR data according to class-specific models is described and is then presented as the first level in the architecture of the hierarchical classifier. 3, record 5, English, - hierarchical%20classification
