However, the spectral characteristics of fog at dawn and dusk are similar to those of the ground surface, which makes satellite-based fog detection difficult. With the aid of time-series datasets from the Himawari-8 (H8)\/AHI, this study proposed a novel algorithm of the self-adaptive threshold of visual background extractor (ST-ViBe) model for satellite fog detection at dawn and dusk. Methodologically, the background model was first built using the difference between MIR and TIR (BTD) and the local binary similarity patterns (LBSP) operator. Second, BTD and scale invariant local ternary pattern (SILTP) texture features were coupled to form scene factors, and the detection threshold of each pixel was determined adaptively to eliminate the influence of the solar zenith angles. The background model was updated rapidly by accelerating the updating rate and increasing the updating quantity. Finally, the residual clouds were removed with the traditional cloud removal method to achieve accurate detection of fog at dawn and dusk over a large area. The validation results demonstrated that the ST-ViBe algorithm could detect fog at dawn and dusk precisely, and on a large scale. The probability of detection, false alarm ratio, and critical success index were 72.5%, 18.5%, 62.4% at dawn (8:00) and 70.6%, 33.6%, 52.3% at dusk (17:00), respectively. Meanwhile, the algorithm mitigated the limitations of the traditional algorithms, such as illumination mutation, missing detection, and residual shadow. The results of this study could guide satellite fog detection at dawn and dusk and improve the detection of similar targets.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs15092331","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,28]],"date-time":"2023-04-28T09:54:53Z","timestamp":1682675693000},"page":"2331","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["A Novel ST-ViBe Algorithm for Satellite Fog Detection at Dawn and Dusk"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Huiyun","family":"Ma","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geosciences and Info-Physics, Central South University, Changsha 410083, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zengwei","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geosciences and Info-Physics, Central South University, Changsha 410083, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kun","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geosciences and Info-Physics, Central South University, Changsha 410083, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bingbo","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"PowerChina Zhongnan Engineering Corporation Limited, Changsha 410014, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1535-9940","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Huihui","family":"Feng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geosciences and Info-Physics, Central South University, Changsha 410083, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7496-1566","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shuaifeng","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geosciences and Info-Physics, Central South University, Changsha 410083, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"483","DOI":"10.1002\/met.248","article-title":"Night Time Fog Detection Using MODIS Data over Northern India","volume":"18","author":"Chaurasia","year":"2011","journal-title":"Meteorol.
