Hohai University Hohai University Hohai University is a state key university under the direct jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education of China. Its history can be traced back to Hohai Civil Engineering School, founded in 1915, and was the first institution focusing on research and education of water resources in China. Now it has become one of the universities on China’s state “Project 211” (China’s goal of building the best 100 universities in China in the 21st century) and one of the 56 universities in China with graduate schools. Hohai University has three campuses, covering a total area of 132 hectares. The University consists of 17 colleges and schools, one state key research center, one state key laboratory, 14 key laboratories and engineering research centers at the ministerial or provincial level. The specialties and disciplines in the field of hydrology and water resources, hydraulic and hydropower engineering, and civil engineering are among the strongest in China, with the discipline of hydraulic engineering the best in China. The faculty and graduates of Hohai University have been extensively and heavily involved in the research, design, construction, and management of some of the worldwide-known engineering projects such as the “Three Gorges Dam Project” and the “South-to-North Water Transfer Project”. Hohai University has a student population of over 33,000, including over 9,000 graduate students and more than 20,000 undergraduate students. There are over 3,000 staff members, among whom there are one full-time academician on the Chinese Academy of Engineering, 13 adjunct academicians, and more than 900 professors and associate professors. More than 200 professors are qualified to supervise Ph.D students. Internationalization has always been one of the most important strategies of Hohai University. Hohai has developed extensive international exchange and cooperation with partners around the world. In addition, Hohai is one of the first universities in China approved by the State Council to confer Doctor's, Master's and Bachelor's degrees to international students. .

    This article has been accepted for inclusion in a future issue of this journal. Content is final as presented, with the exception of pagination. IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON GEOSCIENCE AND REMOTE SENSING 1 Time Series Phase Unwrapping Based on Graph Theory and Compressed Sensing Zhang-Feng Ma , Student Member, IEEE,MiJiang , Senior Member, IEEE, Mostafa Khoshmanesh, and Xiao Cheng Abstract— Time Series SAR interferometry (InSAR) interferogram, in which the observations are known modulo- (TS-InSAR) has been widely applied to monitor the crustal 2π [1]–[3]. The main challenge of PU is that it is extremely deformation with centimeter- to millimeter-level accuracy. Phase difficult to, first, distinguish which pixel contains phase cycles, unwrapping (PU) errors have proven to be one of the main sources of bias that hinder achieving such high accuracy. In this and second, how many the cycles are. A certain phase article, a new time series PU approach is developed to improve continuity assumption that the local phase gradient between the unwrapping accuracy. The rationale behind the proposed neighboring points should be smooth and less than π makes method is to first improve the sparse unwrapping by mitigating this problem tractable. the phase gradients in a 2-D network and then correcting the Based on this assumption, Lp-Norm [4] methods such as unwrapping errors in time, based on the triplet phase closure. Rather than the commonly used Delaunay network, we employ least squares, minimum cost flow (MCF) [5], and minimum the all-pairs-shortest-path (APSP) algorithm from graph theory discontinuity [6] attempt to unwrap phases by shrinking the to maximize the temporal coherence of all edges and to approach Euclidean distances or minimizing the difference between the the phase continuity assumption in the 2-D spatial domain.
