Towards a Collective Agenda on AI for Earth Science Data Analysis
In the last years we have witnessed the fields of geosciences and remote sensing and artificial intelligence to become closer.
Guided Super-Resolution as Pixel-to-Pixel Transformation
Guided super-resolution is a unifying framework for several computer vision tasks where the inputs are a low-resolution source image of some target quantity (e. g., perspective depth acquired with a time-of-flight camera) and a high-resolution guide image from a different domain (e. g., a grey-scale image from a conventional camera); and the target output is a high-resolution version of the source (in our example, a high-res depth map).
Global canopy height regression and uncertainty estimation from GEDI LIDAR waveforms with deep ensembles
NASA's Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) is a key climate mission whose goal is to advance our understanding of the role of forests in the global carbon cycle.
In the light of feature distributions: moment matching for Neural Style Transfer
Style transfer aims to render the content of a given image in the graphical/artistic style of another image.
Crop mapping from image time series: deep learning with multi-scale label hierarchies
The three-level label hierarchy is encoded in a convolutional, recurrent neural network (convRNN), such that for each pixel the model predicts three labels at different level of granularity.
Classification With an Edge: Improving Semantic Image Segmentation with Boundary Detection
We present an end-to-end trainable deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) for semantic segmentation with built-in awareness of semantically meaningful boundaries.
PC2WF: 3D Wireframe Reconstruction from Raw Point Clouds
Next, the corners are linked with an exhaustive set of candidate edges, which is again pruned to obtain the final wireframe.
UnCRtainTS: Uncertainty Quantification for Cloud Removal in Optical Satellite Time Series
Clouds and haze often occlude optical satellite images, hindering continuous, dense monitoring of the Earth's surface.

Deep Active Learning in Remote Sensing for data efficient Change Detection
We investigate active learning in the context of deep neural network models for change detection and map updating.
Crop Classification under Varying Cloud Cover with Neural Ordinary Differential Equations
We propose to use neural ordinary differential equations (NODEs) in combination with RNNs to classify crop types in irregularly spaced image sequences.
FiLM-Ensemble: Probabilistic Deep Learning via Feature-wise Linear Modulation
We show that the idea can be extended to uncertainty quantification: by modulating the network activations of a single deep network with FiLM, one obtains a model ensemble with high diversity, and consequently well-calibrated estimates of epistemic uncertainty, with low computational overhead in comparison.
Learning Aerial Image Segmentation from Online Maps
We adapt a state-of-the-art CNN architecture for semantic segmentation of buildings and roads in aerial images, and compare its performance when using different training data sets, ranging from manually labeled, pixel-accurate ground truth of the same city to automatic training data derived from OpenStreetMap data from distant locations.
Gating Revisited: Deep Multi-layer RNNs That Can Be Trained
We propose a new STAckable Recurrent cell (STAR) for recurrent neural networks (RNNs), which has fewer parameters than widely used LSTM and GRU while being more robust against vanishing or exploding gradients.
Artificial Generation of Big Data for Improving Image Classification: A Generative Adversarial Network Approach on SAR Data
Very High Spatial Resolution (VHSR) large-scale SAR image databases are still an unresolved issue in the Remote Sensing field.
Neural Fields with Thermal Activations for Arbitrary-Scale Super-Resolution
We present a novel way to design neural fields such that points can be queried with an adaptive Gaussian PSF, so as to guarantee correct anti-aliasing at any desired output resolution.
Fine-grained Species Recognition with Privileged Pooling: Better Sample Efficiency Through Supervised Attention
We propose a scheme for supervised image classification that uses privileged information, in the form of keypoint annotations for the training data, to learn strong models from small and/or biased training sets.
HistoNet: Predicting size histograms of object instances
Our method results in an overall improvement in the count and size distribution prediction as compared to state-of-the-art instance segmentation method Mask R-CNN.
Towards seamless multi-view scene analysis from satellite to street-level
In this paper, we discuss and review how combined multi-view imagery from satellite to street-level can benefit scene analysis.
Topological Map Extraction from Overhead Images
We propose a new approach, named PolyMapper, to circumvent the conventional pixel-wise segmentation of (aerial) images and predict objects in a vector representation directly.
Country-wide high-resolution vegetation height mapping with Sentinel-2
Sentinel-2 multi-spectral images collected over periods of several months were used to estimate vegetation height for Gabon and Switzerland.
From Google Maps to a Fine-Grained Catalog of Street trees
We believe this is the first work to exploit publicly available image data for fine-grained tree mapping at city-scale, respectively over many thousands of trees.
Geocoding of trees from street addresses and street-level images
We introduce an approach for updating older tree inventories with geographic coordinates using street-level panorama images and a global optimization framework for tree instance matching.

Mixture of Experts with Uncertainty Voting for Imbalanced Deep Regression Problems
For regression, recent work relies on the continuity of the distribution; whereas for classification there has been a trend to employ mixture-of-expert models and let some ensemble members specialize in predictions for the sparser regions.
Point2CAD: Reverse Engineering CAD Models from 3D Point Clouds
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model reconstruction from point clouds is an important problem at the intersection of computer vision, graphics, and machine learning; it saves the designer significant time when iterating on in-the-wild objects.
Point2Building: Reconstructing Buildings from Airborne LiDAR Point Clouds
What makes 3D building reconstruction from airborne LiDAR hard is the large diversity of building designs and especially roof shapes, the low and varying point density across the scene, and the often incomplete coverage of building facades due to occlusions by vegetation or to the viewing angle of the sensor.
