Improved marine debris detection in satellite imagery with automatic refinement of coarse hand annotations

Elif Dilge Gül, Devis Tuia, Marc Conrad Russwurm

Plastic litter is a major environmental hazard that endangers human, animal, and plant health on the planet. A substantial portion of plastic pollutants is washed from rivers and beaches into the oceans and aggregates at the surface as marine debris before ...

Explicit Recursive and Adaptive Filtering in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces

Devis Tuia

This brief presents a methodology to develop recursive filters in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Unlike previous approaches that exploit the kernel trick on filtered and then mapped samples, we explicitly define the model recursivity in the Hilbert spa ...

Humans are Poor Few-Shot Classifiers for Sentinel-2 Land Cover

Devis Tuia, Marc Conrad Russwurm

Learning to predict accurately from a few data samples is a central challenge in modern data-hungry machine learning. On natural images, human vision typically outperforms deep learning approaches on few-shot learning. However, we hypothesize that aerial a ...

Classification of urban multi-angular image sequences by aligning their manifolds

Devis Tuia

When dealing with multi-angular image sequences, problems of reflectance changes due either to illumination and acquisition geometry, or to interactions with the atmosphere, naturally arise. These phenomena interplay with the scene and lead to a modificati ...

Semi-supervised multiview embedding for hyperspectral data classification

Devis Tuia, Giona Matasci

In this paper, a method for semi-supervised multiview feature extraction based on the multiset regularized kernel canonical correlation analysis (kCCA) is proposed for the classification of hyperspectral images. The covariance matrix of this type of data i ...

Revisiting Evaluation Metrics for Semantic Segmentation: Optimization and Evaluation of Fine-grained Intersection over Union

Devis Tuia

Semantic segmentation datasets often exhibit two types of imbalance: \textit{class imbalance}, where some classes appear more frequently than others and \textit{size imbalance}, where some objects occupy more pixels than others. This causes traditional eva ...

ConGeo: Robust Cross-View Geo-Localization Across Ground View Variations

Devis Tuia, Antoine Bosselut, Javiera Francisca Castillo Navarro, Syrielle Mathilde Marie Montariol, Li Mi

Cross-view geo-localization aims at localizing a ground-level query image by matching it to its corresponding geo-referenced aerial view. In real-world scenarios, the task requires accommodating diverse ground images captured by users with varying orientat ...

Combining Human Computing and Machine Learning to Make Sense of Big (Aerial) Data for Disaster Response

Devis Tuia, Stéphane Joost, Matthew Josef Parkan

Aerial imagery captured via unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is playing an increasingly important role in disaster response. Unlike satellite imagery, aerial imagery can be captured and processed within hours rather than days. In addition, the spatial resol ...

Self-Supervised Underwater Caustics Removal and Descattering via Deep Monocular SLAM

Devis Tuia, Jonathan Paul Sauder

Underwater scenes are challenging for computer vision methods due to color degradation caused by the water column and detrimental lighting effects such as caustic caused by sunlight refracting on a wavy surface. These challenges impede widespread use of co ...
