• Abstract: This communication describes a preliminary research on detection of big masses of plastic (marine litter) on the oceans and seas using EO (Earth Observation) satellite systems. Free images from the Sentinel 2 (Copernicus Project) platform are used. To develop a plastic recognizer, we start with an image where we can find a big accumulation of "nonfloating" plastic: Almer\'ia greenhouses. We made a test using remote sensing differential indexes, but we got much better results using all available wavelengths (thirteen frequency bands) and applying Neural Networks to that feature vector.

  This paper seeks transferable prior knowledge from detector-friendly images. It is based on statistical observations that, the heavily degraded regions of detector-friendly (DFUI) and underwater images have evident feature distribution gaps. Our method with higher speeds and less parameters still performs better than transformer-based detectors.

  We present a novel framework for localizing a ground vehicle mounted with a range sensor against satellite imagery in the absence of GPS. We propose a method using convolutional transformers that performs accurate metric-level localization in a cross-modal manner. We train our model end-to-end and demonstrate our approach achieving higher accuracy than the state-of-the-art on KITTI, Pandaset, and a custom dataset.

• Deep Learning Models for River Classification at Sub-Meter Resolutions from Multispectral and Panchromatic Commercial Satellite Imagery [2.121978045345352]
  This study focuses on rivers in the Arctic, using images from the Quickbird, WorldView, and GeoEye satellites. We use the RGB, and NIR bands of the 8-band multispectral sensors. Those trained models all achieve excellent precision and recall over 90% on validation data, aided by on-the-fly preprocessing of the training data specific to satellite imagery. In a novel approach, we then use results from the multispectral model to generate training data for FCN that only require panchromatic imagery, of which considerably more is available.

  We show that a Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) representation of a scene can be used to train dense object descriptors. We use an optimized NeRF to extract dense correspondences between multiple views of an object, and then use these correspondences as training data for learning a view-invariant representation of the object. Dense correspondence models supervised with our method significantly outperform off-the-shelf learned descriptors by 106%.
