Title: Debiased Learning for Remote Sensing Data
Authors: Chun-Hsiao Yeh, Xudong Wang, Stella X. Yu, Charles Hill, Zackery Steck, Scott Kangas, Aaron Reite
Abstract summary: We propose a highly effective semi-supervised approach tailored specifically to remote sensing data. First, we adapt the FixMatch framework to remote sensing data by designing robust strong and weak augmentations suitable for this domain. Second, we develop an effective semi-supervised learning method by removing bias in imbalanced training data resulting from both actual labels and pseudo-labels predicted by the model.

Abstract: Deep learning has had remarkable success at analyzing handheld imagery such as consumer photos due to the availability of large-scale human annotations (e.g., ImageNet). However, remote sensing data lacks such extensive annotation and thus potential for supervised learning. To address this, we propose a highly effective semi-supervised approach tailored specifically to remote sensing data. Our approach encompasses two key contributions. First, we adapt the FixMatch framework to remote sensing data by designing robust strong and weak augmentations suitable for this domain. Second, we develop an effective semi-supervised learning method by removing bias in imbalanced training data resulting from both actual labels and pseudo-labels predicted by the model. Our simple semi-supervised framework was validated by extensive experimentation. Using 30\% of labeled annotations, it delivers a 7.1\% accuracy gain over the supervised learning baseline and a 2.1\% gain over the supervised state-of-the-art CDS method on the remote sensing xView dataset.

We develop a framework for fair semi-supervised learning, which is formulated as an optimization problem. We theoretically analyze the source of discrimination in semi-supervised learning via bias, variance and noise decomposition. Our method is able to achieve fair semi-supervised learning, and reach a better trade-off between accuracy and fairness than fair supervised learning.
