Abstract:
In recent years, the rapid development of satellite manufacturing and launch technology has allowed us to obtain a vast amount of satellite remote sensing data. However, these data have the characteristics of being large in volume, diverse in types, and highly heterogeneous, making traditional statistical-based data processing methods ineffective in handling such complex and massive data. This talk will take the example of semantic segmentation tasks for satellite remote sensing to demonstrate how the latest technologies in the field of machine learning, from Transformers to large-scale language models (LLM), can be helpful for achieving efficient semantic segmentation by exploiting the fusion of multi-modal and multi-scale information.
