Abstract: In this work, we propose a new loss to improve feature discriminability and classification performance. Motivated by the adaptive cosine/coherence estimator [42] (ACE), our proposed method incorporates angular information that is inherently learned by artificial neural networks. Our learnable… Read More

Data Science Competition For Cross-Site Delineation And Classification Of Individual Trees From Airborne Remote Sensing Data
Abstract: Delineating and classifying individual trees in remote sensing data is challenging. Many tree crown delineation methods have difficulty in closed-canopy forests and do not leverage multiple datasets. Methods to classify individual species are often accurate for common species, but… Read More
