Join us on March 24th for a FREE ONLINE webinar hosted by Headwall and the University of Florida!  This webinar is an all-day event which will focus on “Recent and Ongoing Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Forestry and Plant Research”.  Also, our very own Dr. Susan Meerdink will be presenting on Multi-Target Multiple Instance Learning for Hyperspectral […]

Abstract: In remote sensing, it is often challenging to acquire or collect a large dataset that is accurately labeled. This difficulty is usually due to several issues, including but not limited to the study site’s spatial area and accessibility, errors in the global positioning system (GPS), and mixed pixels caused by an image’s spatial resolution.
