Congratulations to our labmate, Kevin Naughton, for accepting a Software Engineering position at Google! Kevin will be starting at Google this Fall in Mountain View, CA. Enjoy Silicon Valley, Kevin!

Headwall Photonics and the University of Florida recently hosted a  free hyperspectral webinar.  During the webinar, Headwall representatives as well as current UF students and postdoctoral researchers discussed how hyperspectral imaging  (HSI) technologies are providing new insights into the plant sciences.  In case you missed the seminar — don’t worry.  Headwall recorded the talks and […]

Abstract: High-resolution cameras have become very helpful for plant phenotyping by providing a mechanism for tasks such as target versus background discrimination, and the measurement and analysis of fine-above-ground plant attributes. However, the acquisition of high-resolution (HR) imagery of plant roots is more challenging than above-ground data collection. Thus, an effective super-resolution (SR) algorithm is […]

While current circumstances have hindered our ability to meet together physically, the MLSL hasn’t slowed down. But it’s not all work without play.  Lab members are meeting over Zoom to talk, play games and support each other during these uncertain times.  We are all stronger together!

Congratulations to GatorSense alumna, Xiaoxiao Du!  Her paper, titled “Multi-resolution Multi-modal Sensor Fusion For Remote Sensing Data with Label Uncertainty”, was recently published in IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing.   Check it out here!

Members of the Machine Learning and Sensing Lab recently tuned in to a webinar hosted by Headwall Photonics and the University of Florida.  During the webinar, Headwall representatives discussed hyperspectral imaging  (HSI) technologies and  gave a crash course on data collection and material classification with HSI.  Current UF students and postdoctoral researchers presented on their […]

Congratulations to our labmate, Dr. Susan Meerdink, for accepting an assistant professor position at the University of Iowa in Iowa City! Susan will be continuing her research endeavors in the Department of Geographical and Sustainability Sciences beginning August 2020. We will be following her great work and encourage everyone to do the same.  Check out […]

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. […]

Our labmate and MLSL post-doctoral researcher, Dr. Susan Meerdink, recently presented at the Phenome 2020 in Tucson, AZ! The purpose of Phenome is to bring together a diverse community of researchers to enable collaboration, emphasizing data collection and organization, as well as data processing and the computational and statistical frameworks needed to understand complex biological […]
