Meta-learning to address diverse Earth observation problems across resolutions

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger, Marc Conrad Russwurm

Earth scientists study a variety of problems with remote sensing data, but they most often consider them in isolation from each other, which limits information flows across disciplines. In this work, we present METEOR, a meta-learning methodology for Earth ...

MultiMAE: Multi-modal Multi-task Masked Autoencoders

Amir Roshan Zamir, Roman Christian Bachmann, Andrei Atanov, David Mizrahi

We propose a pre-training strategy called Multi-modal Multi-task Masked Autoencoders (MultiMAE). It differs from standard Masked Autoencoding in two key aspects: I) it can optionally accept additional modalities of information in the input besides the RGB ...
