Segment anything, from space?
Conference Proceedings 2024 IEEE Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision Wacv 2024 · January 3, 2024 Recently, the first foundation model developed specifically for image segmentation tasks was developed, termed the "Segment Anything Model"(SAM). SAM can segment objects in input imagery based on cheap input prompts, such as one (or more) points, a boundin ...

Journal Article IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing · January 1, 2024 Modern deep neural networks (DNNs) are highly accurate on many recognition tasks for overhead (e.g., satellite) imagery. However, visual domain shifts (e.g., statistical changes due to geography, sensor, or atmospheric conditions) remain a challenge, causi ...

Journal Article Scientific data · January 2024 Remotely sensed imagery has increased dramatically in quantity and public availability. However, automated, large-scale analysis of such imagery is hindered by a lack of the annotations necessary to train and test machine learning algorithms. In this study ...
