Ensemble Learning for Urban Flood Segmentation Through the Fusion of Multi-Spectral Satellite Data with Water Spectral Indices Using Row-Wise Cross Attention by Han Xu, Alan Woodley

“…However, relying solely on spectral indices can lead these models to overlook crucial urban contextual features, making it difficult to distinguish inundated areas from other similar features like shadows or wet roads. To address this, our research explores a novel approach to improve flood segmentation by integrating a row-wise cross attention (CA) module with ML ensemble learning. …”

Robust Identification of Vegetation Change Using Shapelet-Based Temporal Segmentation of Landsat Time-Series Stacks: A Case Study in the Qilian Mountains by Lipeng Jiao, Randolph H. Wynne

“…A temporal sliding window-based anomaly checking procedure is applied to the annual maximum composite of spectral vegetation indices in the growing season to remove the unmasked clouds, cloud shadows, and other temporary changes. Then, an iterative shapelet searching algorithm is performed on each given time series trajectory to filter out all atypical subseries. …”

Airborne lidar intensity correction for mapping snow cover extent and effective grain size in mountainous terrain by Chelsea Ackroyd, Christopher P. Donahue, Brian Menounos, S. McKenzie Skiles

“…Relative to the traditional snow classification derived from optical imagery, the lidar-derived snow extent covered 5.4% more area due to the fine resolution point cloud and absence of shadows common in optical imagery. The lidar-derived grain size retrievals had a MAE of 32 µm compared to those from field spectroscopy, which translated to a 1% error in snow albedo. …”
