VistaFormer: Scalable Vision Transformers for Satellite Image Time Series Segmentation
Ezra MacDonald, Derek Jacoby, Yvonne Coady
We introduce VistaFormer, a lightweight Transformer-based model architecture for the semantic segmentation of remote-sensing images. This model uses a multi-scale Transformer-based…
Using Texture to Classify Forests Separately from Vegetation
David R. Treadwell, Derek Jacoby, Will Parkinson +2
Identifying terrain within satellite image data is a key issue in geographical information sciences, with numerous environmental and safety implications. Many techniques exist to d…
Human Latency Conversational Turns for Spoken Avatar Systems
Derek Jacoby, Tianyi Zhang, Aanchan Mohan +1
A problem with many current Large Language Model (LLM) driven spoken dialogues is the response time. Some efforts such as Groq address this issue by lightning fast processing of th…
Remote Possibilities: Where there is a WIL, is there a Way? AI Education for Remote Learners in a New Era of Work-Integrated-Learning
Derek Jacoby, Saiph Savage, Yvonne Coady
Increasing diversity in educational settings is challenging in part due to the lack of access to resources for non-traditional learners in remote communities. Post-pandemic platfor…
Intentional Biases in LLM Responses
Nicklaus Badyal, Derek Jacoby, Yvonne Coady
In this study we intentionally introduce biases into large language model responses in an attempt to create specific personas for interactive media purposes. We explore the differe…
3DFusion, A real-time 3D object reconstruction pipeline based on streamed instance segmented data
Xi Sun, Derek Jacoby, Yvonne Coady
This paper presents a real-time segmentation and reconstruction system that utilizes RGB-D images to generate accurate and detailed individual 3D models of objects within a capture…
MineSegSAT: An automated system to evaluate mining disturbed area extents from Sentinel-2 imagery
Ezra MacDonald, Derek Jacoby, Yvonne Coady
Assessing the environmental impact of the mineral extraction industry plays a critical role in understanding and mitigating the ecological consequences of extractive activities. Th…
Efficient Cloud Pipelines for Neural Radiance Fields
Derek Jacoby, Donglin Xu, Weder Ribas +6
Since their introduction in 2020, Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs) have taken the computer vision community by storm. They provide a multi-view representation of a scene or object th…
GPS Alignment from Multiple Sources to Extract Aircraft Bearing in Aerial Surveys
Joshua Power, Derek Jacoby, Marc-Antoine Drouin +3
Methodical aerial population surveys monitoring critically endangered species in Canadian North Atlantic waters are instrumental in influencing government policies both in economic…
Toward Data-Driven Glare Classification and Prediction for Marine Megafauna Survey
Joshua Power, Derek Jacoby, Marc-Antoine Drouin +3
Critically endangered species in Canadian North Atlantic waters are systematically surveyed to estimate species populations which influence governing policies. Due to its impact on…
