How Much of a Model Do We Need? Redundancy and Slimmability in Remote Sensing Foundation Models

Leonard Hackel, Tom Burgert, Begüm Demir

Large-scale foundation models (FMs) in remote sensing (RS) (denoted as RS FMs) are developed following paradigms established in computer vision (CV), yet the validity of transferri…

ImageNet-trained CNNs are not biased towards texture: Revisiting feature reliance through controlled suppression

Tom Burgert, Oliver Stoll, Paolo Rota +1

The hypothesis that Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are inherently texture-biased has shaped much of the discourse on feature use in deep learning. We revisit this hypothesis…

Rank-based Geographical Regularization: Revisiting Contrastive Self-Supervised Learning for Multispectral Remote Sensing Imagery

Tom Burgert, Leonard Hackel, Paolo Rota +1

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has become a powerful paradigm for learning from large, unlabeled datasets, particularly in computer vision (CV). However, applying SSL to multispect…

On the Effectiveness of Methods and Metrics for Explainable AI in Remote Sensing Image Scene Classification

Jonas Klotz, Tom Burgert, Begüm Demir

The development of explainable artificial intelligence (xAI) methods for scene classification problems has attracted great attention in remote sensing (RS). Most xAI methods and th…
