Geo-knowledge-guided GPT models improve the extraction of location descriptions from disaster-related social media messages

Yingjie Hu, Gengchen Mai, Chris Cundy +6

Social media messages posted by people during natural disasters often contain important location descriptions, such as the locations of victims. Recent research has shown that many…

SSIF: Learning Continuous Image Representation for Spatial-Spectral Super-Resolution

Gengchen Mai, Ni Lao, Weiwei Sun +7

Existing digital sensors capture images at fixed spatial and spectral resolutions (e.g., RGB, multispectral, and hyperspectral images), and each combination requires bespoke machin…

CSP: Self-Supervised Contrastive Spatial Pre-Training for Geospatial-Visual Representations

Gengchen Mai, Ni Lao, Yutong He +2

Geo-tagged images are publicly available in large quantities, whereas labels such as object classes are rather scarce and expensive to collect. Meanwhile, contrastive learning has…

On the Opportunities and Challenges of Foundation Models for Geospatial Artificial Intelligence

Gengchen Mai, Weiming Huang, Jin Sun +11

Large pre-trained models, also known as foundation models (FMs), are trained in a task-agnostic manner on large-scale data and can be adapted to a wide range of downstream tasks by…

Contrastive Feature Induction for Efficient Structure Learning of Conditional Random Fields

Ni Lao, Jun Zhu

Structure learning of Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) can be cast into an L1-regularized optimization problem. To avoid optimizing over a fully linked model, gain-based or gradien…
