Joint Anomaly Detection and Spectral Unmixing for Planetary Hyperspectral Images

Harold Gabriel Eugène Justin Clenet, Nicolas Courty

Hyperspectral (HS) images are commonly used in the context of planetary exploration, particularly for the analysis of the composition of planets. As several instruments have been sent throughout the Solar System, a huge quantity of data is getting availabl ...

Built-in Foreground/Background Prior for Weakly-Supervised Semantic Segmentation

Mathieu Salzmann, Fatemehsadat Saleh

Pixel-level annotations are expensive and time consuming to obtain. Hence, weak supervision using only image tags could have a significant impact in semantic segmentation. Recently, CNN-based methods have proposed to fine-tune pre-trained networks using im ...

Dealing with Mid-Air Collisions in Dense Collective Aerial Systems

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Severin Leven

The idea of creating collective aerial systems is appealing because several rather simple flying vehicles could join forces to cover a large area in little time in applications such as monitoring, mapping, search and rescue, or airborne communication relay ...
