I'm quite happy to share that after submitting my PhD in September last year, I finally defended my PhD at @rptu_kl_ld 😁😁. It was a long journey in @DFKI filled with experiences and learning 🤖

I'm happy to share that our new paper in Multi-modal co-learning for Earth observation got published in the ML journal🌍📡 Here, we show how models trained on multiple sensor modalities can boost single-modality inference 🔗 link.springer.com/article/10.100…

We combine contrastive learning + modality-discriminative losses to structure features into shared and specific subspaces. Tested on four EO benchmarks (classification & regression) → consistent gains over both EO and ML state-of-the-art.

Considering the current substantial use of computational resources in deep learning research and its consequential impact on the carbon footprint 👣, it is important to look for systematic ways that lead us to reduce the search space of model configurations

In our paper, we found out that instead of trying all possible combinations, the search could be reduced to a 2-step sequential search: 1) search for the best encoder architecture with early/input fusion, 2) with the encoder selected in (1), search for the best fusion strategy.

It is possible to reduce the number of experiments when searching for the best combination of encoder architecture and fusion strategy for crop classification 🌱🚜? Spoiler alert: In our recent paper, we show that it can! doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.…
