Improving the Detection of Burnt Areas in Remote Sensing using Hyper-features Evolved by M3GP
@article{Batista2020ImprovingTD, title={Improving the Detection of Burnt Areas in Remote Sensing using Hyper-features Evolved by M3GP}, author={Jo{\~a}o E. Batista and Sara Silva}, journal={2020 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC)}, year={2020}, pages={1-8} }
One problem found when working with satellite images is the radiometric variations across the image and different images. Intending to improve remote sensing models for the classification of burnt areas, we set two objectives. The first is to understand the relationship between feature spaces and the predictive ability of the models, allowing us to explain the differences between learning and generalization when training and testing in different datasets. We find that training on datasets built…
