Mapping these RTS is crucial because their appearance serves as a clear indication of permafrost thaw.

In this article, we extend a state-of-the-art deep learning model to delineate RTS features across the Arctic in a multimodal setting. Two new strategies were introduced to optimize multimodal learning and enhance the model's predictive performance: 1) a feature-level, residual cross-modality attention fusion strategy, which effectively integrates feature maps from multiple modalities to capture complementary information and improve the model's ability to understand complex patterns and relationships within the data; 2) pretrained unimodal learning followed by multimodal fine-tuning to alleviate high computing demand while achieving strong model performance. Experimental results demonstrated that our approach outperformed existing models adopting data-level fusion, feature-level convolutional fusion, and various attention fusion strategies, providing valuable insights into the efficient utilization of multimodal data for RTS mapping.

In this study, we used functional principal component analysis (FPCA) to leverage synthetic aperture radar (SAR) time-series information and explore whether common wetlands and uplands can be separated based on seasonal trends in backscatter intensity. To contextualize the results, we first identify the drivers of change and analyze variations in seasonal backscatter intensity trends using four years of <inline-formula><tex-math>$C$</tex-math></inline-formula>-band Sentinel-1 VV and VH data. We then trained an FPCA-based feature extraction engine to, first, evaluate the potential of FPCA to improve SAR time series handling and interpretation, second, evaluate the spatio-temporal consistency and separability of derived scores, and third, investigate whether adaptive training can improve the predictive power of FPCA scores. The results showed that microwave-surface interactions vary seasonally between classes. This was primarily due to changes in phenology and hydrology, whose effects on backscatter varied depending on target characteristics such as plant functional type. On the other hand, scores were relatively consistent within each specified class, though shifted according to some significant changes in target characteristics. Classification of scores using random forest demonstrated that the method was effective in generating discriminant features. Independent overall accuracies ranged from 83% to 89% even when the model was applied to unseen data and in spite of inherent difficulties distinguishing between swamp and forest. Retraining and reapplying FPCA to better capture the variation specific to these classes also demonstrated that the predictive power of scores remained constrained by the inherent limitations of <inline-formula><tex-math>$C$</tex-math></inline-formula>-band VV and VH polarized data for detecting surface water in forested areas. Overall, these findings highlight the potential of FPCA to improve the handling and interpretation of SAR time series, and that seasonal backscatter intensity trends, captured by FPCA scores, can effectively separate multiple common wetlands and uplands.","PeriodicalId":13116,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing","volume":"18 ","pages":"14416-14437"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10979204","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144299060","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deep-learning-based multiview stereo (MVS) methods are primarily applicable to tristereo data captured simultaneously and rely heavily on training samples. Traditional MVS methods typically rely on simple filtering and weighting techniques for digital surface model (DSM) fusion based on image pair selection and pairwise stereo matching, which are usually affected by poor image pairs and fail to fully exploit the complementary advantages of DSMs. To address these limitations, this article proposes a novel DSM fusion method incorporating learning-based dual-scale enhanced confidence for three-dimensional reconstruction from multiview satellite imagery. First, a generalized stereo matching method is adopted, which considers radiometric differences and small feature variations. Next, auxiliary information generated during pairwise stereo reconstruction is utilized to construct a high-dimensional confidence vector that includes classical confidence measures and a newly designed topological structure relationship consistency measure. Then, a guided regularized random forest regressor is employed to identify influential confidence measures and establish their correlation with reconstruction accuracy, leading to the estimation of enhanced confidence. Additionally, to preserve fine details and boundary information, the dual-scale enhanced confidence is introduced to facilitate cross-scale DSM fusion. Finally, each view is sequentially treated as the master view to obtain DSMs, which are then fused to produce the final DSM. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves superior performance across various datasets, including tristereo Beijing-3 data acquired nearly simultaneously, multiview WorldView-3 data captured at different times, and self-made tristereo data collected from different sensors at different times. The proposed method achieves an average MAE of 1.14 m, RMSE of 2.16 m, median height error of 0.47 m, and COMP of 75.13%, outperforming several mainstream methods.","PeriodicalId":13116,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing","volume":"18 ","pages":"11767-11786"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10977986","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144084789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We evaluated the bathymetric performance of the SEML model by combining multitemporal Sentinel-2 imagery and sonar data from Houteng Reef and Wufang Reef in the Spratly Islands. The findings showed the performance rankings of these models at Houteng Reef were SEML, K-nearest neighbor (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), multilayer perceptron (MLP), and RF, while at Wufang Reef, they shifted to SEML, SVM, MLP, KNN, and RF. By contrast, the SEML outperformed traditional ML models in accuracy and robustness. At Houteng Reef, the SEML achieved an RMSE of 0.46 m, representing a 13.21% decrease compared to KNN. Similarly, at Wufang Reef, the RMSE of the SEML model was 0.75 m, achieving a 5.06% decrease compared to SVM.

However, most existing methods suffer from guaranteeing the quality of the generated SSL pseudoannotations, and the constructed auxiliary tasks are not detection-oriented, which is difficult to enhance the feature representations that are beneficial for object detection. In this article, we focus on generating more accurate constraints by excavating the intercorrelation between fully and weakly supervised learning (WSL) to improve the performance of object detection in RSIs. Initially, WSL assigns the pseudoinstance-level annotations for the high-scoring positive bags to model the detector, which can be regarded as a weakened version of the region proposal network (RPN). Fortunately, RPN can be constrained by the ground truth (GT) of bounding boxes in fully supervised learning (FSL), and the high-quality supervisions it provides are unavailable in any WSL methods. Moreover, we construct a proposal generation module, which further filters the unreliable bounding boxes, predicted by RPN, to supplement high-quality constraints into the GT and SS generated candidate boxes to supervise the optimization of WSL branch. By constructing an interactive learning paradigm of WSL and FSL, the former has more accurate constraints to learn an efficient auxiliary task, while the latter enjoys a richer representation form of data provided by WSL, which is undoubtedly a win–win process. Finally, we cascade the losses of WSL and FSL to further explore the intrinsic correlation between them by sharing the same feature extraction network. Experimental comparisons on DOTA and DIOR datasets demonstrate that our method achieves superior performance than many recent object detection approaches by the significant margin.","PeriodicalId":13116,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing","volume":"18 ","pages":"12303-12314"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10976539","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144123344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our results show that ClrOLR and T2m have remarkable effectiveness in detecting seismic TAs. From the perspective of focal mechanism, T2m performs best for the earthquakes triggered by normal faults and also good for thrust fault events, and ClrOLR is most effective for those triggered by strike-slip faults. In terms of location, ClrOLR preforms best for continental earthquakes, while T2m is most effective for oceanic earthquakes.

The accurate spatiotemporal predictions of soil moisture provide insights into future conditions, supporting decision making in applications, such as crop yield optimization, irrigation planning, and drought management. However, existing models face limitations in capturing complex spatiotemporal dependencies and dynamic causal interactions. This article proposes a spatiotemporal prediction framework that integrates causal inference with deep learning, termed the causal-guided spatiotemporal Swin transformer (Causal ST-SwinT). The model introduces a dynamic causal weight adjustment mechanism to adaptively optimize the causal relationship intensity between variables and adopts a hierarchical multilevel feature extraction strategy to effectively capture complex spatiotemporal dependencies, thereby enhancing prediction accuracy and model interpretability. The proposed method is validated on the ERA5 and soil moisture active passive (SMAP) datasets over the Tibetan Plateau and compared with multiple models. Experimental results show that Causal ST-SwinT significantly outperforms the classical convolutional long short-term memory model, reducing mean absolute error from 0.0146 to 0.0055 m<sup>3</sup>/m<sup>3</sup> on the ERA5 dataset and from 0.0088 to 0.0046 m<sup>3</sup>/m<sup>3</sup> on the SMAP dataset. Robustness analysis reveals that Causal ST-SwinT maintains high prediction accuracy under various environmental conditions. Ablation experiments further confirm the critical role of the causal attention module in improving model performance. These findings demonstrate that integrating causal knowledge with deep learning models effectively enhances the modeling capabilities of complex spatiotemporal systems, providing a novel solution for broader spatiotemporal prediction tasks.","PeriodicalId":13116,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing","volume":"18 ","pages":"12166-12179"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10976363","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144123345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
