One fundamental problem in Earth Vision is to accurately find the locations and identify categories of interesting objects aerial images, for which oriented bounding boxes (OBBs) are usually employed depict better emerging with arbitrary orientations. However, regression OBBs always suffers from ambiguous definition targets, often reduces convergency efficiency decreases detection accuracy. Although there some methods like binary segmentation map that can handle this problem, it brings a new...
Detecting tiny objects is a very challenging problem since object only contains few pixels in size. We demonstrate that state-of-the-art detectors do not produce satisfactory results on due to the lack of appearance information. Our key observation Intersection over Union (IoU) based metrics such as IoU itself and its extensions are sensitive location deviation objects, drastically deteriorate detection performance when used anchor-based detectors. To alleviate this, we propose new...
Object detection in Earth Vision has achieved great progress recent years. However, tiny object aerial images remains a very challenging problem since the objects contain small number of pixels and are easily confused with background. To advance research images, we present new dataset for Tiny Detection Aerial Images (AI-TOD). Specifically, AI-TOD comes 700,621 instances eight categories across 28,036 images. Compared to existing datasets mean size is about 12.8 pixels, which much smaller...
Object detection in aerial images is a fundamental yet challenging task remote sensing field. As most objects are arbitrary orientations, oriented bounding boxes (OBBs) have great superiority compared with traditional horizontal (HBBs). However, the regression-based OBB methods always suffer from ambiguity definition of learning targets, which will decrease accuracy. In this paper, we provide comprehensive analysis representations and cast regression as pixel-level classification problem,...
Detecting arbitrarily oriented tiny objects poses intense challenges to existing detectors, especially for label assignment. Despite the exploration of adaptive assignment in recent object extreme geometry shape and limited feature still induce severe mismatch imbalance issues. Specifically, position prior, positive sample feature, instance are mismatched, learning extreme-shaped is biased unbalanced due little proper supervision. To tackle these issues, we propose a dynamic prior along with...
Object detection has achieved great progress with the development of anchor-based and anchor-free detectors. However, tiny objects is still challenging due to lack appearance information. In this paper, we observe that Intersection over Union (IoU), most widely used metric in object detection, sensitive slight offsets between predicted bounding boxes ground truths when detecting objects. Although some new metrics such as GIoU, DIoU CIoU are proposed, their performance on below expected level...
The Vision Meets Drone (VisDrone2019) Single Object Tracking challenge is the second annual research activity focusing on evaluating single-object tracking algorithms drones, held in conjunction with International Conference Computer (ICCV 2019). VisDrone-SOT2019 Challenge goes beyond its VisDrone-SOT2018 predecessor by introducing 25 more challenging sequences for long-term tracking. We evaluate and discuss results of 22 participating 19 state-of-the-art trackers collected dataset. are...
Extracting building footprints from aerial images is essential for precise urban mapping with photogrammetric computer vision technologies. Existing approaches mainly assume that the roof and footprint of a are well overlapped, which may not hold in off-nadir as there often big offset between them. In this paper, we propose an vector learning scheme, turns extraction problem into instance-level joint prediction its corresponding "roof to footprint" vector. Thus can be estimated by...
Mangrove forests are colloquially referred to as “Earth’s kidneys” and serve many important ecological commercial functions. Salinity waterlogging stress the most abiotic stressors restricting growth development of mangroves. Kandelia obovata (K. obovata) is greatest latitudinally-distributed salt mangrove species in China.Here, morphology transcriptomics were used study response K. stress. In addition, weighted gene co-expression network analysis combined expression phenotypic datasets was...

3D building reconstruction from monocular remote sensing imagery is an important research problem and economic solution to large-scale city modeling, compared with LiDAR data multi-view imagery. However, several challenges such as the partial invisibility of footprints facades, serious shadow effect, extreme variance height in areas, have restricted existing image based studies certain application scenes, i.e., modeling simple low-rise buildings near-nadir images. In this study, we propose a...
The scientific management of salinized agricultural lands and the use undeveloped saline to ensure food security have become one most urgent tasks nowadays. Biochar contains rich carbon (C) functional groups, processes high alkalinity, porosity, specific surface area (SSA). Thus, it has been widely used as an effective organic conditioner in acidic or neutral soils improve their fertility. However, so far, impacts biochar application on properities underlying mechanisms remain unveiled....
