M3LEO: A Multi-Modal, Multi-Label Earth Observation Dataset Integrating Interferometric SAR and Multispectral Data
Satellite-based remote sensing has revolutionised the way we address global challenges in a rapidly evolving world. Huge quantities of Earth Observation (EO) data are generated by satellite sensors daily, but processing these large datasets for use in ML pipelines is technically and computationally challenging. Specifically, different types of EO data are often hosted on a variety of platforms, with differing degrees of availability for Python preprocessing tools. In addition, spatial alignment across data sources and data tiling for easier handling can present significant technical hurdles for novice users.
In-Context Symmetries: Self-Supervised Learning through Contextual World Models
Can incorporating context into self-supervised vision algorithms eliminate augmentation-based inductive priors and enable dynamic adaptation to varying task symmetries? This work suggests a positive answer to this question by proposing to enhance the current joint embedding architecture with a finite context -- an abstract representation of a task, containing a few demonstrations that inform about task-specific symmetries, as shown in Figure 2(c).
