Guiding Labelling Effort for Efficient Learning With Georeferenced Images.

We describe a novel semi-supervised learning method that reduces the labelling effort needed to train convolutional neural networks (CNNs) when processing georeferenced imagery. This allows deep learning CNNs to be trained on a per-dataset basis, which is useful in domains where there is limited learning transferability across datasets. The method identifies representative subsets of images from an unlabelled dataset based on the latent representation of a location guided autoencoder.

Unsupervised feature learning and clustering of particles imaged in raw holograms using an autoencoder.

Digital holography is a useful tool to image microscopic particles. Reconstructed holograms give high-resolution shape information that can be used to identify the types of particles. However, the process of reconstructing holograms is computationally intensive and cannot easily keep up with the rate of data acquisition on low-power sensor platforms.
