A General Approach to Domain Adaptation with Applications in Astronomy [PDF]
, 2018 The ability to build a model on a source task and subsequently adapt such model on a new target task is a pervasive need in many astronomical applications. The problem is generally known as transfer learning in machine learning, where domain adaptation is a popular scenario.

Supervised Multi-Regional Segmentation Machine Learning Architecture for Digital Twin Applications in Coastal Regions [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This study explores the use of a digital twin model and deep learning method to build a global terrain and altitude map based on USGS information. The goal is to artistically represent various landforms while incorporating precise elevation modifications in the terrain map and encoding land height in the altitude map.

Large Scale Landform Mapping Using Lidar DEM
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2015 In this study, LIDAR DEM data was used to obtain a primary landform map in accordance with a well-known methodology. This primary landform map was generalized using the Focal Statistics tool (Majority), considering the minimum area condition in ...

A fire safety engineering approach to improving community resilience to the impacts of wildfire
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.Abstract Each year severe wildfires continue to cause significant destruction resulting in the loss of life, property, critical infrastructure, and the environment. In an effort to increase community preparedness and resilience to wildfire, international jurisdictions have adopted both guiding principles and prescriptive codes that apply to both urban ...

Landform classification based on adjacency index of feature lines
SPIE Proceedings, 2007 Landform feature points and lines have been used as basic landform descriptors of landform skeleton in many fields, including surveying, simulation of hydrology, landform classification, and vegetation mapping. With the objective of landform classification from DEMs, an approach has been put forward based on topological parameters and the extended ones.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In Ireland, the Nahanagan Stadial (NS) was characterised by cirque glacier, plateau icefield and mountain ice cap expansion and is named after the cirque glacier type‐site of Lough Nahanagan in the Wicklow Mountains. This period is broadly equivalent to the Younger Dryas Stadial and Greenland Stadial‐1 (GS‐1: ~12.9–11.7 ka).

Testing Semi-Automated Landforms Extraction Using Field-Based Geomorphological Maps
GeosciencesThe semi-automated extraction of landforms using GIS analysis is one of the main topics in computer analyses. The use of digital elevation models (DEMs) in GIS applications makes the extraction and classification procedure of landforms easier and faster.
