Machine Learning-based Classification of Different 3D Point Cloud Data of Railway Environments using Random Forest and DGCNN

Although monitoring and maintenance of railways is important to ensure safety and avoid delays and financial losses, it is still mainly based on human inspection. The complexity of a railway along with the large area it extends makes manual monitoring difficult and time-consuming. The increasing availability of 3D acquisition technologies has...

Polarimetric SAR signals of river ice breakup

Ice jam events can be devastating for the environment, human infrastructure, and local population. During breakup season, it is of great importance to be informed about the river ice cover condition in order to mitigate breakup flood risk. The Athabasca River near FortMcMurray, located in Alberta, is particularly prone to ice jam events and...

Interpretable Machine Learning for Biomarker Discovery in Imaging Mass Spectrometry Data

Imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) is a multiplexed chemical imaging technique that enables the spatially targeted molecular mapping of biological samples at cellular resolutions. Within a single experiment, IMS can measure the spatial distribution and relative concentration of thousands of distinct molecular species across the surface of a tissue...
