01 May 2025 - Galileo @ ICML
Galileo is accepted to ICML! We develop a new self-supervised learning algorithm tailored to remote sensing, and use it to train a model which achieves state-of-the-art results across a diversity of remote sensing tasks (ranging from image segmentation to pixel-timeseries classification). Check out the code and paper.
