A Comprehensive Survey of Deep Learning in Remote Sensing: Theories, Tools and Challenges for the Community
In recent years, deep learning (DL), a re-branding of neural networks (NNs),
has risen to the top in numerous areas, namely computer vision (CV), speech
recognition, natural language processing, etc. Whereas remote sensing (RS)
possesses a number of unique challenges, primarily related to sensors and
applications, inevitably RS draws from many of the same theories as CV; e.g.,
statistics, fusion, and machine learning, to name a few. This means that the RS
community should be aware of, if not at the leading edge of, of advancements
like DL. Herein, we provide the most comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art
RS DL research. We also review recent new developments in the DL field that can
be used in DL for RS. Namely, we focus on theories, tools and challenges for
the RS community. Specifically, we focus on unsolved challenges and
opportunities as it relates to (i) inadequate data sets, (ii)
human-understandable solutions for modelling physical phenomena, (iii) Big
Data, (iv) non-traditional heterogeneous data sources, (v) DL architectures and
learning algorithms for spectral, spatial and temporal data, (vi) transfer
learning, (vii) an improved theoretical understanding of DL systems, (viii)
high barriers to entry, and (ix) training and optimizing the DL.Comment: 64 pages, 411 references. To appear in Journal of Applied Remote

Activity Recognition and Prediction in Real Homes
In this paper, we present work in progress on activity recognition and
prediction in real homes using either binary sensor data or depth video data.
We present our field trial and set-up for collecting and storing the data, our
methods, and our current results. We compare the accuracy of predicting the
next binary sensor event using probabilistic methods and Long Short-Term Memory
(LSTM) networks, include the time information to improve prediction accuracy,
as well as predict both the next sensor event and its mean time of occurrence
using one LSTM model. We investigate transfer learning between apartments and
show that it is possible to pre-train the model with data from other apartments
and achieve good accuracy in a new apartment straight away. In addition, we
present preliminary results from activity recognition using low-resolution
depth video data from seven apartments, and classify four activities - no
movement, standing up, sitting down, and TV interaction - by using a relatively
simple processing method where we apply an Infinite Impulse Response (IIR)
filter to extract movements from the frames prior to feeding them to a
convolutional LSTM network for the classification.Comment: 12 pages, Symposium of the Norwegian AI Society NAIS 201
