Satellite imagery and maps, as two fundamental data modalities in remote sensing, offer direct observations of the Earth's surface and human-interpretable geographic abstractions, respectively. The task of bidirectional translation between…
The perception of autonomous vehicles using radars has attracted increased research interest due its ability to operate in fog and bad weather. However, training radar models is hindered by the cost and difficulty of annotating large-scale…
Sensor fusion of multiple sources plays an important role in vehicular systems to achieve refined target position and velocity estimates. In this article, we address the general registration problem, which is a key module for a fusion…
Global magnetic fields of early-type stars are commonly characterised by the mean longitudinal magnetic field $\langle B_{\rm z} \rangle$ and the mean field modulus $\langle B \rangle$, derived from the circular polarisation and intensity…
Polarization plays an important role in various time-domain astrophysics to understand the magnetic fields, geometry, and environments of spatially unresolved variable sources. In this paper we present the results of laboratory and on-sky…
Identifying and utilising various biomarkers for tracking Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression have received many recent attentions and enable helping clinicians make the prompt decisions. Traditional progression models focus on extracting…
The rapidly increasing volume of asteroseismic observations on solar-type stars has revealed a need for automated analysis tools. The reason for this is not only that individual analyses of single stars are rather time consuming, but more…
In this paper, we focus on the multi-object tracking (MOT) problem of automatic driving and robot navigation. Most existing MOT methods track multiple objects using a singular RGB camera, which are prone to camera field-of-view and suffer…
Solar active regions are where sunspots are located and photospheric magnetic fluxes are concentrated, therefore being the sources of energetic eruptions in the solar atmosphere. The detection and statistics of solar active regions have…
The discovery of binaries in each of the major populations of minor bodies in the solar system is propelling a rapid growth of heretofore unattainable physical information. The availability of mass and density constraints for minor bodies…
