Learning to Interpret Satellite Images Using Wikipedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2018, written by Evan Sheehan, Burak Uzkent, Chenlin Meng, Zhongyi Tang, Marshall Burke and David B. Lobell.
Overview
Despite recent progress in computer vision, fine-grained interpretation of satellite images remains challenging because of a lack of labeled training data. To overcome this limitation, authors propose using Wikipedia as a previously untapped source of rich, georeferenced textual information with global coverage. Authors construct a novel large-scale, multi-modal dataset by pairing geo-referenced Wikipedia articles with satellite imagery of their corresponding locations. To prove the efficacy of this dataset, authors focus on the African continent and train a deep network to classify images based on labels extracted from articles. Authors then fine-tune the model on a human annotated dataset and demonstrate that this weak form of supervision can drastically reduce the quantity of human annotated labels and time required for downstream tasks.
