GeoAI 2018 workshop report the 2nd ACM SIGSPATIAL international workshop on GeoAI: AI for geographic knowledge discovery seattle, WA, USA-November 6, 2018.

摘要: In today's era of big data, advanced algorithms, and immense computational power, artificial intelligence (AI) is bringing tremendous opportunities and challenges to geospatial research. Big data enable computers to observe and learn the world from many different perspectives, while high performance machines support the developing, training, and applying of AI models within reasonable amount of time. Recent years have witnessed significant advances in the integration of geography and AI in both academia and industry. There have already been many successful studies. Focusing on modeling the physical nature, research has shown that deep learning can improve the representation of clouds that are smaller than the grid resolutions of climate models. Examining the human society, AI and natural language processing methods, such as word embeddings, are helping quantify changes in stereotypes and …
