On 14th and 15th May, our 3DGeo group members Bernhard Höfle and Lukas Winiwarter were co-organizing and participating in the 4th colloquium for PhD students working on the topic of Deep Learning and its applications in Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformation Processing of the Deutsche Geodätische Kommission (DGK) and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Photogrammetrie und Fernerkundung (DGPF). Participants from institutions all over Germany gathered at the University of Rostock to present their work and discuss current challenges in their PhDs. Intensive Feedback was provided by both the PhD students themselves and by the organizing commitee (Prof. Dr. Bernhard Höfle, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jan-Henrik Haunert and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ralf Bill). Additionally, two keynote talks were given by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Franz Rottensteiner and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ribana Roscher.
Lukas Winiwarter presented his ideas on the application of Deep Learning techniques to single-point based time series analysis methods, one of the core research topics of the 3DGeo group.
The scientific program was complemented by a social dinner in the city center of Rostock, where the students and supervisors got to exchange in a more relaxed environment.
