NeuCo-Bench: A Novel Benchmark Framework for Neural Embeddings in Earth Observation

arXiv:2510.17914v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce NeuCo-Bench, a novel benchmark framework for evaluating (lossy) neural compression and representation learning in the context of Earth Observation (EO). Our approach builds on fixed-size embeddings that act as compact, task-agnostic representations applicable…

Sim2Dust: Mastering Dynamic Waypoint Tracking on Granular Media

arXiv:2508.11503v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliable autonomous navigation across the unstructured terrains of distant planetary surfaces is a critical enabler for future space exploration. However, the deployment of learning-based controllers is hindered by the inherent sim-to-real gap, particularly for the…

Uncertainty-Aware Post-Hoc Calibration: Mitigating Confidently Incorrect Predictions Beyond Calibration Metrics

arXiv:2510.17915v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite extensive research on neural network calibration, existing methods typically apply global transformations that treat all predictions uniformly, overlooking the heterogeneous reliability of individual predictions. Furthermore, the relationship between improved calibration and effective uncertainty-aware decision-making…

{epsilon}-Seg: Sparsely Supervised Semantic Segmentation of Microscopy Data

arXiv:2510.18637v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic segmentation of electron microscopy (EM) images of biological samples remains a challenge in the life sciences. EM data captures details of biological structures, sometimes with such complexity that even human observers can find it…
