Gustau Camps-Valls Editor & Author

Gustau Camps-Valls is Professor of Electrical Engineering and Lead Researcher in the Image Processing Laboratory (IPL) at the Universitat de València. His interests include development of statistical learning, mainly kernel machines and neural networks, for Earth sciences, from remote sensing to geoscience data analysis. Models efficiency and accuracy but also interpretability, consistency and causal discovery are driving his agenda on AI for Earth and climate.

Devis Tuia, PhD, is Associate Professor at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). He leads the Environmental Computational Science and Earth Observation laboratory, which focuses on the processing of Earth observation data with computational methods to advance Environmental science.

Xiao Xiang Zhu is Professor of Data Science in Earth Observation and Director of the Munich AI Future Lab AI4EO at the Technical University of Munich and heads the Department EO Data Science at the German Aerospace Center. Her lab develops innovative machine learning methods and big data analytics solutions to extract large scale geo-information from big Earth observation data, aiming at tackling societal grand challenges, e.g. Urbanization, UN’s SDGs and Climate Change.

Markus Reichstein is Director of the Biogeochemical Integration Department at the Max-Planck- Institute for Biogeochemistry and Professor for Global Geoecology at the University of Jena. His main research interests include the response and feedback of ecosystems (vegetation and soils) to climatic variability with an Earth system perspective, considering coupled carbon, water and nutrient cycles. He has been tackling these topics with applied statistical learning for more than 15 years.
