Benchmarking interpretability and remote sensing models: BIFOLD contributes to one of Europe's leading forums for computer vision research
The 18th edition of the European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) will be held from September 8 to 12, 2026, in Malmö, Sweden. BIFOLD researchers will contribute two research papers, one of which has been selected for an oral presentation. BIFOLD researchers from the Big Data Analytics for Earth Observation group, led by Prof. Dr. Begüm Demir, developed both papers in close cooperation with institutions such as Inria, UMR TETIS, 5U AI and HU Berlin.
Below is an overview of BIFOLD's contributions:
