<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> While deep learning techniques have an increasing impact on many technical fields, gathering sufficient amounts of training data is a challenging problem in remote sensing. In particular, this holds for applications involving data from multiple sensors with heterogeneous characteristics. One example for that is the fusion of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data and optical imagery. With this paper, we publish the <i>SEN1-2</i> dataset to foster deep learning research in SAR-optical data fusion. <i>SEN1-2</i> comprises 282;384 pairs of corresponding image patches, collected from across the globe and throughout all meteorological seasons. Besides a detailed description of the dataset, we show exemplary results for several possible applications, such as SAR image colorization, SAR-optical image matching, and creation of artificial optical images from SAR input data. Since <i>SEN1-2</i> is the first large open dataset of this kind, we believe it will support further developments in the field of deep learning for remote sensing as well as multi-sensor data fusion.</p>

The recent resurgence of Artificial Intelligence (AI), specifically in the context of applications like healthcare, security and defense, IoT, and other areas that have a big impact on human life, has led to a demand for eXplainable AI (XAI). The production of explanations is argued to be a key aspect of achieving goals like trustworthiness and transparent versus opaque AI. XAI is also of fundamental academic interest with respect to helping us identifying weaknesses in the pursuit of making better AI. Herein, I focus on one piece of the AI puzzle, information fusion. In this work, I propose XAI fusion indices, linguistic summaries (aka textual explanations) of these indices, and local explanations for the fuzzy integral. However, a limitation of these indices is its tailored to highly educated fusion experts, and it is not clear what to do with these explanations. Herein, I extend the introduced indices to actionable explanations, which are demonstrated in the context of two case studies; multi-source fusion and deep learning for remote sensing. This work ultimately shows what XAI for fusion is and how to create actionable insights.

Abstract- Deep learning is an emerging research area in machine learning and pattern recognition field which has been presented with the goal of drawing Machine Learning nearer to one of its unique objectives, Artificial Intelligence. It tries to mimic the human brain, which is capable of processing and learning from the complex input data and solving different kinds of complicated tasks well. Deep learning (DL) basically based on a set of supervised and unsupervised algorithms that attempt to model higher level abstractions in data and make it self-learning for hierarchical representation for classification. In the recent years, it has attracted much attention due to its state-of-the-art performance in diverse areas like object perception, speech recognition, computer vision, collaborative filtering and natural language processing. This paper will present a survey on different deep learning techniques for remote sensing image classification.
