evolved channel selection
March 01, 2021 at 10:20 PM | categories: projects, ga, jax
rather than use all 13 channels in a multi spectral image for classification can we train a model that is robust to all combos, at all resolutions, and use a genetic algorithm to choose which are the most valuable? (spoiler; yes)
