Microwave satellite imagery plays a crucial role in monitoring tropical cyclone precipitation and intensity worldwide, but suffers from long revisit times, potentially missing rapid storm evolution phases. While this raises the need for an interpolation method, it is made challenging by the high level of heterogeneity of microwave data coming from different instruments. In this work, we introduce the first generative model that can be applied to multiple geospatial sources that change across samples, occur at irregular time intervals, are misaligned geographically, and come from instruments with varying characteristics. We apply this model to the case of spatio-temporal interpolation of tropical cyclone microwave images from other microwave and infrared instruments. We train using a self-supervised task in which a random source is masked and reconstructed, and show that it leads to a significant decrease in Continuous Ranked Probability Score over supervised training. We show a further improvement by combining infrared and microwave data compared to microwave only. Using these improvements, the generative model produces an ensemble mean on par with that of a deterministic model, while generating a power spectrum significantly closer to that of true observations. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first generative model that interpolates microwave images of cyclones by combining multiple microwave instruments and infrared observations at irregular time intervals.
Reliable driving scene parsing is a fundamental capability for autonomous vehicles operating in open and dynamic driving environments. However, adapting perception models to new deployment domains remains challenging because pixel-level annotations are expensive to obtain, while source-domain data are often inaccessible due to privacy, security, or ownership constraints. Existing source-free unsupervised domain adaptation methods typically rely on a single pre-trained source model, which makes the adapted perception system vulnerable to source-specific biases and limits its robustness under diverse road layouts, illumination conditions, weather patterns, and traffic conditions. This article presents an unsupervised collaborative domain adaptation (UCDA) framework for driving scene parsing in a source-free setting, which transfers complementary knowledge from multiple pre-trained source models to a unified target model without accessing any original source samples. To compare predictions from independently trained models, UCDA constructs a class-level prototype memory bank and estimates cross-model prediction reliability through prototype similarity, reducing the effect of inconsistent confidence scales across source models. Based on the resulting complementary supervision, UCDA adopts a two-stage transfer strategy: multiple source models are first refined on unlabeled target-domain driving data through collaborative optimization with positive and negative consistency constraints, and their validated expertise is then distilled into a single deployable target model. Comprehensive evaluations on public driving-scene datasets and real-world data collected from an autonomous vehicle platform demonstrate that UCDA effectively consolidates complementary multi-source knowledge, improving target-domain scene parsing reliability and generalization across diverse driving environments.
