GBDT Method Integrating Feature-Enhancement and Active-Learning Strategies—Sea Ice Thickness Inversion in Beaufort Sea
Sea ice, as an important component of the Earth’s ecosystem, has a profound impact on global climate and human activities due to its thickness. Therefore, the inversion of sea ice thickness has important research significance. Due to environmental and equipment-related limitations, the number of sam...

Sea ice, as an important component of the Earth’s ecosystem, has a profound impact on global climate and human activities due to its thickness.

At high spatial resolutions, remote sensing data contain limited information and noise interference, which seriously affect the accuracy of sea ice thickness inversion. In response to the above issues, we conducted experiments using ice draft data from the Beaufort Sea and designed an improved GBDT method that integrates feature-enhancement and active-learning strategies (IFEAL-GBDT).
