DarthReca / CLOSP-VL

CLOSP-VL

CLOSP (Contrastive Language Optical SAR Pretraining) is a multimodal architecture designed for text-to-image retrieval. It creates a unified embedding space for text, Sentinel-2 (MSI), and Sentinel-1 (SAR) data. The CLOSP-VL variant uses a ViT-large vision backbone.

Model Details

The model uses three separate encoders: one for text, one for Sentinel-1 (SAR) data, and one for Sentinel-2 (MSI) data. During training, it uses a contrastive objective to align the textual embeddings with the corresponding visual embeddings (either SAR or MSI).
