In this episode, I caught up with Kai Jeggle to discuss his experience pursuing a PhD at the intersection of machine learning and remote sensing. The conversation covers Kai's work on IceCloudNet, a deep learning model that reconstructs 3D cloud structures from 2D imagery with sparse depth measurements. Data fusion and sparse machine learning are fascinating topics. I learned a lot from this conversation, and I hope you do to.
