A Dataset and Model for Imputing Water Surface Elevation on a Large and Extremely Sparse Spatiotemporal Graph

The paper introduces AmazonSWE, a dataset covering over 19,000 river sections in the Amazon basin for 10 years, combining satellite altimetry and in‑situ gauge data to enable large‑scale spatiotemporal graph imputation. The authors highlight the extreme sparsity of observations—less than 1% of sections per day—and the directed acyclic topology of river networks, which challenge existing imputation methods. They propose a bidirectional selective state‑space model that samples connected subgraphs and uses topology‑aware positional encodings, achieving 18–39% lower RMSE than the current state‑of‑the‑art SWOT‑based approach while providing predictions for all river sections.

Multi-task Disentangling Fusion Mamba-CNN for MODIS Spectral-Temporal Unmixing with Endmember Variability Modeling

The paper introduces Multi-task Disentangling Fusion Mamba (MDF-Mamba), a framework for spectral-temporal unmixing of MODIS time series. It uses a disentangling architecture that pairs per-channel spectral experts with a bidirectional Mamba temporal branch, and integrates their outputs via a manifold-constrained hyper-connection (mHCFusion). The method also models endmember variability with pixel-wise learnable weights and employs a multi-task training objective combining supervised abundance estimation, self-supervised spectral reconstruction, and endmember regularization, achieving top performance on most evaluation metrics for Alberta and Saskatchewan datasets.

A Dataset and Model for Imputing Water Surface Elevation on a Large and Extremely Sparse Spatiotemporal Graph

The paper introduces AmazonSWE, a dataset covering over 19,000 river sections in the Amazon basin for 10 years (2016‑2026) that integrates satellite altimetry, including SWOT, to enable large‑scale spatiotemporal graph imputation. The dataset is extremely sparse—fewer than 1% of sections are observed daily—and features a directed acyclic river topology that is larger and structurally distinct from existing benchmarks. The authors demonstrate that conventional imputation methods struggle with this topology, scale, and sparsity, and propose a bidirectional selective state‑space model that outperforms prior approaches, reducing RMSE against in‑situ gauges by 18‑39% and providing predictions for every river section. whyItMatters":"AmazonSWE offers a novel, real‑world use case that could improve flood forecasting and water resource management by enabling more accurate and comprehensive water surface elevation estimates across a vast, sparsely monitored river network."
