现代地球观测依赖卫星获取地表详细信息,但影响人类和生态系统的许多现象发生在贴近地表的大气中。近地传感器可提供近地气温(NSAT)的精确测量,但分布稀疏且不均,难以实现连续的空间覆盖。为弥补这一差距,我们提出SPyCer——一种半监督物理引导的上下文注意力网络,利用像素信息与物理建模指导学习过程,通过卫星影像间接连续估计NSAT。SPyCer将NSAT预测建模为像素级视觉问题:每个地面传感器投影至卫星图像坐标,并位于局部图像块中心。对应传感器像素同时受实测NSAT与物理约束监督,周围像素则通过基于表面能量平衡和对流-扩散-反应偏微分方程推导的物理引导正则化贡献。为捕捉邻域物理影响,模型采用由地表覆盖特征引导、高斯距离加权调制的多头注意力机制。在真实数据集上的实验表明,SPyCer生成的空间一致且物理解释性强的NSAT估计,其准确性、泛化能力及与物理过程的一致性均优于现有基线方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Modern Earth observation relies on satellites to capture detailed surface properties. Yet, many phenomena that affect humans and ecosystems unfold in the atmosphere close to the surface. Near-ground sensors provide accurate measurements of certain environmental characteristics, such as near-surface air temperature (NSAT). However, they remain sparse and unevenly distributed, limiting their ability to provide continuous spatial measurements. To bridge this gap, we introduce SPyCer, a semi-supervised physics-guided network that can leverage pixel information and physical modeling to guide the learning process through meaningful physical properties. It is designed for continuous estimation of NSAT by proxy using satellite imagery. SPyCer frames NSAT prediction as a pixel-wise vision problem, where each near-ground sensor is projected onto satellite image coordinates and positioned at the center of a local image patch. The corresponding sensor pixel is supervised using both observed NSAT and physics-based constraints, while surrounding pixels contribute through physics-guided regularization derived from the surface energy balance and advection-diffusion-reaction partial differential equations. To capture the physical influence of neighboring pixels, SPyCer employs a multi-head attention guided by land cover characteristics and modulated with Gaussian distance weighting. Experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that SPyCer produces spatially coherent and physically consistent NSAT estimates, outperforming existing baselines in terms of accuracy, generalization, and alignment with underlying physical processes.
