Overcoming "Physics Shock" in Earth Observation A Heteroscedastic Uncertainty Framework for PINN-based Flood Inference

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2605.24106v1 Announce Type: cross Rapid and accurate flood extent mapping from Remote Sensing data, such as Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), is critical for operational disaster response, but standard Deep Learning models often produce physically impossible predictions due to a lack of hydrological constraints. While PhysicsInformed Neural Networks (PINNs) attempt to address this by embedding governing laws directly into the loss function, their application to real-world remote sensing data frequently fails.
