Embedding scale: new thinking of scale in machine learning by May Yuan and Arlo McKee, accepted for publication in a special issue on "Scale and Spatial Analytics", Journal of Geographic Systems.

In this paper, we examine embedded scale in data-driven machine learning research, connect the embedding scale to scale operating in the general theory of geographic representation in GIS and scaffold our arguments with a study of using machine learning to detect archaeological features in drone-collected high-density images. <br>Fig3.jpg in this paper originally was published in:<br>Kvamme, K.
