GeoDose-CP: Graph-Local Conformal Inference for Continuous-Treatment Earth Observation

Reliable intervention-oriented uncertainty quantification from Earth observation (EO) remains challenging when continuous treatment shifts, spatial dependence, limited support, and satellite-outcome uncertainty must be addressed simultaneously. Existing causal, conformal, and spatial approaches address parts of this problem, but their direct combination does not generally recover the appropriate interventional reference law because candidate reassignment jointly alters treatment likelihood, standardized residuals, and graph-dependent residual likelihood. This study presents GeoDose-CP, a support-aware conformal framework for localized stochastic potential outcomes under continuous or mixed continuous-atomic treatment. Its central methodological contribution is a graph-local target-orbit law that jointly represents intervention-induced treatment shift, the inverse outcome-scale Jacobian, and spatial residual dependence. The framework further provides exact weighted candidate inversion, a scalable sparse approximation with explicit discrepancy accounting, and refusal under inadequate support. Evaluation used controlled known-truth experiments, MineDoseBench, treatment-density sensitivity analysis, external conformal comparators, and a multi-mine New South Wales (NSW) study. In MineDoseBench, GeoDose-CP achieved mean selective coverage of 0.9692 across 27 configurations and a minimum local q0.05 of 0.8951; exact-sparse auditing produced nine inclusion disagreements over 2,700 targets. In the NSW study, the absence of an auditable longitudinal rehabilitation treatment rendered treatment-dependent inference nonoperational rather than forcing inference through a proxy exposure.

Calibrated Tree-Neural Fusion for Fine-Grained Vegetation Community Classification

Accurate vegetation-community classification is essential for ecological monitoring, habitat assessment, and evidence-based environmental management in heterogeneous landscapes. Existing studies often rely on standalone tree ensembles or generic neural networks, although fine-grained ecological classes frequently exhibit overlapping spectral, topographic, and structural characteristics. Many frameworks also provide limited protection against stacking leakage, insufficient probability calibration, weak minority-class evaluation, and little evidence of stability across repeated data splits. To address these limitations, this study proposes Calibrated EcoTreeFuseNet-Plus, a tree-neural probability-fusion framework that combines out-of-fold tree probabilities, EcoFuseNet-V2 outputs, validation-selected meta-learning, and post-hoc temperature scaling. Raster values from six LiDAR-derived terrain and canopy variables and two hyperspectral vegetation indices were extracted at coordinate-based reference locations. Quality control removed 26 samples with missing elevation and one sample with non-finite NDWI, producing 1,833 complete records across 29 vegetation and non-vegetation classes. On the held-out test set, the proposed model achieved an accuracy of 0.8000, a macro F1-score of 0.7768, a balanced accuracy of 0.7903, and an MCC of 0.7903. Calibration reduced the expected calibration error from 0.3866 to 0.0651 without changing class predictions. Five-seed evaluation yielded a macro F1-score of 0.7717 +/- 0.0112, indicating stable performance across repeated splits. The results demonstrate a reliable discrimination-calibration trade-off for small-sample, fine-grained ecological classification.
