Abstract
Spaceborne GNSS reflectometry (GNSS-R) missions have been successfully launched in recent years, such as Technology Demonstration Satellite (TDS-1) in 2014, Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) in 2016, Bufeng (BF)-1 A/B in 2019, and Fengyun (FY)-3E/3F/3G and Tianmu-1, launched successively in 2021. They provide a large amount of data to support spaceborne GNSS-R remote sensing applications, and spaceborne GNSS-R technology has also been widely used in various remote sensing fields by virtue of its advantages. With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), many machine learning (ML) models have been developed for GNSS-R observations to estimate geophysical parameters. In particular, deep learning (DL) techniques have proved to have great potential to improve the accuracy of retrieval models in spaceborne GNSS-R applications, including ocean, land, cryosphere, atmosphere, and environment monitoring. This article provides the first comprehensive review of the application of ML in GNSS-R for Earth observation and remote sensing. The article first summarizes common ML algorithms as well as their basic concepts and theories. It then thoroughly reviews the progress of ML methods in the field of spaceborne GNSS-R and discusses the advantages, disadvantages, and challenges of ML models applied to GNSS-R. More importantly, it is imperative to adopt DL into the field of GNSS-R remote sensing and use it as a general model to tackle unprecedented, large-scale, and impactful challenges in areas such as ocean, land, cryosphere, atmosphere, hydrology, and environment remote sensing.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
