arXiv:2608. 03023v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Remote sensing semantic segmentation is hindered by costly pixel-level annotations, motivating training-free open-vocabulary methods.
The paper introduces OVRSISBench, a unified benchmark for open‑vocabulary remote sensing image segmentation, and evaluates existing OVS/OVRSIS models, uncovering their shortcomings in remote sensing contexts. Leveraging insights from this evaluation, the authors propose RSKT‑Seg, a new framework featuring a Multi‑Directional Cost Map Aggregation module, an Efficient Cost Map Fusion transformer, and a Remote Sensing Knowledge Transfer module. Experiments on the benchmark demonstrate that RSKT‑Seg outperforms strong baselines by +3.8 mIoU and +5.9 mACC while achieving twice the inference speed.

Open-vocabulary remote sensing segmentation has recently emerged as a promising paradigm that enables pixel-level recognition of arbitrary categories specified by natural language, including classes unseen during training. However, geospatial domain shifts caused by heterogeneous regions, spatial resolutions, and acquisition platforms weaken visual-text matching and limit cross-dataset generalization.

arXiv:2606. 14081v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rapid post-event landslide mapping is essential for disaster response but remains difficult to automate due to extreme class imbalance.
MANTLE is a multi‑task adaptive network designed for planetary perception, featuring a shared DINOv2 backbone with separate heads for landform classification and boulder segmentation. Trained on HiRISE and MSL imagery, it achieved 92.56% accuracy on seven Martian terrain classes and a 0.753 IoU for boulder segmentation, with strong cross‑sol generalization. The framework follows the Modular Uplink Principle, allowing lightweight task‑specific heads to be trained on Earth and uplinked to the rover without retraining the core model.
