OpenEarth-OVS44: A Multimodal Remote Sensing Dataset for Open-Vocabulary Segmentation

OpenEarth-OVS44 is a new multimodal remote sensing dataset featuring 290,587 expert‑verified segments from 2,832 RGB images and 1,341 RGB‑SAR pairs at sub‑meter resolution, covering 40 cities in France, Japan, and the United States. It adopts a unified 44‑class taxonomy organized into nine base categories and offers three evaluation tracks: an RGB‑only fine‑grained benchmark, a multimodal track with synthetic cloudy conditions for weather‑robust evaluation, and a held‑out cross‑region track. Experiments show that training on OpenEarth-OVS44 improves fine‑grained segmentation performance, achieving up to 7.1 mIoU points on unseen categories and 27.6 mIoU points on seen categories compared to the strongest training‑free baseline.

Exploring Efficient Open-Vocabulary Segmentation in the Remote Sensing

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.

A PyTorch Library for Hyperspectral Image Models: Technical Report

The paper introduces a PyTorch library that unifies 55 hyperspectral image models across six deep‑learning paradigms, providing a common registry, automatic tensor adaptation, and standardized constructors. It includes 24 benchmark scenes from various sensors, with tools for data preprocessing, patch extraction, and rigorous train‑test partitioning to avoid overlap. Experiments on 1,320 model‑scene combinations show that scene difficulty outweighs architecture choice, with no single paradigm dominating and small models performing competitively with much larger ones.
