The paper introduces a Local-Geo and Spatial Context Fusion (LGSCF) strategy that combines point-based geo-environmental features with surrounding spatial context using a feature-wise modulation mechanism. Applied to nine CNN models over a 2644 km² area in Taiwan, LGSCF consistently outperforms baseline models, achieving F1-scores up to 87.09% and AUC values up to 0.9472. The resulting susceptibility maps more accurately concentrate known landslides in high-risk zones with fewer misclassifications.

Newly triggered landslides rarely carry immediate annotations, so cross-domain transferability determines the value of landslide mapping for emergency response and regional risk assessment. Vision foundation models have strengthened representational transfer, yet on unseen regions, events, and data sources they still generate high-confidence false alarms.

Accurate and efficient reconstruction of cloud-contaminated and noise-corrupted NDVI time series remains a challenge in remote sensing. Deep learning provides a promising solution for modeling complex spatiotemporal dependencies; however, its application is often limited by the difficulty of obtaining paired clear-sky and degraded NDVI data for identical spatiotemporal locations.
The paper introduces Variance‑Guided Spatial Attention Fusion (VG‑SAF), a method for robust end‑to‑end driving that fuses camera and LiDAR data while handling asymmetric sensor degradation. VG‑SAF uses a physically grounded augmentor to generate dense reliability masks, modality‑specific experts to predict per‑pixel reliability scales, and a hybrid attention mechanism that gates unreliable cells and balances modalities. The approach also includes a Laplace uncertainty head to signal severe or combined sensor failures, and demonstrates improved closed‑loop robustness on the CARLA Longest6 benchmark across various degradation scenarios.

The paper introduces TempLoc, a Temporal‑aware Localization framework that improves outdoor LiDAR relocalization by leveraging spatio‑temporal consistency across scans. It first predicts point‑wise global coordinates with uncertainties, then estimates inter‑frame correspondences using an attention‑based Prior Coordinate Generation module, and finally fuses these predictions in an uncertainty‑guided manner to produce a more accurate global 6‑DoF pose. Experiments on the NCLT and Oxford RobotCar datasets show that TempLoc significantly outperforms existing state‑of‑the‑art methods.
