Spatio-temporal PV data are essential for understanding adoption processes in off-grid regions, yet such data remain largely unavailable. Automated segmentation of remote sensing (RS) imagery offers a promising solution; yet, residential PV systems remain challenging targets because of their small size and sparse distribution, resulting in severe target-background imbalance.
Rapid advancements in vision-language models have propelled Referring Remote Sensing Image Segmentation (RRSIS) to the forefront of Earth observation. However, practical deployments suffer severe perf...

The paper introduces VPRef, the first cross‑domain benchmark for Referring Remote Sensing Image Segmentation, containing 46,972 language‑image‑annotation triplets with a three‑tier linguistic hierarchy. It proposes a parameter‑efficient adaptation method based on the Segment Anything Model and Low‑Rank Adaptation, using pseudo‑label self‑training for visual drift and random multi‑granularity prompt mixing for textual drift. Experiments show the approach improves cross‑domain segmentation while altering only 1.08 % of the base model’s parameters, offering a strong baseline for future research.

arXiv:2607. 22205v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Remote sensing multimodal large language models (RS-MLLMs) have improved general aerial-image understanding.
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.
The paper introduces AeroBelief, a dual‑layer semantic‑spatial belief mapping framework for aerial object goal navigation. It separates broad contextual plausibility (intuition layer) from target‑specific evidence (evidence layer) and fuses them into persistent spatial belief hotspots. The method also employs object‑conditioned visual reasoning and egocentric regional guidance, achieving state‑of‑the‑art success rates on the UAV‑ON benchmark.
