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.

The paper introduces a multimodal foundation model for lunar remote sensing, trained from scratch on SomBench—a dataset of nearly two million co‑registered tile bundles across 11 modalities at 1 m and 100 m resolutions. The model extends the TerraMind masked‑token architecture with lunar‑specific features such as explicit acquisition geometry and joint training of two spatial scales, and employs FlexiViT patch embeddings for adaptable patch sizes. Evaluation on crater detection, irregular mare patch segmentation, and polar ice prospectivity regression shows that the pretrained model matches or surpasses ImageNet‑pretrained baselines, with notable label efficiency and effective adaptation via LoRA.

The technical report introduces Hyperspectral Image Models, a modular framework that unifies 55 deep‑learning models across six paradigms for hyperspectral remote sensing. It standardizes tensor conventions, evaluation protocols, and dataset handling, integrating 24 benchmark scenes from various sensors and providing tools to avoid train‑test overlap. Experiments across 1,320 model‑scene combinations show that scene difficulty outweighs architecture, with no single paradigm dominating and small models achieving performance comparable to much larger ones.
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.
