arXiv:2606. 23825v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Efficient small object detection is bottlenecked by the inherent feature scarcity of tiny targets, which is further aggravated by operations of spatial-domain detectors that indiscriminately discard critical high-frequency details.

OptiSAR-Net++ introduces a new cross‑domain remote sensing visual grounding task (CD‑RSVG) and the first large‑scale benchmark dataset, OptSAR‑RSVG. The framework replaces Transformer decoding with a CLIP‑based contrastive approach, employing a patch‑level Low‑Rank Adaptation Mixture of Experts for efficient cross‑domain feature decoupling and a text‑guided dual‑gate fusion module for improved semantic‑visual alignment. Experiments show state‑of‑the‑art performance on OptSAR‑RSVG and DIOR‑RSVG, with notable gains in localization accuracy and computational efficiency.

SCMerge is a training‑free token merging technique for Vision Transformers that jointly considers feature similarity and spatial consistency when pairing tokens. The merged tokens are processed within the encoder and later reconstructed onto the original patch grid during decoding. Experiments on ADE20K, Pascal Context, and Cityscapes demonstrate that SCMerge improves the balance between segmentation accuracy and computational efficiency compared to existing methods.

arXiv:2606. 31834v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-world detectors for autonomous driving, surveillance, and robotics must handle domain-shifts under strict latency and memory constraints, yet existing source-free object detection (SFOD) methods rely on heavyweight architectures that prioritize accuracy alone.

The paper introduces TSDA-Track, a Template-Search Domain Adaptation framework designed to reduce modality gaps in cross‑modal visual object tracking. Two variants are explored: Pre‑AFA TSDA‑Track uses adversarial alignment before transformer interaction, while Enc‑CFA TSDA‑Track applies contrastive alignment after interaction to strengthen cross‑modal correspondence. Experiments on datasets such as LasHeR, RGBT234, GTOT, and Anti‑UAV‑024 show that both variants outperform state‑of‑the‑art trackers, with Pre‑AFA achieving an SR/PR of 43.2/56.0 on RGBT234 under the modality‑switch protocol.

The paper reviews domain generalization (DG) for object detection, highlighting its scarcity and unique challenges such as localization and multi-scale representation. It examines synthetic data from three angles: as an enabler that diversifies and aligns training data, as a probe that allows controlled experiments to uncover failure modes, and as a source of a synthetic‑to‑real gap that hampers deployment on real imagery. The authors conclude that future DG research must develop representation‑aware methods that explicitly address both localization and classification under domain shift.
