HyperSAM is a promptable foundation model for hyperspectral remote sensing that integrates a data‑centric synthesis pipeline with a spectral adaptation architecture based on Segment Anything Model 3 (SAM3). The model generates full‑spectrum hyperspectral cubes from high‑resolution multispectral imagery using a physics‑informed abundance‑transfer generator, and employs SAM3‑derived pseudo‑masks for object‑centric supervision. With a frozen SAM3 RGB branch, a trainable hyperspectral encoder, ControlNet‑style feature injection, and a mixture‑of‑experts mask refiner, HyperSAM demonstrates strong generalization across diverse hyperspectral tasks such as classification, anomaly detection, change detection, target detection, and airborne oil‑spill mapping.

The paper introduces TSR-ITNR, a two‑stage, self‑supervised framework for hyperspectral image super‑resolution that fuses high‑resolution multispectral and low‑resolution hyperspectral data. Stage 1 refines an implicit Tucker representation using a low‑rank spatial tensor and spectral basis, enhanced by a pretrained denoiser, to capture fine spatial details and spectral correlations. Stage 2 applies parameter‑free calibration to extract complementary corrections from both observations, preserving geometry and ensuring orthogonal complementarity, leading to superior reconstruction quality demonstrated on benchmark datasets and improved downstream segmentation performance.

The paper presents the first publicly available hyperspectral imaging (HSI) dataset of shredded black plastics from end‑of‑life vehicle waste, covering four industrial polymers across RGB, VNIR, SWIR, and MWIR modalities. It introduces a multi‑modal spectral‑spatial framework that combines foreground isolation, pixel‑wise classification, and object‑level majority voting, leveraging hyperspectral transformers and chemometric band selection to accurately classify complex black plastics. The study benchmarks nine processing methods—including chemometric, machine learning, and deep learning architectures—providing a reproducible, comprehensive benchmark for industrial hyperspectral object analysis.

The paper presents an agentic framework that uses a large vision‑language model to refine hyperspectral unmixing results from existing modular pipelines. By iteratively gathering spectral and spatial evidence through tools such as spectral‑library retrieval and abundance‑map visualization, the agent merges or discards endmembers and re‑estimates abundances. Experiments on HYDICE Urban, Jasper Ridge, and Stonewall Playa datasets show consistent improvements in endmember cardinality and overall decomposition quality across multiple pipelines, while remaining competitive with end‑to‑end methods.

AGSA-Net is a hyperspectral image classification framework that incorporates spectral unmixing priors through an abundance-guided self‑attention network. It first estimates physically meaningful subpixel abundance maps with non‑negativity and sum‑to‑one constraints, then uses these abundances to build an affinity prior that directs a spectral transformer to focus on class‑discriminative interactions. The transformer features are fused with compact abundance descriptors for final classification, and experiments on Indian Pines, Augsburg, and Berlin datasets show improved performance, especially in heterogeneous urban scenes.
