Multi-modality image fusion (MMIF) enhances scene representation by exploiting complementary cues from different modalities. Adverse weather, however, causes significant image degradation, disrupting feature representation and requiring simultaneous feature restoration and cross-modal complementarity.
RoES is a Rotational Equivariant Selective-frequency fusion network that dynamically separates low- and high-frequency components of infrared-visible images. It uses a trainable rotation-enhanced updater to decouple frequencies, then fuses them with a dual-branch module: a rotation-equivariant Mamba for low-frequency structural dependencies and a polar spectral attention Dual-Fourier block for high-frequency detail refinement. Experiments show RoES outperforms existing methods in fusion quality and downstream object detection, offering a robust multimodal fusion solution.

RA‑SOD is a new RGB‑Thermal salient object detection framework that explicitly models the reliability of each modality. It introduces a reliability‑conditioned representation, an uncertainty‑guided dual‑stream refinement, and a pixel‑wise modality competition mechanism to adaptively compensate degraded features and suppress unreliable evidence. Experiments on four benchmarks show that RA‑SOD achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance and remains robust under severe modality degradation.

Infrared-visible image fusion (IVIF) is pivotal for multimodal perception, yet reconciling the inherent information disparity between thermal and textural features remains a fundamental challenge. Existing prior-guided methods often rely on static constraints that induce optimization conflicts or utilize extrinsic semantic priors from large-scale foundation models (e.

Controllable infrared-visible image fusion aims to integrate complementary thermal and structural information with flexible region-aware modulation, producing fused images that adapt to diverse user requirements and downstream tasks. However, existing methods typically rely on predefined discrete control conditions, leading to a sparse space that fails to support fine-grained modulation demands.
Restoring high-fidelity remote sensing imagery from extreme low-light degradation is indispensable for reliable Earth observation and downstream machine vision. However, under severe noise and illumination corruption, existing methods suffer from attention drift, erroneously aggregating features across distinct physical boundaries and causing severe structural blurring and color distortion.
End-to-end multimodal driving has progressed rapidly by fusing camera and LiDAR streams. Existing pipelines remain fragile under asymmetric sensor degradation, where either an entire modality or only...
