The core challenge of heterogeneous change detection in remote sensing imagery lies in effectively decoupling genuine land-cover changes from significant modal disparities caused by distinct imaging mechanisms. These intrinsic inconsistencies are prone to introducing pseudo-changes, thereby constraining detection accuracy.

DPSF-Net is a dual‑prior spatial‑frequency network designed for real‑world remote sensing image dehazing. It combines hazy RGB images with dark channel prior maps as joint inputs, and incorporates a spatial‑frequency residual interaction block, a prior‑guided feature attention module, and a selective kernel complementary fusion module to reduce colour shift, structural distortion, and large‑scale haze. Experiments show that DPSF-Net achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on the RRSHID benchmark while maintaining a favorable balance of restoration quality, parameter count, and computational complexity.

The paper introduces SASC-USOD, a framework for underwater salient object detection that learns spatially adaptive coordination between two structural representations: a boundary-sensitive representation using Laplacian filtering and a region-coherent representation via dual-range anisotropic large-kernel aggregation. A spatial coordination module estimates the relative reliability of these representations and adaptively blends them based on image content. Experiments on USOD10K and USOD benchmarks show that SASC-USOD outperforms existing methods, reducing MAE by 4.07% and 23.53% respectively, and its lightweight variant achieves 21 FPS on an NVIDIA Jetson TX2 NX.

CoralscapesV2 is an expanded dataset for coral reef visual scene understanding, increasing the number of fine‑grained classes from 39 to 95 and adding 65,000 exhaustive fish instance masks. It supports panoptic segmentation by providing high‑quality semantic and instance labels across diverse, unconstrained reef imagery. The dataset serves as a challenging benchmark for modern segmentation models and enables broader applications such as benthic cover mapping and automated fish‑reef interaction analysis.

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.

The paper introduces BMT, a unified hierarchical Vision Transformer that jointly performs SAR-to-optical image translation and semantic segmentation. It incorporates a LocalViTBlock, an enhanced output module, a ControlNet-style conditional injection, and a bounded Kendall uncertainty weighting scheme to balance the two tasks. Experiments on paired and unpaired datasets demonstrate competitive performance in both translation quality and segmentation accuracy.
