C‑DiffSET is a SAR‑to‑EO image translation framework that uses a pretrained Latent Diffusion Model to adapt SAR imagery to the EO domain. The method exploits the pretrained VAE encoder’s ability to map SAR and EO images into a shared latent space, even when SAR inputs contain varying noise levels. A confidence‑guided diffusion loss further improves pixel‑wise fidelity by reducing artifacts such as appearing or disappearing objects, leading to state‑of‑the‑art results across multiple datasets.

Most existing deep learning-based PET image denoising methods assume a fixed and known dose reduction factor (DRF) for low-dose PET images. However, these methods encounter significant performance degradation when the DRF varies beyond the assumed one in practical applications.

arXiv:2602. 21987v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-dose CT images are essential for reducing radiation exposure in cancer screening, pediatric imaging, and longitudinal monitoring protocols, but their quality is often degraded by noise from low-dose acquisition, patient motion, or scanner limitations, affecting both clinical interpretation and downstream analysis.

We introduce the neural echo as a tool for understanding the behavior of neural networks. It generalizes the model-based concepts of impulse responses, diffusion echoes, and filter echoes to learning-based methods.
arXiv:2607. 22725v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Data augmentation is routinely used to improve generalization in image classification, but the assumptions underlying standard policies are poorly matched to coherent imaging.

ProSR is a new method for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) super‑resolution that treats the task as a discrete token prediction problem in a quantized latent space. By mapping SAR signal features to discrete scattering primitives and using a self‑supervised backbone to extract label‑free semantic priors, ProSR preserves the impulsive, physically consistent scattering statistics of SAR images. The approach includes Semantic‑Aligned Detail Encoding and a Prototype‑Map‑Guided Attention mechanism, and it has been validated on a large‑scale 0.25 m resolution benchmark from the Umbra Open Dataset, achieving superior visual quality while maintaining essential scattering characteristics.

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.

The paper presents an unsupervised autoencoder that uses a Cohen-Daubechies-Feauveau (CDF 97) wavelet transform in its latent space to denoise neutron imaging data from inertial confinement fusion experiments. The method targets mixed Gaussian‑Poisson noise, preserving fine details and edges that are crucial for image reconstruction. Benchmarks on simulated and experimental NIF datasets show lower reconstruction error and better edge preservation than conventional filtering techniques such as BM3D.
