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.
arXiv:2605. 20301v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In autonomous driving, 3D object detection is essential for accurate perception and reliable decision-making.
Despite the remarkable progress over the past decades, accurately identifying small objects remains challenging because of their insufficient visual cues. Previous works typically attempt to construct discriminative representation of the small objects.
arXiv:2607. 08076v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The complementary information between RGB and IR images can significantly enhance object detection performance under extreme conditions.
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.
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.
LiG-DETR introduces a Global-Local Reassembly framework for aerial object detection that captures high‑fidelity local features before compression and integrates them into a unified end‑to‑end DETR decoder. The method uses a shared encoder to extract both global and locally magnified features, reassembles the local features according to their spatial positions, and employs Context‑Preserved Selective Reassembly and Density‑Aware Adaptive Query Allocation to reduce redundant computation. Experiments demonstrate significant improvements on small and medium objects while maintaining strong performance on large objects, with favorable accuracy–efficiency trade‑offs and better cross‑domain generalization.
FoCal is a new frequency‑oriented framework for aerial RGB–IR object detection that explicitly models cross‑modal interaction across different frequency components. It introduces a Frequency‑Aware Dual‑Domain Calibration module to consolidate low‑frequency structural cues while preserving high‑frequency modality‑specific details, and a Discrepancy‑Guided Spectral Modulation module that adaptively enhances, preserves, or attenuates the joint spectrum based on confidence‑weighted amplitude discrepancies. Experiments on DroneVehicle, ESCVehicle, and ATR‑UMOD show FoCal achieving high mAP scores (83.5%, 54.8%, 64.6%) with only 3.0 M parameters and 113.6 FPS, demonstrating a strong accuracy–efficiency trade‑off.
arXiv:2604. 16936v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Feature reconstruction techniques are widely applied for few-shot fine-grained image classification (FSFGIC).
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.
The paper introduces S$^3$F-Net, a dual‑branch network that fuses spatial and spectral representations for medical image classification. It combines a deep spatial CNN with a shallow spectral encoder, SpectraNet, which uses a learnable SpectralFilter layer to process the full Fourier spectrum efficiently. Evaluated on four medical imaging datasets, S$^3$F-Net consistently outperforms spatial‑only baselines, achieving state‑of‑the‑art accuracy on BRISC2025 and surpassing deeper models on the Chest X‑Ray Pneumonia dataset.
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.
