The paper introduces NWPU-Refer, the largest bilingual dataset for referring remote sensing image segmentation, featuring 15,003 high‑resolution images from over 30 countries and 49,745 annotated targets. It also proposes the Multi‑scale Referring Segmentation Network (MRSNet), which uses an Intra‑scale Feature Interaction Module to refine fine‑grained features and a Hierarchical Feature Interaction Module to fuse cross‑scale information while preserving spatial structure. Experiments on NWPU‑Refer and RRSIS‑D show that MRSNet achieves strong, competitive performance, especially under strict IoU thresholds, demonstrating the effectiveness of both the new dataset and the model.

The paper presents a two‑pipeline framework for retinal fundus analysis that combines four‑class disease classification with vessel segmentation. It fine‑tunes eight ImageNet‑pretrained CNNs on the FIVES dataset, applies five gradient‑based explanation methods to assess model interpretability, and benchmarks ten U‑Net variants—including transformer‑based and attention‑enhanced architectures—on the FIVES and DRIVE datasets. The best classification results come from ResNet101 (94.17% accuracy), while the strongest segmentation performance is achieved by Attention U‑Net with a ResNet101V2 backbone, improving DRIVE IoU from 60.80% to 64.83%.
The paper introduces Feature Interaction Network (FINE), a lightweight semantic alignment module for feature fusion networks in object detectors. FINE refines low‑level features using high‑level contextual guidance through cross‑level attention, and employs Alignment‑Aware Token Sampling to reduce attention complexity. The resulting spatial‑channel modulation map selectively enhances semantically relevant pixels while preserving sub‑pixel localization, leading to improved detection accuracy with minimal computational overhead.

FoRIS is a training‑free in‑context segmentation framework that refines foreground masks through a coarse‑to‑fine process. It operates in three stages—Foreground Purification, Localization, and Consolidation—to suppress background noise, pinpoint target regions, and reconstruct complete foreground structures. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance, improving mIoU by 4.5 and 4.8 points in 1‑shot and 5‑shot settings respectively.
MIMONet is a saliency detection model that uses multi‑scale inputs and outputs to better handle objects of varying sizes. It processes three differently sized images through separate encoder branches that exchange information, allowing each branch to learn size‑variation knowledge from the others. A Multi‑scale Perception module further refines features, and a Joint Saliency Loss ensures consistent, well‑preserved boundaries across the multiple saliency maps produced.
