RouteGraph-Mona: Confusion-Aware Routing Fine-Tuning for Mineral Image Classification

RouteGraph-Mona introduces a confusion‑aware routing fine‑tuning approach for mineral image classification, building on the Mona visual adapter. It replaces Mona’s static multi‑scale aggregation with sample‑adaptive routing, creating a compact routing space that reflects each image’s scale preferences. The method regularizes routing signatures using class‑wise route anchors and confusion‑weighted margins, encouraging consistent routing patterns and greater separation between visually similar mineral categories. Experiments on three public mineral image datasets with two visual backbones show that RouteGraph‑Mona consistently outperforms Mona and remains competitive with other fine‑tuning methods and classification baselines.

When Generated Images Look Right and Retrieve Wrong: Coverage-Guided Cross-Scale Re-Indexing for Knowledge-Faithful Generative Perception

arXiv:2608. 20810v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal information systems increasingly route generated visual content back through the same vision-language index that informed its production, so the output must remain retrievable by the queries it was meant to serve.

When Images Look Right and Retrieve Wrong: Coverage-Guided Cross-Scale Re-Indexing for Knowledge-Faithful Generative Perception

The paper introduces CERES, a closed‑loop multimodal indexing framework that addresses semantic collapse in multimodal generation by building a three‑level semantic pyramid and using scale‑routed cross‑attention to generate images that remain retrievable by their original queries. CERES employs a co‑occurrence‑aware router, a lightweight U‑Net generator, and a soft‑Jaccard coverage objective to ensure generated images cover the intended concepts, verified by re‑indexing with a frozen vision‑language model and an external DINOv2 probe. Experiments on four pansharpening benchmarks show state‑of‑the‑art performance, especially under extreme scale variation, and significant improvements in concept‑query retrieval and image‑text ranking metrics.

GrabVG: Graph-Attentive Binding for Visual Grounding in UAV Imagery

GrabVG is a visual grounding framework for UAV imagery that tackles the challenges of small, densely packed, and visually similar objects by separating the task into preattentive hypothesis search and graph-attentive feature binding. It first generates a compact set of reliable object hypotheses using distillation-guided proposal induction and text-aware filtering, then constructs a sparse graph where language-guided visual cues and inter-instance topological relationships are jointly bound and propagated via graph attention. Experiments on AerialVG and AerialSense demonstrate that GrabVG achieves a strong accuracy–speed trade‑off, reaching 67.31% and 80.34% Acc@0.5 and outperforming baselines by 10.55 and 8.76 percentage points.

GrabVG: Graph-Attentive Binding for Visual Grounding in UAV Imagery

GrabVG is a visual grounding framework for UAV imagery that tackles the challenges of small, densely packed, and visually similar objects. It splits the task into preattentive hypothesis search and graph‑attentive feature binding, using distillation‑guided proposals and a sparse graph to capture intra‑ and inter‑instance relationships. Experiments on AerialVG and AerialSense show that GrabVG achieves higher accuracy and speed, outperforming baselines by significant margins.

MAViE: A Multi-scale Adaptive Vision Encoder for Fine-grained Visual Perception and Efficient Multimodal Reasoning

Vision-language models commonly project all tokens produced by a pretrained vision encoder into a large language model. However, final-layer features can discard text, local attributes, and spatial relationships, while high-resolution inputs substantially increase context length and inference latency.
