Semantic segmentation of remote sensing imagery requires models that capture both global context and local detail under tight computational budgets. Prior work typically optimizes for one of these axes: attention for global context, convolution for local detail, or compactness for efficiency.

FreeTransformSR is a lightweight image super‑resolution network that uses a channel‑wise free low‑rank learnable transform to adaptively modulate features with minimal parameters. It adds a local feature modulation branch with depthwise convolution and a soft complexity adaptive module that fuses local convolution and window self‑attention based on texture characteristics. The model also employs an adaptive intensity modulation strategy and achieves competitive PSNR/SSIM on five benchmark datasets while using only 595K parameters and running faster than competing methods.

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 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.
SPEANet is a parameter‑efficient backbone for remote sensing object detection that incorporates fixed structural operators to enhance contour and frequency responses. It uses stage‑specific prior extraction and context‑conditioned response modulation, assigning smoothed contour and directional modeling to shallow features and a compact approximation‑detail interaction to deeper stages. Experiments on five benchmarks, including DOTA‑v1.0, DOTA‑v1.5, and DIOR‑R, show that SPEANet achieves high mAP scores (up to 78.55%) with only 23.0 M total parameters, of which the backbone accounts for 5.97 M.

arXiv:2608. 15647v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic segmentation of very-high-resolution (VHR) remote sensing imagery increasingly benefits from strong pretrained hierarchical encoders, yet exploiting their multi-stage representations remains difficult.
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.
The paper introduces NAIMA, a guided depth super‑resolution framework that leverages global contextual semantic priors from pretrained vision transformer token embeddings. Its Guided Token Attention (GTA) module uses depth encodings as queries to attend over semantic tokens, with a zero‑initialized gate controlling the influence of semantic evidence. NAIMA achieves competitive in‑distribution performance while delivering superior cross‑dataset generalization without relying on decoded priors or auxiliary objectives.
