RegCL: Compact Continual SAM Adaptation for Visual Grounding in Multi-Sensorial Media

RegCL is a non‑replay continual learning framework that adapts the Segment Anything Model (SAM) for visual grounding across evolving multi‑sensorial media domains. It consolidates domain‑specific segmentation knowledge into a single lightweight SAM adapter by incrementally merging LoRA‑style AugModules and preserving compact historical feature statistics. Experiments on five heterogeneous datasets demonstrate that RegCL retains performance while adapting to new domains, outperforming other non‑replay continual learning and merging baselines.

Few-shot Classification as Multi-instance Verification: Effective Backbone-agnostic Transfer across Domains

The paper proposes treating few-shot classification as a series of multiple instance verification (MIV) tasks, enabling effective transfer across domains without fine-tuning the backbone. It introduces the MIV-head, a backbone‑agnostic, computationally efficient classification head that achieves competitive accuracy on cross‑domain few‑shot image classification using frozen, pre‑trained backbones. Experiments on an extended Meta‑Dataset benchmark show that the MIV-head outperforms state‑of‑the‑art adapter methods while incurring lower adaptation cost.

OptiSAR-Net++: A Large-Scale Benchmark and Transformer-Free Framework for Cross-Domain Remote Sensing Visual Grounding

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.

ASFR-Net: Adversarial Alignment and Spatio-Frequency Refinement Network for Heterogeneous Remote Sensing Image Change Detection

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.

PDA++: Field-Aligned Planning and Scene-Adaptive Insertion in Remote Sensing

PDA++ is a unified, environment‑aware object insertion framework for remote sensing imagery that improves few‑shot and long‑tail recognition. It operates in three stages: Planning, which selects scene‑compatible poses using an affordance field; Decoupling, which conditions the background on pose to preserve object identity while adapting to the scene; and Assimilation, which aligns multi‑scale texture distributions via optimal transport to enhance local coherence. The method achieves a whole‑image FID of 6.28 and boosts average few‑shot recognition mAP50 by 17.69 points on optical data, while also improving ship detection on SAR imagery and maintaining performance under cross‑dataset transfer and amorphous‑target insertion.

HyperVision: A Channel-Adaptive Ground-Based Hyperspectral Vision Pre-trained Backbone

HyperVision introduces the first ground‑based hyperspectral pre‑trained backbone, addressing challenges of varying spectral configurations, limited annotations, and dataset diversity. It employs a channel‑adaptive dynamic embedding to unify heterogeneous inputs, a multi‑source pseudo‑labeling strategy combining SAM2 spatial cues with HyperFree spectral details, and cross‑modal knowledge distillation from a pre‑trained RGB vision model. Trained on 15k images from 26 datasets, HyperVision achieves significant improvements—up to 16.3% relative gain in hyperspectral semantic segmentation, 2.1% in object tracking AUC, and 35.5% reduction in salient object detection MAE—while requiring only head‑only adaptation.

A Real-Calibrated Synthetic-First Data Engine

The paper introduces the Real‑Calibrated Synthetic‑First Data Engine, a modular pipeline that integrates controllable diffusion‑based synthetic image generation with multi‑stage curation, filtering, and optional uncertainty‑driven selection and human verification. Designed as a CLI‑based framework, it allows independent configuration of generation, filtering, selection, and validation modules to enhance reproducibility and flexibility in real‑world data workflows. Empirical tests on human pose estimation demonstrate that synthetic data can boost a real‑data baseline when used as low‑cost augmentation, though synthetic‑only training still lags behind real‑only performance, underscoring the importance of data‑centric orchestration in low‑data regimes.

FuseAdapt: Parameter-Efficient Multimodal Fusion for Semantic Segmentation with Missing Modalities

FuseAdapt is a parameter‑efficient framework for multimodal semantic segmentation that performs fusion within the adaptation space of a frozen vision foundation model (VFM). Instead of a separate fusion network, each modality receives a lightweight adaptation branch, and only low‑rank residual activations are routed across modalities inside the frozen backbone. The method also introduces Predictive Modality Modeling (PMM) to handle missing modalities during training, achieving significant mIoU gains on three benchmarks.
