LoRA Enhanced Contrastive Learning with SAS Vision Transformers

The paper presents a three‑stage, parameter‑efficient approach to improve automatic target recognition (ATR) with synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) data by adapting DINOv3 Vision Transformers. Stage 1 applies Low‑Rank Adaptation (LoRA) while freezing the backbone, which significantly boosts the area under the precision‑recall curve from 0.300 to 0.679. Subsequent hard‑negative mining and supervised contrastive learning stages show negligible impact, indicating that a single LoRA adaptation is sufficient for effective underwater ATR.

Multi-Scale ViT Inference with Habitat-Fit Priors and kNN Retrieval for Multi-Species Plant Identification

arXiv:2607. 14509v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper describes DS@GT ARC's third-place solution to the PlantCLEF 2026 challenge on multi-species plant identification in vegetation quadrat images, where systems must predict every species present in high-resolution (~3000 x 3000 pixel) plot photographs while training only on single-label images of individual plants.
