MambaMPD is a new segmentation framework that leverages Vision Mamba models for marine pollution detection in remote‑sensing imagery. It introduces two structural priors—Frequency‑Aware Augmentation (FAA) and multi‑scale Edge‑Guided Attention (EGA)—to better capture low‑contrast, fragmented pollution patterns and sharpen boundaries. Experiments on the MADOS and M4D datasets show that MambaMPD outperforms existing methods in mIoU while using far less computation than foundation‑model approaches.

WAVE introduces a multi-level discrete wavelet transform (ML‑DWT) to reverse the typical fine‑to‑coarse bias in guided depth super‑resolution. By consuming wavelet sub‑bands and semantic tokens in reverse order, it separates structure and detail reconstruction, applies semantic gating to high‑frequency bands, and fuses modalities via an invertible coupling mechanism. Experiments on multiple benchmarks show that WAVE matches or outperforms existing methods, especially at high upsampling factors where low‑resolution depth has minimal structure.

The paper introduces AquaOV255, a large-scale underwater segmentation dataset with 255 categories and over 20,000 images, and establishes the UOVSBench benchmark by combining it with five other datasets. It also presents Earth2Ocean, a training‑free open‑vocabulary segmentation framework that adapts terrestrial vision‑language models to underwater scenes using a Geometric‑guided Visual Mask Generator and a Category‑visual Semantic Alignment module. Experiments on UOVSBench show that Earth2Ocean significantly improves performance while keeping inference efficient.

The paper introduces SASC-USOD, a framework for underwater salient object detection that learns spatially adaptive coordination between two structural representations: a boundary-sensitive representation using Laplacian filtering and a region-coherent representation via dual-range anisotropic large-kernel aggregation. A spatial coordination module estimates the relative reliability of these representations and adaptively blends them based on image content. Experiments on USOD10K and USOD benchmarks show that SASC-USOD outperforms existing methods, reducing MAE by 4.07% and 23.53% respectively, and its lightweight variant achieves 21 FPS on an NVIDIA Jetson TX2 NX.

AQUA-Net is a lightweight underwater image enhancement model that fuses spatial, frequency, and illumination information through a residual encoder‑decoder architecture with dual auxiliary branches. The frequency fusion encoder incorporates Fourier‑domain cues to preserve textures and details, while the illumination‑aware decoder applies adaptive exposure correction based on a learned illumination map. Experiments on benchmark datasets and a new high‑resolution Mediterranean Sea video set demonstrate that AQUA-Net achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance with fewer parameters, showing strong generalization and robustness for real‑world underwater imaging.
