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

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

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.

HyperSAM: A Promptable Foundation Model for Hyperspectral Remote Sensing

HyperSAM is a promptable foundation model for hyperspectral remote sensing that integrates a data‑centric synthesis pipeline with a spectral adaptation architecture based on Segment Anything Model 3 (SAM3). The model generates full‑spectrum hyperspectral cubes from high‑resolution multispectral imagery using a physics‑informed abundance‑transfer generator, and employs SAM3‑derived pseudo‑masks for object‑centric supervision. With a frozen SAM3 RGB branch, a trainable hyperspectral encoder, ControlNet‑style feature injection, and a mixture‑of‑experts mask refiner, HyperSAM demonstrates strong generalization across diverse hyperspectral tasks such as classification, anomaly detection, change detection, target detection, and airborne oil‑spill mapping.

Hyperspectral Image Models: Technical Report

The technical report introduces Hyperspectral Image Models, a modular framework that unifies 55 deep‑learning models across six paradigms for hyperspectral remote sensing. It standardizes tensor conventions, evaluation protocols, and dataset handling, integrating 24 benchmark scenes from various sensors and providing tools to avoid train‑test overlap. Experiments across 1,320 model‑scene combinations show that scene difficulty outweighs architecture, with no single paradigm dominating and small models achieving performance comparable to much larger ones.

Exploring the Potential of Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training for Multi-Source Remote Sensing Data

The paper introduces OmniRSCLIP, an end‑to‑end contrastive learning framework that extends the CLIP architecture to handle heterogeneous remote sensing sensors such as SAR, multi‑spectral imaging, and hyperspectral imaging. It achieves this by employing Spectral‑Spatial Basis Decomposition to adapt arbitrary‑channel inputs without losing pretrained visual knowledge, and a spectral‑context‑aware mask‑based contrastive learning scheme to improve fine‑grained image‑text alignment. The authors also build OmniRS5M, a large‑scale image‑text corpus covering multiple sensor modalities, and demonstrate that OmniRSCLIP maintains strong RGB performance while effectively supporting these diverse remote sensing data types.
