The paper proposes a weakly supervised remote sensing change detection method that uses change captions as the sole supervision signal, eliminating the need for pixel‑level change masks. It introduces a caption‑driven generation pipeline to create bi‑temporal image pairs with controlled changes and a Semantic‑Appearance Agreement Framework (SAAF) that fuses caption‑grounded semantic responses with RGB differences for accurate change localization. Experiments on the Flair‑RSGen and WHU‑CDC datasets demonstrate that SAAF outperforms existing limited‑supervision baselines in macro‑averaged IoU and F1 metrics.

The paper introduces OVRSISBench, a unified benchmark for open‑vocabulary remote sensing image segmentation, and evaluates existing OVS/OVRSIS models, uncovering their shortcomings in remote sensing contexts. Leveraging insights from this evaluation, the authors propose RSKT‑Seg, a new framework featuring a Multi‑Directional Cost Map Aggregation module, an Efficient Cost Map Fusion transformer, and a Remote Sensing Knowledge Transfer module. Experiments on the benchmark demonstrate that RSKT‑Seg outperforms strong baselines by +3.8 mIoU and +5.9 mACC while achieving twice the inference speed.
