The paper examines RGB‑infrared fusion for binary wildfire segmentation using UAV imagery on the FLAME3 dataset. It compares RGB and infrared baselines with three fusion strategies across U‑Net, DeepLabV3+, and SegFormer architectures. Results show thermal data dominates segmentation performance, and feature‑level fusion with transformer‑based models yields the best results.

In this study, UAV multispectral imagery is used to segment the severity of bacterial leaf blight (BLB) in rice using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformer-based models. The evaluated architectures include U-Net with a ResNet- 101 encoder, U-Net++ with EfficientNet-B3 and EfficientNetB7, DeepLabV3+, and SegFormer, all trained under a common pipeline with three input configurations (multispectral only, multispectral+NDVI, and multispectral+NDRE).
The paper investigates Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) in Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) imagery, comparing modern convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformer-based deep neural networks (DNNs). It examines how factors such as network size, architecture, pretraining methods, data augmentation, and regularization influence performance, aiming to identify the highest-performing model and provide a training roadmap for state‑of‑the‑art SAS‑ATR systems.
