arXiv:2601. 12507v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-resolution remote sensing small object detection is limited by both missing visual details and the ambiguity of how details serve detection.
Infrared small target detection (IRSTD) remains challenging due to tiny target size, low signal-to-noise ratio, severe foreground-background imbalance, and blurred boundaries in complex scenes. Existing methods usually rely on post-activation probability-domain supervision for discrimination, where weak targets and strong clutter may produce saturated and close probabilities, limiting weak-target discrimination.
arXiv:2606. 30215v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: RGB-T detectors leverage the complementary strengths of visible and thermal infrared modalities, achieving robust performance under challenging conditions.
Infrared small target detection (IRSTD) is important for low-altitude perception, unmanned-system warning, and security monitoring. However, weak targets in infrared imagery usually occupy only a few pixels and are easily submerged by cloud clutter, ground edges, and bright noise, making it difficult for lightweight segmentation-based methods to preserve local target structures while suppressing background interference.
arXiv:2606. 23825v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Efficient small object detection is bottlenecked by the inherent feature scarcity of tiny targets, which is further aggravated by operations of spatial-domain detectors that indiscriminately discard critical high-frequency details.
arXiv:2607. 04603v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Infrared small target detection (IRSTD) aims to identify long distance small targets from complex infrared backgrounds, and is a fundamental task in remote sensing.
