C‑DiffSET is a SAR‑to‑EO image translation framework that uses a pretrained Latent Diffusion Model to adapt SAR imagery to the EO domain. The method exploits the pretrained VAE encoder’s ability to map SAR and EO images into a shared latent space, even when SAR inputs contain varying noise levels. A confidence‑guided diffusion loss further improves pixel‑wise fidelity by reducing artifacts such as appearing or disappearing objects, leading to state‑of‑the‑art results across multiple datasets.

The paper proposes a cross‑modal framework that uses a frozen DINOv3 optical vision foundation model to create class‑level prototypes for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) target recognition. By aligning SAR embeddings to these optical prototypes, the SAR model learns to classify SAR images without needing paired optical data. Experiments on the UNICORNv2 dataset show that this prototype alignment improves SAR classification accuracy compared to baseline methods and yields clearer class separation in the embedding space.
SAREO‑FM is a foundation model that separates semantic supervision from reconstruction supervision in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and electro‑optical (EO) imagery. It uses modality tokens for masked reconstruction and learnable semantic queries guided by a pretrained vision foundation model to capture scene content. Trained on the million‑scale SAR‑1M corpus, the model shows strong unimodal transfer for SAR and EO alone and significant improvements when both modalities are combined.
