Sensor-Conditioned Representation Learning via Scene-Relevant Observation Quotients

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 16210v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learned representations in intelligent sensing systems are often evaluated by reconstruction fidelity or downstream prediction accuracy, but these criteria do not specify which latent distinctions are justified by the sensing process.

Learning Spatial-Spectral Refinement and Calibrating Complementary Observations for Hyperspectral Image Super-Resolution

The paper introduces TSR-ITNR, a two‑stage, self‑supervised framework for hyperspectral image super‑resolution that fuses high‑resolution multispectral and low‑resolution hyperspectral data. Stage 1 refines an implicit Tucker representation using a low‑rank spatial tensor and spectral basis, enhanced by a pretrained denoiser, to capture fine spatial details and spectral correlations. Stage 2 applies parameter‑free calibration to extract complementary corrections from both observations, preserving geometry and ensuring orthogonal complementarity, leading to superior reconstruction quality demonstrated on benchmark datasets and improved downstream segmentation performance.

Rethinking the Information Bottleneck: Structured Decomposition under Label-Induced Partitions

The paper proposes a structured version of the Information Bottleneck (IB) that separates label-relevant structure from within-condition variation using a dual-bottleneck formulation. It introduces a conditional KL term that targets within-condition information, allowing explicit control over nuisance-like variation in learned representations. Experiments demonstrate improved performance in low-data classification and consistent gains on dense prediction tasks.

MEOX: Compact Multimodal Mixture-of-Experts for Earth Observation

MEOX is a compact multimodal masked autoencoder designed for Earth Observation that uses a 2.939 million‑parameter encoder and 3.115 million total parameters. It incorporates sensor‑specific adapters, explicit validity signals, and a shared sparse‑expert block to maintain modality‑dependent processing before a learned patch‑wise fusion, followed by fourteen encoder blocks that process a single spatial sequence with four metadata tokens. Pretrained on 1.228 million MMEarth64 samples, MEOX achieves strong performance on GEO‑Bench tasks, surpassing prior CSMoE results, and demonstrates effective sensor‑flexible representation learning with a modest parameter budget.
