The paper introduces FlexibleFusion, a method for infrared-visible object detection that adapts to both complete and missing-modality scenarios. It employs a Modality-Aware Experts Collaboration mechanism to selectively fuse cross-modal or intra-modal pathways, and a Residual Self-Paced Entropic Optimal Transport module to align heterogeneous feature distributions without heavy optimization. Experiments demonstrate consistent performance across various modality configurations.

Infrared-visible image fusion (IVIF) is pivotal for multimodal perception, yet reconciling the inherent information disparity between thermal and textural features remains a fundamental challenge. Existing prior-guided methods often rely on static constraints that induce optimization conflicts or utilize extrinsic semantic priors from large-scale foundation models (e.
RoES is a Rotational Equivariant Selective-frequency fusion network that dynamically separates low- and high-frequency components of infrared-visible images. It uses a trainable rotation-enhanced updater to decouple frequencies, then fuses them with a dual-branch module: a rotation-equivariant Mamba for low-frequency structural dependencies and a polar spectral attention Dual-Fourier block for high-frequency detail refinement. Experiments show RoES outperforms existing methods in fusion quality and downstream object detection, offering a robust multimodal fusion solution.
Multi-modality image fusion (MMIF) enhances scene representation by exploiting complementary cues from different modalities. Adverse weather, however, causes significant image degradation, disrupting feature representation and requiring simultaneous feature restoration and cross-modal complementarity.
