The paper presents M2Heat, a physics-inspired framework for fusing hyperspectral and LiDAR data in land‑cover classification. It introduces a visual heat conduction module (vHeat) and Frequency Value Embeddings (FVEs) to model anisotropic information flow, capturing global dependencies with sub‑quadratic complexity. Combined with a Cross‑Frequency Fusion (CFF) module, M2Heat delivers discriminative, robust features and achieves competitive performance on Trento, Houston2013, and Augsburg benchmarks while offering an interpretable heat‑conduction perspective.

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 data from different sensors provides rich complementary information for 3D perception, becoming an essential component in reliable autonomous driving systems. Current research typically designs intricate and complex fusion strategies to integrate information from multimodal data on a unified bird's-eye-view (BEV) feature map for the joint learning of multiple perception tasks.

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.
