The paper introduces Self‑Evolutionary CLIP (SE‑CLIP), a semi‑supervised framework that adapts vision‑language models like CLIP to satellite imagery. SE‑CLIP uses a two‑phase pipeline: an initial warm‑up on a small set of annotated seeds followed by a recursive discovery phase that iteratively selects high‑confidence samples from unlabeled data. A class‑balanced selection strategy is applied to keep the evolving support set balanced, and experiments on the UCM and NWPU benchmarks show that SE‑CLIP outperforms existing semi‑supervised methods.
arXiv:2601. 11670v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pseudo-label selection in semi-supervised learning is commonly driven by maximum-confidence thresholds, yet confidence alone can be unreliable under model overconfidence and class imbalance.
The paper demonstrates that object detection benchmarks suffer from incomplete annotations, with re-annotation of COCO, Pascal VOC, Cityscapes, and KITTI revealing up to a 60% increase in detected objects, especially small, occluded, or densely packed instances. The authors propose a scalable annotation pipeline that uses multiple annotators per object to capture uncertainty and improve recall, and they introduce two new large-scale benchmarks: an uncertainty-aware detection benchmark and a label error detection benchmark based on real errors. Their findings show that benchmark performance is highly sensitive to annotation quality, yet model rankings remain largely unchanged, highlighting the need for uncertainty-aware evaluation to better reflect real-world ambiguity.
