Mechanistic Interpretability-Guided Selective Fine-Tuning of Vision-Language Models for Centimeter-Level Flood Depth Estimation

arXiv:2608. 07562v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Urban flooding poses an escalating threat to transportation infrastructure, yet no operational system provides real-time, street-level flood-depth estimates at centimeter resolution.

TongGuOCR: A Layout-Aware and Token-Augmented OCR Framework for Chinese Historical Documents

arXiv:2608. 07917v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chinese historical documents preserve valuable cultural heritage, but many collections remain accessible only as scanned page images, preventing full-text retrieval, collation, and computational analysis.

Beyond Isotropic Assumptions: Continuity-Constrained Segmentation and GPU Morphometry for Nanoscale GBM Analysis

arXiv:2608. 07575v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Confocal microscopy of optically cleared and swelled tissue resolves complex biological structures in 3D, but such acquisitions are highly anisotropic: along the under-sampled axial direction the structure can appear discontinuous, hampering reconstruction and automated quantitative analysis.

GeoSeg-OV: Bridging Geospatial Gaps with Structural Guidance for Open-Vocabulary Remote Sensing Segmentation

Open-vocabulary remote sensing segmentation has recently emerged as a promising paradigm that enables pixel-level recognition of arbitrary categories specified by natural language, including classes unseen during training. However, geospatial domain shifts caused by heterogeneous regions, spatial resolutions, and acquisition platforms weaken visual-text matching and limit cross-dataset generalization.

TriView-YOLO: Early Multi-View Fusion for Ground Penetrating Radar Cavity Detection in Soft, High-Water-Content Soils

Automated detection of subsurface cavities from Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is most difficult in soft, high-water-content ground, where conductive, water-saturated soil attenuates the signal and degrades cavity reflections, yet this is also the condition under which cavities most readily form. This paper proposes TriView-YOLO, a multi-view YOLOv12 detector for road cavity screening in such ground.

GeoPhysAdapter: Scale-Matched Geophysical Adaptation for Cross-Domain Landslide Mapping with Vision Foundation Models

Newly triggered landslides rarely carry immediate annotations, so cross-domain transferability determines the value of landslide mapping for emergency response and regional risk assessment. Vision foundation models have strengthened representational transfer, yet on unseen regions, events, and data sources they still generate high-confidence false alarms.

Representation-driven Endoscopic Visual Embedding Alignment for Latent Generation

arXiv:2608. 07176v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Developing foundation generative models for endoscopy is limited by the gap between natural and clinical images and the computational cost of training large Diffusion Transformers.
