Video lane detection requires predictions that remain stable across frames, yet severe vehicle occlusions can break temporal cues. In streaming recurrent models, corrupted observations may enter the hidden state and produce errors that persist into later frames. Existing occlusion-aware refinements usually provide obstacle masks as auxiliary inputs, so the state-update path is only indirectly protected. We propose SIGMA-Lane, which treats this failure mode as state contamination in State Space Model (SSM)-based temporal modeling. SIGMA-Lane places occlusion-aware gates on the SSM write and residual-fusion paths, controlling how current observations enter temporal memory and are fused back after temporal propagation. After coordinate-consistent affine alignment, the model combines two complementary paths: SSM-consistent dual-gating for temporal filtering and Structural Spatial Retrieval (SSR) for recovering missing lane structure from aligned historical priors. Experiments on VIL-100 and OpenLane-V show improved temporal stability under heavy occlusion, with competitive F1 and mIoU scores.
Sea surface temperature (SST) is a critical indicator of global climate change, yet satellite-derived SST imagery often suffers from coarse spatial resolution, limiting the ability to capture fine-scale thermal structures such as ocean fronts. To address this, we propose a Dual-Branch State-Displacement Network (DBSD-Net) for SST super-resolution. DBSD-Net adopts a dual-branch architecture: a wavelet frequency branch that explicitly separates low and high-frequency components via discrete wavelet transform for targeted processing, and a VGGUNet branch that extracts multi-scale semantic features from a frozen pre-trained VGG backbone. Within the wavelet branch, we introduce a Structural State Space Module (SSSM) with a Gated Structure Refinement (GSR) unit to efficiently capture long-range dependencies and enhance structural integrity, and a Displacement Gate Module (DGM) that learns a displacement field for geometry-aware modulation of high-frequency details, thereby mitigating spatially varying degradation. Experiments on multiple public SST datasets demonstrate that DBSD-Net outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods.

Polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) image classification is a representative task for physics-aware GeoAI, where land-cover semantics are closely coupled with electromagnetic scattering mechanisms. Many existing complex-valued networks can preserve amplitude-phase information, but they are often limited in long-range spatial dependency modeling and usually incorporate polarimetric priors only as input-level or shallow auxiliary features. As a result, physical knowledge is insufficiently used to guide deep feature evolution. To address this issue, this paper proposes CV-SSMNet, a physics-aware complex-valued state-space network with scattering-aware feature modulation for PolSAR image classification. The proposed method builds a complex-valued state-space model (CV-SSM) in the original complex domain to capture long-range spatial dependencies while preserving polarimetric amplitude-phase coupling. Meanwhile, seven physically meaningful scattering priors, are encoded as FiLM-style modulation signals to adaptively recalibrate complex-valued representations during feature evolution. CV-SSMNet further integrates multi-scale complex convolutions, branch-wise CV-SSM encoding, prior-guided recalibration, and lightweight global context aggregation, enabling physically guided representation learning from local scattering structures to global spatial context. Experiments on three L-band benchmark datasets and an additional P-band BIOMASS evaluation demonstrate that CV-SSMNet achieves competitive accuracy, improved regional consistency, and better boundary preservation, supporting the effectiveness of embedding polarimetric scattering mechanisms into complex-valued long-range GeoAI representation learning.
Weakly-supervised RGB-D Salient Object Detection (SOD) is explored to reduce the heavy burden of pixel-level annotations. But scribble annotations lack the structure and details of objects, resulting in inaccurate saliency maps. In this paper, we propose a novel scribble-supervised RGB-D SOD method, consisting of a Segment Anything Model (SAM)-driven pseudo annotation generation method (\emph{SAM-PAG}) and a state space interaction-based conditional diffusion model (\emph{$S^2$Diff}). Specifically, SAM-PAG is tailored to address the issue of sparse supervision information. In SAM-PAG, we adopt the advanced SAM to expand sparse scribbles to dense pixel-level pseudo annotations through the dual-branch structure and the consistency of segmentation masks. In $S^2$Diff, we adopt the diffusion model to iteratively refine the noisy saliency maps with the guidance of conditional information, generating accurate saliency maps. Naturally, the core of our $S^2$Diff lies in the acquisition of conditional features and the denoising of saliency maps. For the former, we employ a cross-modal conditional generation module to interweave cross-modal features through frequency integration and implicit-explicit state space interaction, effectively achieving global conditional features. For the latter, we employ a context injection module to mitigate noise interference and to enhance object information with the conditional context. With the close cooperation of SAM-PAG and $S^2$Diff, our method outperforms relevant scribble-supervised methods and achieves competitive performance compared to fully-supervised methods on seven datasets. The code and results of our method are available at https://github.com/Switch457/WeakS2Diff_SOD.
Images captured by consumer electronic devices, such as mobile phones and digital cameras, often suffer from low-light degradation due to sensor limitations and imaging pipelines, which degrades visual quality and affects downstream vision tasks. Existing methods based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Transformers have dominated current low-light image enhancement (LIE) due to their excellent ability to model hierarchical features. However, CNNs operate in local receptive fields that cannot model long-range dependencies, while Transformers overcome this problem but incur substantial computational costs. To address these challenges, we propose MambaLIE, a Scene Light Intensity-Boosted Low-Light Image Enhancement method based on a State Space Model (SSM). We first introduce scene light intensity to improve the structural distribution of illumination, which is then gated with the low-light input to guide enhancement. To better model the illumination while maintaining computational efficiency, we propose the Locally Enhanced State Space Model (LESSM) for efficient light enhancement. Our LESSM contains two branches: an SSM branch and a Local Enhanced branch, where the former is used to model the long-range dependencies with linear time complexity, while the latter is used to enhance local feature representations. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MambaLIE outperforms state-of-the-art CNN-based and Transformer-based LIE methods on four widely used synthetic benchmarks and five publicly available real-world benchmarks in terms of accuracy, speed, and model size, making it suitable for practical deployment on resource-constrained devices.
Blind image deblurring demands the recovery of high-fidelity details and coherent structures from complex, unknown degradations. Current blind image deblurring methods struggle with real-world, spatially varying degradations, and lack the semantic awareness necessary to reliably differentiate valid textures from artifacts. To bridge this gap, we propose CogSENet, a dynamic, semantic-aligned reconstruction framework inspired by the eagle's visual system. By mimicking the eagle's active saccadic scanning, we devise a Semantic-Driven State Space Module (SDSSM) with semantic-aware token regrouping via differentiable routing, enabling prompt-conditioned long-range dependency modeling. To ensure physically interpretable recovery of textures and structures, a BiFreqFusionBlock (BFFB) mirrors functional differentiation of the eagle's retina by decomposing features into high and low frequencies using wavelet transforms. Finally, we estimate a continuous Blur Field (CBF) from blur image and fuse it with CLIP semantic priors to modulate the deepest latent features, emulating focal adaptation and enabling adaptive restoration under spatially non-uniform blur. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CogSENetoutperforms state-of-the-art deblurring methods in both visual quality and structural fidelity with fewer parameters, while also performing favorably on dehazing, deraining, and denoising tasks.
Multi-exposure fusion (MEF) brings the dynamic range of conventional cameras closer to that of human vision, producing images with rich scene content. Given the large variability in scene luminance, exposure strategies often require different numbers of frames to capture the full radiance range faithfully. However, conventional MEF techniques are typically designed for a fixed number of inputs, forcing deployment systems to maintain separate models for different frame-count requirements, which undermines deployment efficiency. To address this limitation, we propose FreeMEF, the first flexible-frame transformer for MEF that seamlessly accommodates varying numbers of input exposures without retraining or architectural changes. The proposed approach consists of two key modules. First, we introduce a recurrent state space module (RSSM) that sequentially fuses features from arbitrary sequences via adaptive alignment and state-space recurrent modeling, thereby providing global information guidance for the subsequent restoration. Second, we devise a global feature guided block (GFGB) incorporating an extremity-aware hybrid attention (EAHA) and an affine-injection feed-forward network (AFFN), which effectively resolves the similarity paradox while simultaneously optimizing contrast and brightness regulation. Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, which performs favorably against state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and qualitatively.
While recent advancements in anomaly detection have demonstrated the efficacy of CNN- and Transformer-based approaches, these architectures face inherent limitations: CNNs struggle to capture long-range dependencies, whereas Transformers suffer from quadratic computational complexity. Consequently, Mamba-based architectures have attracted considerable attention, as they successfully combine superior long-range dependency modeling with linear computational complexity. By critically rethinking the structural evolution across the Mamba lineage 1-3 series, this paper proposes MambaADv2, a framework tailored for multi-class unsupervised anomaly detection. MambaADv2 comprises a pre-trained encoder and a Mamba-inspired decoder, equipped with Duality-enhanced State Space (DSS) modules across multiple scales. The proposed DSS module effectively models both global dependencies and local representations by integrating parallel-cascaded Hybrid State Space (HSS) blocks and frequency-enhanced convolution operations. The structure of the Hybrid State Space (HSS) block is tailored by following the SSD-based Mamba lineage and incorporating Mamba3-style position-aware state-space modeling, leveraging the dual computational paths of linear recurrence and parallel matrix formulation to model local continuity and global contextual comparison, thereby better serving the core anomaly detection objective of precisely reconstructing normal representations while magnifying anomalous deviations. Additionally, we propose a semantics-adaptive progressive scanning strategy that decays scanning complexity along the feature pyramid.
Real-time weld-pool perception is critical for closed-loop control in laser wire-feed welding, where sensing, computation, and actuator response introduce unavoidable delay. This paper presents a physics-guided spatiotemporal state space network for lookahead weld-pool segmentation. The model uses historical coaxial grayscale images, welding process parameters, and aligned wire-state electrical signals to predict the future semantic layout of three physically meaningful regions: keyhole, wire, and molten pool. It combines a visual encoder, process- and sensor-conditioned feature normalization, patch-level temporal state space modeling, horizon-conditioned latent prediction, dense future feature prediction, and a motion-aware mask decoder. Auxiliary signed-distance-function supervision, temporal consistency, feature distillation, and fine-grained keyhole losses further constrain the predicted geometry and local motion. Experiments on a 43-sequence laser welding dataset show that the proposed WeldMamba reaches 74.63\% mIoU at a 500 ms lookahead. Ablation studies further show that temporal history, patch-level state space modeling, and keyhole motion awareness are the main contributors to robust future segmentation.
Correspondence pruning aims to identify inliers from an initial set of correspondences. Most existing Graph Neural Network (GNN)-based methods rely on geometric features mapped from coarse Euclidean coordinates, which struggle to capture the subtle geometric consistencies presented by inliers. While Mamba-based methods possess global receptive fields and long sequence modeling capabilities, they tend to accumulate substantial inconsistent features within the hidden state space, making it difficult to distinguish inliers from outliers. In this paper, we integrate frequency domain perception into this task for the first time and propose SFMambaNet, a novel Spectral-Frequency enhanced Mamba-based two-view correspondence pruning network. Our method is collaboratively composed of two components: First, we design a Local Spectral-Geometric Attention (LSGA) block. LSGA incorporates spectral positional encoding into local graph interactions and introduces multi-scale Mamba processing to enhance the capture of subtle geometric consistencies and improve local feature discriminability. Building upon this, we design a Spectral-Integrated Global Mamba (SIGM) block. SIGM embeds a frequency gating mechanism within the state space, utilizing the frequency information provided by LSGA to explicitly suppress high-frequency noise accumulation within hidden states and mitigate the propagation of inconsistent features. This enhances inlier-outlier separability and achieves robust global context modeling capabilities with nearly linear complexity. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SFMambaNet outperforms current state-of-the-art methods on several challenging tasks. The code is available at https://github.com/Kirito14IT/SFMambaNet.
The detection and segmentation of infrared small targets have important application significance in the fields of surveillance and security, maritime rescue and so on. Due to the low occupancy of these targets in long-distance imaging, the mainstream visual state space model is inefficient and difficult to accurately model the target edge. The existing infrared state space models do not deviate from the mainstream visual state space structure framework from the structural properties of infrared small targets. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes the RPCASSM network based on the model paradigm of robust principal component analysis(RPCA), which aims to design the background state space module(BSSM) and the target state space module(TSSM) by the nature of the infrared small target in the spatial domain. The BSSM aims to use the saliency of spatial heterogeneous signals to design a spatial probe scanning mechanism(SPCM) to model background information. The TSSM designs a deformable prompt scanning mechanism(DPCM) by using the sparsity and local highlight of the target to focus on the deformable space of the target for state space modeling. According to the above design, we effectively solve the problem that the existing mainstream vision state space model is difficult to accurately model the edge structure of infrared small target. Experimental results on the existing benchmark data sets prove the effectiveness of the RPCASSM design. Our code will be made public at \href{https://github.com/PepperCS/RPCASSM}{RPCASSM}.
