InfRared Small Target Detection (IRSTD) is a prominent and challenging task in computer vision. In recent years, text-guided methods have significantly improved detection performance. However, they still suffer from two key limitations. First, a single text description simultaneously modeling both background and target leads to semantic entanglement, which contradicts the objective of background suppression and target enhancement. Second, reliance on image-specific textual prompts (requiring additional external models such as CLIP during inference) results in deployment constraints. To address these issues, we propose a novel Dual-knowledge Guided Network (DGNet) based on multiple generalizable texts. Specifically, we design a Prior-knowledge Wavelet Modulation (PWM) module, which leverages dual textual priors that separately characterize large-scale backgrounds and sparse targets to effectively disentangle and modulate entangled semantics in the frequency domain. Furthermore, we introduce a Consensus-knowledge Directional Alignment (CDA) loss, which models the initial state and the ideal target across samples as `complex background' and `bright target', respectively, thereby constructing a clear and unified directional optimization trajectory for the model. Extensive experiments on three public datasets demonstrate the superior performance of DGNet and the effectiveness of each component.

Object detection in geospatial scenes, such as satellite and aerial imagery, poses significant challenges due to the varying orientations and densities of objects, as well as the complex backgrounds inherent to remote sensing imagery. Traditional methods for oriented object detection have struggled to address issues such as angular discontinuity, fixed query sizes, and inefficiencies in handling sparse or cluttered scenes. In this paper, we propose LOGOS, a novel transformer-based approach that leverages textual prompts to guide the detection of oriented objects in aerial scenes. In particular, our proposed approach incorporates prompt-modulated content queries to dynamically adjust the model's focus based on the provided text, thereby improving object detection accuracy in complex environments. Empirically, extensive experiments on the DOTA dataset demonstrate that LOGOS outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods, particularly in densely packed and rotated object scenarios. Our approach offers a significant step forward in improving the robustness and scalability of oriented object detection in remote sensing applications.
