SAR-assisted thick cloud removal from optical remote sensing images has long been a challenging task. Current mainstream methods face challenges in achieving an effective global receptive field, fully utilizing multi-scale features, and deeply integrating features from both modalities. To overcome these limitations, we propose the Multi-scale Multi-branch Mamba model(M3-CR) for SAR-assisted thick cloud removal. Specifically, we integrate the Mamba model into the task of SAR-assisted cloud removal, effectively modeling global dependencies within the images. Concurrently, a Multi-scale Multi-branch structure is introduced to extract and integrate multi-scale information, and in combination with a convolutional branch to fully exploit the global and local geographic proximities inherent in remote sensing images. Furthermore, we present a novel feature fusion module leveraging the Modal-Traversing 2D Selective Scan(MTSS2D) to enable deep interaction and integration of features from optical and SAR images. The experimental results on two benchmark databases show that the M3-CR achieves superior performance compared to state-of-theart cloud removal approaches, while requiring fewer parameters and reduced FLOPs. The code for M3-CR will be made publicly available at https://github.com/LinpengPan/M3CR.

Camouflaged object detection (COD) is challenging for both human and computer vision, as targets often blend into the background by sharing similar color, texture, or shape. While many feature enhancement techniques exist, single-view methods tend to overemphasize certain Recognizing that camouflaged objects exhibit different concealment strategies under varying observational perspectives, we propose HUNTNet, a network that establishes a dynamic detection mechanism to decouple target features from RGB images and perform topological decamouflage across multiple homomorphic feature spaces through a unified feature focusing architecture. We adopt PVTv2 as the backbone to extract multi-perspective spatial features. Detail representation is enhanced via a feature module that integrates Dual-Channel Recursive (DCR), Wavelet-Gabor Transform (WGT), and Anisotropic Gradient Responding (AGR), which together improve boundary discrimination and edge contour detection. To further boost performance, the Simplicial Feature Integration (SFI) module recursively fuses multi-layer features, enabling high-resolution focus on target regions. Experiments show that HUNTNet surpasses state-of-the-art methods in both accuracy and generalization, offering a robust solution for COD and improving segmentation in complex scenes.

Robust detection of infrared small target under complex background is of great significance for infrared search and tracking applications. However, the inherent problem of limited prior features for infrared small target has always made its detection task a challenging research topic. In order to solve the problem, we propose a novel infrared small target detection method based on monogenic signal decomposition and feature expansion, which can effectively enrich and extract the potential features of the target. First, a series of local information of the original image is obtained through the monogenic signal constructed by Riesz transform. Then, various features of the small target are extracted from different local signals, including the direction feature, edge feature, and local saliency feature. Finally, the fusion of target features is completed through signal reconstruction, thereby achieving target detection. This method not only pays attention to the local salient characteristic of the target, but also supplements the consideration of other characteristics of the target, providing a new idea for small target detection. The experimental results on real infrared images show that the proposed method framework is reasonable and effective, and possesses better detection performance and good generalization compared to other state-of-the-art methods.
