• Abstract: Existing image synthesis methods for natural scenes focus primarily on foreground control, often reducing the background to simplistic textures. Consequently, these approaches tend to overlook the intrinsic correlation between foreground and background, which may lead to incoherent and unrealistic synthesis results in remote sensing (RS) scenarios. In this paper, we introduce CC-Diff, a $\underline{\textbf{Diff}}$usion Model-based approach for RS image generation with enhanced $\underline{\textbf{C}}$ontext $\underline{\textbf{C}}$oherence. Specifically, we propose a novel Dual Re-sampler for feature extraction, with a built-in `Context Bridge' to explicitly capture the intricate interdependency between foreground and background. Moreover, we reinforce their connection by employing a foreground-aware attention mechanism during the generation of background features, thereby enhancing the plausibility of the synthesized context. Extensive experiments show that CC-Diff outperforms state-of-the-art methods across critical quality metrics, excelling in the RS domain and effectively generalizing to natural images. Remarkably, CC-Diff also shows high trainability, boosting detection accuracy by 1.83 mAP on DOTA and 2.25 mAP on the COCO benchmark.

  Image-event joint depth estimation methods leverage complementary modalities for robust perception, yet face challenges in generalizability. We propose Self-supervised Transfer (PST) and FrequencyDe-coupled Fusion module (FreDF) PST establishes cross-modal knowledge transfer through latent space alignment with image foundation models. FreDF explicitly decouples high-frequency edge features from low-frequency structural components, resolving modality-specific frequency mismatches.

  Composed Image Retrieval (CIR) is a complex task that retrieves images using a query, which is configured with an image and a caption. We introduce a novel ZS-CIR method that uses Spherical Linear Interpolation (Slerp) to directly merge image and text representations. We also introduce Text-Anchored-Tuning (TAT), a method that fine-tunes the image encoder while keeping the text encoder fixed.

Our performance is on par with or even outperforms the state-of-the-art image-based localization baselines in medium or high precision.
