`Attention-Guided Cross-Temporal Clustering for Self-Supervised Video Object Segmentation

Video object segmentation (VOS) is a fundamental task in video understanding, requiring accurate delineation and consistent tracking of objects across frames. While supervised methods achieve strong performance, they rely on densely annotated datasets that are costly to obtain and have limited domain coverage. Self-supervised learning offers a promising alternative by removing the need for manual labels; however, existing approaches often struggle to jointly maintain spatial accuracy and temporal coherence, particularly in unconstrained multi-object scenarios. Many rely on optical flow, synthetic motion cues, or task-specific pretraining, limiting scalability and generalisation. We propose a self-supervised framework, Cross-Temporal Consistency and Clustering, that learns mid-level, part-aware representations by combining attention-guided token selection with lightweight temporal clustering. Instead of operating at the pixel or whole-object level, the method aligns soft part assignments across time using a saliency-weighted symmetric consistency objective. The framework leverages a frozen transformer backbone with lightweight modules for adaptive token selection and multi-offset temporal alignment, enabling efficient scaling across resolutions and motion patterns.

PSMamba: Progressive Self-supervised Vision Mamba for Plant Disease Recognition

Self-supervised Learning (SSL) has become a powerful paradigm for representation learning without manual annotations. However, most existing frameworks focus on global alignment and struggle to capture the hierarchical, multi-scale lesion patterns characteristic of plant disease imagery. To address this gap, we propose PSMamba, a progressive self-supervised framework that integrates the efficient sequence modelling of Vision Mamba (VM) with a dual-student hierarchical distillation strategy. Unlike conventional single teacher-student designs, PSMamba employs a shared global teacher and two specialised students: one processes mid-scale views to capture lesion distributions and vein structures, while the other focuses on local views to capture fine-grained cues such as texture irregularities and early-stage lesions. This multi-granular supervision facilitates the joint learning of contextual and detailed representations, with consistency losses ensuring coherent cross-scale alignment. Experiments on three benchmark datasets show that PSMamba consistently outperforms state-of-the-art SSL methods, delivering superior accuracy and robustness in both domain-shifted and fine-grained scenarios.

StateSpace-SSL: Linear-Time Self-supervised Learning for Plant Disease Detection

Self-supervised learning (SSL) is attractive for plant disease detection as it can exploit large collections of unlabeled leaf images, yet most existing SSL methods are built on CNNs or vision transformers that are poorly matched to agricultural imagery. CNN-based SSL struggles to capture disease patterns that evolve continuously along leaf structures, while transformer-based SSL introduces quadratic attention cost from high-resolution patches. To address these limitations, we propose StateSpace-SSL, a linear-time SSL framework that employs a Vision Mamba state-space encoder to model long-range lesion continuity through directional scanning across the leaf surface. A prototype-driven teacher-student objective aligns representations across multiple views, encouraging stable and lesion-aware features from labelled data. Experiments on three publicly available plant disease datasets show that StateSpace-SSL consistently outperforms the CNN- and transformer-based SSL baselines in various evaluation metrics. Qualitative analyses further confirm that it learns compact, lesion-focused feature maps, highlighting the advantage of linear state-space modelling for self-supervised plant disease representation learning.

ConMamba: Contrastive Vision Mamba for Plant Disease Detection

Plant Disease Detection (PDD) is a key aspect of precision agriculture. However, existing deep learning methods often rely on extensively annotated datasets, which are time-consuming and costly to generate. Self-supervised Learning (SSL) offers a promising alternative by exploiting the abundance of unlabeled data. However, most existing SSL approaches suffer from high computational costs due to convolutional neural networks or transformer-based architectures. Additionally, they struggle to capture long-range dependencies in visual representation and rely on static loss functions that fail to align local and global features effectively. To address these challenges, we propose ConMamba, a novel SSL framework specially designed for PDD. ConMamba integrates the Vision Mamba Encoder (VME), which employs a bidirectional State Space Model (SSM) to capture long-range dependencies efficiently. Furthermore, we introduce a dual-level contrastive loss with dynamic weight adjustment to optimize local-global feature alignment. Experimental results on three benchmark datasets demonstrate that ConMamba significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods across multiple evaluation metrics. This provides an efficient and robust solution for PDD.

Efficiency of Terrestrial Laser Scanning in Survey Works: Assessment, Modelling, and Monitoring

Nowadays, static, mobile, terrestrial, and airborne laser scanning technologies have become familiar data sources for engineering work, especially in the area of land surveying. The diversity of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data applications thanks to the accuracy and the high point density in addition to the 3D data processing high speed allow laser scanning to occupy an advanced position among other spatial data acquisition technologies. Moreover, the unmanned aerial vehicle drives the airborne scanning progress by solving the flying complexity issues. However, before the employment of the laser scanning technique, it is unavoidable to assess the accuracy of the scanner being used under different circumstances. The key to success is determined by the correct selection of suitable scanning tools for the project. In this paper, the terrestrial LiDAR data is tested and used for several laser scanning projects having diverse goals and typology, e.g., road deformation monitoring, building facade modelling, road modelling, and stockpile modelling and volume measuring. The accuracy of direct measurement on the LiDAR point cloud is estimated as 4mm which may open the door widely for LiDAR data to play an essential role in survey work applications.
