MambaMPD: A Mamba-Driven Segmentation Framework for Marine Pollution Detection from Remote Sensing Imagery

Accurate marine pollution detection (MPD) is essential for protecting coastal ecosystems and marine biodiversity. Vision Mamba models have shown promise in remote-sensing semantic segmentation by efficiently capturing long-range dependencies and global context, yet their potential for MPD remains underexplored. MPD is particularly challenging because of low signal-to-noise ratios, fragmented pollution patterns, and indistinct boundaries caused by the visual similarity between pollutants and the surrounding sea. To address these issues, we propose MambaMPD, an enhanced Mamba-based framework incorporating two complementary structural priors: Frequency-Aware Augmentation (FAA) and multi-scale Edge-Guided Attention (EGA). FAA integrates wavelet transforms into the encoder to decompose features into multi-scale frequency subbands, enabling the model to capture low-frequency contextual semantics and high-frequency structural details needed to identify small, low-contrast, and irregular pollution patterns. EGA adaptively fuses hierarchical, Laplacian-derived boundary cues with deep semantic representations, refining encoder features before decoding to sharpen boundaries and reduce ambiguity in visually confusing, spatially fragmented scenes. Together, these modules improve sensitivity to subtle pollution signals while preserving fine boundary structures. A U-Net-style decoder with squeeze-and-excitation attention and deep supervision progressively restores and refines semantic and spatial information across scales. Extensive experiments on two benchmark MPD datasets show that MambaMPD achieves higher mIoU than competing methods while requiring substantially less computation than foundation-model-based approaches. On MADOS, it improves F1 by 3.6% over OSDMamba; on M4D, it raises Oil Spill IoU by 6.82% over TransOilSeg.

OilSAM2: Memory-Augmented SAM2 for Scalable SAR Oil Spill Detection

Segmenting oil spills from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery remains challenging due to severe appearance variability, scale heterogeneity, and the absence of temporal continuity in real world monitoring scenarios. While foundation models such as Segment Anything (SAM) enable prompt driven segmentation, existing SAM based approaches operate on single images and cannot effectively reuse information across scenes. Memory augmented variants (e.g., SAM2) further assume temporal coherence, making them prone to semantic drift when applied to unordered SAR image collections. We propose OilSAM2, a memory augmented segmentation framework tailored for unordered SAR oil spill monitoring. OilSAM2 introduces a hierarchical feature aware multi scale memory bank that explicitly models texture, structure, and semantic level representations, enabling robust cross image information reuse. To mitigate memory drift, we further propose a structure semantic consistent memory update strategy that selectively refreshes memory based on semantic discrepancy and structural variation.Experiments on two public SAR oil spill datasets demonstrate that OilSAM2 achieves state of the art segmentation performance, delivering stable and accurate results under noisy SAR monitoring scenarios.

Beyond Segmentation: An Oil Spill Change Detection Framework Using Synthetic SAR Imagery

Marine oil spills are urgent environmental hazards that demand rapid and reliable detection to minimise ecological and economic damage. While Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery has become a key tool for large-scale oil spill monitoring, most existing detection methods rely on deep learning-based segmentation applied to single SAR images. These static approaches struggle to distinguish true oil spills from visually similar oceanic features (e.g., biogenic slicks or low-wind zones), leading to high false positive rates and limited generalizability, especially under data-scarce conditions. To overcome these limitations, we introduce Oil Spill Change Detection (OSCD), a new bi-temporal task that focuses on identifying changes between pre- and post-spill SAR images. As real co-registered pre-spill imagery is not always available, we propose the Temporal-Aware Hybrid Inpainting (TAHI) framework, which generates synthetic pre-spill images from post-spill SAR data. TAHI integrates two key components: High-Fidelity Hybrid Inpainting for oil-free reconstruction, and Temporal Realism Enhancement for radiometric and sea-state consistency. Using TAHI, we construct the first OSCD dataset and benchmark several state-of-the-art change detection models. Results show that OSCD significantly reduces false positives and improves detection accuracy compared to conventional segmentation, demonstrating the value of temporally-aware methods for reliable, scalable oil spill monitoring in real-world scenarios.

OSDMamba: Enhancing Oil Spill Detection from Remote Sensing Images Using Selective State Space Model

Semantic segmentation is commonly used for Oil Spill Detection (OSD) in remote sensing images. However, the limited availability of labelled oil spill samples and class imbalance present significant challenges that can reduce detection accuracy. Furthermore, most existing methods, which rely on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), struggle to detect small oil spill areas due to their limited receptive fields and inability to effectively capture global contextual information. This study explores the potential of State-Space Models (SSMs), particularly Mamba, to overcome these limitations, building on their recent success in vision applications. We propose OSDMamba, the first Mamba-based architecture specifically designed for oil spill detection. OSDMamba leverages Mamba's selective scanning mechanism to effectively expand the model's receptive field while preserving critical details. Moreover, we designed an asymmetric decoder incorporating ConvSSM and deep supervision to strengthen multi-scale feature fusion, thereby enhancing the model's sensitivity to minority class samples. Experimental results show that the proposed OSDMamba achieves state-of-the-art performance, yielding improvements of 8.9% and 11.8% in OSD across two publicly available datasets.

What Does ChatGPT Make of Historical Stock Returns? Extrapolation and Miscalibration in LLM Stock Return Forecasts

We examine how large language models (LLMs) interpret historical stock returns and compare their forecasts with estimates from a crowd-sourced platform for ranking stocks. While stock returns exhibit short-term reversals, LLM forecasts over-extrapolate, placing excessive weight on recent performance similar to humans. LLM forecasts appear optimistic relative to historical and future realized returns. When prompted for 80% confidence interval predictions, LLM responses are better calibrated than survey evidence but are pessimistic about outliers, leading to skewed forecast distributions. The findings suggest LLMs manifest common behavioral biases when forecasting expected returns but are better at gauging risks than humans.

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Cryptocurrency Trading: Practical Approach to Address Backtest Overfitting

Designing profitable and reliable trading strategies is challenging in the highly volatile cryptocurrency market. Existing works applied deep reinforcement learning methods and optimistically reported increased profits in backtesting, which may suffer from the false positive issue due to overfitting. In this paper, we propose a practical approach to address backtest overfitting for cryptocurrency trading using deep reinforcement learning. First, we formulate the detection of backtest overfitting as a hypothesis test. Then, we train the DRL agents, estimate the probability of overfitting, and reject the overfitted agents, increasing the chance of good trading performance. Finally, on 10 cryptocurrencies over a testing period from 05/01/2022 to 06/27/2022 (during which the crypto market crashed two times), we show that the less overfitted deep reinforcement learning agents have a higher return than that of more overfitted agents, an equal weight strategy, and the S&P DBM Index (market benchmark), offering confidence in possible deployment to a real market.
