Deep neural networks have faced many problems in hyperspectral image classification, including the ineffective utilization of spectral-spatial joint information and the problems of gradient vanishing and overfitting that arise with increasing depth. In order to accelerate the deployment of models on edge devices with strict latency requirements and limited computing power, this paper proposes a learnable group convolution network (LGCNet) based on an improved 3D-DenseNet model and a lightweight model design. The LGCNet module improves the shortcomings of group convolution by introducing a dynamic learning method for the input channels and convolution kernel grouping, enabling flexible grouping structures and generating better representation ability. Through the overall loss and gradient of the backpropagation network, the 3D group convolution is dynamically determined and updated in an end-to-end manner. The learnable number of channels and corresponding grouping can capture different complementary visual features of input images, allowing the CNN to learn richer feature representations. When extracting high-dimensional and redundant hyperspectral data, the 3D convolution kernels also contain a large amount of redundant information. The LGC module allows the 3D-DenseNet to choose channel information with more semantic features, and is very efficient, making it suitable for embedding in any deep neural network for acceleration and efficiency improvements. LGC enables the 3D-CNN to achieve sufficient feature extraction while also meeting speed and computing requirements. Furthermore, LGCNet has achieved progress in inference speed and accuracy, and outperforms mainstream hyperspectral image classification methods on the Indian Pines, Pavia University, and KSC datasets.

We study training-free image editing on Qwen-Image-Edit-2511, a 60-block multi-modal diffusion transformer (MMDiT) that concatenates noise and source-image tokens within a single attention stream. We make three contributions. (i) We introduce KVInject, a single-forward attention manipulation that alpha-blends source-half key/value projections into the noise-half within a localized layer/step band. KVInject is simpler than the classical two-pass MasaCtrl recipe and avoids the prompt-mismatch failure mode that disables MasaCtrl on MMDiT (composite score drops 31% versus baseline). (ii) We show that no single attention operation dominates across edit types, motivating AttnRouter, a per-category routing table that dispatches edits to the operation that best preserves source structure for that type. With ground-truth categories the router improves the CLIP-T+DINO-I composite by 6.4% over the editing baseline; an automatic CLIP zero-shot classifier closes 98% of this gap despite only 55% category accuracy. (iii) Through layer-, step-, and alpha-band ablations we localize the editing-effective attention sub-circuit: K/V injection in early denoising steps (S0-7) recovers nearly all of the gain of full-step injection, while injection in early (L0-15) or late (L45-60) layer bands fails to drive editing entirely; alpha in [0.3, 0.5] is a stable sweet spot. We also report negative results that highlight what does not transfer from the UNet folklore: simple K/V rescaling never beats baseline and aggressive variants collapse generation entirely (composite 0.084). We release code, pre-computed routing tables, and a 100-sample stratified subset of ImgEdit-Bench used in all ablations.

Scene text editing (STE) has achieved remarkable progress in accurately rendering target text through diffusion-based methods. However, we identify a critical yet overlooked problem: edit spillover -- when editing a target text region, existing methods inadvertently modify non-target regions, particularly neighboring text. Through systematic evaluation on 50 real-world scenes across four categories, we reveal that state-of-the-art diffusion editing models exhibit a spillover rate of 94%, meaning nearly all non-target text regions are altered during editing. To address this, we propose the Edit Fidelity Field (EFF), a semantics-aware continuous field that controls per-pixel editing fidelity. Unlike binary masks, EFF leverages OCR-detected text regions to construct a four-zone field: Edit Core (fully editable), Transition Zone (smooth decay), Protected Zone (non-target text, explicitly locked), and Background (strictly preserved). EFF operates as a training-free, model-agnostic post-processing module applicable to any diffusion-based STE method. We further propose per-region spillover quantification, a novel evaluation protocol that measures edit leakage at each non-target text region individually. Experiments demonstrate that EFF reduces spillover rate from 94% to 25% while improving non-target region preservation by +91.4 dB PSNR.

Image editing instructions are heterogeneous: a color swap, an object insertion, and a physical-action edit all demand different spatial coverage and different reasoning depth, yet existing reasoning-based editors apply a single fixed inference recipe to every instruction. We argue that adaptivity along both the spatial and temporal axes is the missing degree of freedom, and we present PhysEdit, an editing framework built around this principle. PhysEdit introduces two inference-time modules that compose without retraining the backbone. At its core, (1) Complexity-Adaptive Reasoning Depth (CARD) predicts edit complexity directly from the instruction and reference image and allocates the reasoning step count N_r and reasoning-token length r per sample -- turning a previously fixed inference schedule into a conditional-computation problem. CARD is supported by (2) a Spatial Reasoning Mask (SRM) that extracts an instruction-conditioned spatial prior from cross-attention to confine reasoning to regions that semantically require it. On the full 737-case ImgEdit Basic-Edit Suite, PhysEdit delivers a 1.18x wall-clock speedup (64.3s vs. 76.1s per sample) over a strong reasoning baseline while slightly improving instruction adherence (CLIP-T 0.2283 vs. 0.2266, +0.7%) and matching identity preservation within noise (CLIP-I 0.8246 vs. 0.8280). The speedup is category-dependent and reaches 1.52x on appearance-level edits, validating CARD's adaptive allocation as the principal source of efficiency gain. A 30-sample pilot with full ablations isolates the contribution of each module.

Deep neural networks face several challenges in hyperspectral image classification, including insufficient utilization of joint spatial-spectral information, gradient vanishing with increasing depth, and overfitting. To enhance feature extraction efficiency while skipping redundant information, this paper proposes a dynamic attention convolution design based on an improved 3D-DenseNet model. The design employs multiple parallel convolutional kernels instead of a single kernel and assigns dynamic attention weights to these parallel convolutions. This dynamic attention mechanism achieves adaptive feature response based on spatial characteristics in the spatial dimension of hyperspectral images, focusing more on key spatial structures. In the spectral dimension, it enables dynamic discrimination of different bands, alleviating information redundancy and computational complexity caused by high spectral dimensionality. The DAC module enhances model representation capability by attention-based aggregation of multiple convolutional kernels without increasing network depth or width. The proposed method demonstrates superior performance in both inference speed and accuracy, outperforming mainstream hyperspectral image classification methods on the IN, UP, and KSC datasets.

Deep neural networks face numerous challenges in hyperspectral image classification, including high-dimensional data, sparse ground object distributions, and spectral redundancy, which often lead to classification overfitting and limited generalization capability. To better adapt to ground object distributions while expanding receptive fields without introducing excessive parameters and skipping redundant information, this paper proposes WCNet, an improved 3D-DenseNet model integrated with wavelet transforms. We introduce wavelet transforms to effectively extend convolutional receptive fields and guide CNNs to better respond to low frequencies through cascading, termed wavelet convolution. Each convolution focuses on different frequency bands of the input signal with gradually increasing effective ranges. This process enables greater emphasis on low-frequency components while adding only a small number of trainable parameters. This dynamic approach allows the model to flexibly focus on critical spatial structures when processing different regions, rather than relying on fixed receptive fields of single static kernels. The Wavelet Conv module enhances model representation capability by expanding receptive fields through 3D wavelet transforms without increasing network depth or width. Experimental results demonstrate superior performance on the IN, UP, and KSC datasets, outperforming mainstream hyperspectral image classification methods.

Deep neural networks face several challenges in hyperspectral image classification, including complex and sparse ground object distributions, small clustered structures, and elongated multi-branch features that often lead to missing detections. To better adapt to ground object distributions and achieve adaptive dynamic feature responses while skipping redundant information, this paper proposes a Spatial-Geometry Enhanced 3D Dynamic Snake Network (SG-DSCNet) based on an improved 3D-DenseNet model. The network employs Dynamic Snake Convolution (DSCConv), which introduces deformable offsets to enhance kernel flexibility through constrained self-learning, thereby improving regional perception of ground objects. Additionally, we propose a multi-view feature fusion strategy that generates multiple morphological kernel templates from DSCConv to observe target structures from different perspectives and achieve efficient feature fusion through summarizing key characteristics. This dynamic approach enables the model to focus more flexibly on critical spatial structures when processing different regions, rather than relying on fixed receptive fields of single static kernels. The DSC module enhances model representation capability through dynamic kernel aggregation without increasing network depth or width. Experimental results demonstrate superior performance on the IN, UP, and KSC datasets, outperforming mainstream hyperspectral classification methods.

Deep neural networks face several challenges in hyperspectral image classification, including high-dimensional data, sparse distribution of ground objects, and spectral redundancy, which often lead to classification overfitting and limited generalization capability. To more efficiently adapt to ground object distributions while extracting image features without introducing excessive parameters and skipping redundant information, this paper proposes EKGNet based on an improved 3D-DenseNet model, consisting of a context-aware mapping network and a dynamic kernel generation module. The context-aware mapping module translates global contextual information of hyperspectral inputs into instructions for combining base convolutional kernels, while the dynamic kernels are composed of K groups of base convolutions, analogous to K different types of experts specializing in fundamental patterns across various dimensions. The mapping module and dynamic kernel generation mechanism form a tightly coupled system - the former generates meaningful combination weights based on inputs, while the latter constructs an adaptive expert convolution system using these weights. This dynamic approach enables the model to focus more flexibly on key spatial structures when processing different regions, rather than relying on the fixed receptive field of a single static convolutional kernel. EKGNet enhances model representation capability through a 3D dynamic expert convolution system without increasing network depth or width. The proposed method demonstrates superior performance on IN, UP, and KSC datasets, outperforming mainstream hyperspectral image classification approaches.

Deep neural networks face several challenges in hyperspectral image classification, including high-dimensional data, sparse distribution of ground objects, and spectral redundancy, which often lead to classification overfitting and limited generalization capability. To more efficiently adapt to ground object distributions while extracting image features without introducing excessive parameters and skipping redundant information, this paper proposes KANet based on an improved 3D-DenseNet model, consisting of 3D KAN Conv and an adaptive grid update mechanism. By introducing learnable univariate B-spline functions on network edges, specifically by flattening three-dimensional neighborhoods into vectors and applying B-spline-parameterized nonlinear activation functions to replace the fixed linear weights of traditional 3D convolutional kernels, we precisely capture complex spectral-spatial nonlinear relationships in hyperspectral data. Simultaneously, through a dynamic grid adjustment mechanism, we adaptively update the grid point positions of B-splines based on the statistical characteristics of input data, optimizing the resolution of spline functions to match the non-uniform distribution of spectral features, significantly improving the model's accuracy in high-dimensional data modeling and parameter efficiency, effectively alleviating the curse of dimensionality. This characteristic demonstrates superior neural scaling laws compared to traditional convolutional neural networks and reduces overfitting risks in small-sample and high-noise scenarios. KANet enhances model representation capability through a 3D dynamic expert convolution system without increasing network depth or width. The proposed method demonstrates superior performance on IN, UP, and KSC datasets, outperforming mainstream hyperspectral image classification approaches.

Training-free control over editing intensity is a critical requirement for diffusion-based image editing models built on the Diffusion Transformer (DiT) architecture. Existing attention manipulation methods focus exclusively on the Key space to modulate attention routing, leaving the Value space -- which governs feature aggregation -- entirely unexploited. In this paper, we first reveal that both Key and Value projections in DiT's multi-modal attention layers exhibit a pronounced bias-delta structure, where token embeddings cluster tightly around a layer-specific bias vector. Building on this observation, we propose Dual-Channel Attention Guidance (DCAG), a training-free framework that simultaneously manipulates both the Key channel (controlling where to attend) and the Value channel (controlling what to aggregate). We provide a theoretical analysis showing that the Key channel operates through the nonlinear softmax function, acting as a coarse control knob, while the Value channel operates through linear weighted summation, serving as a fine-grained complement. Together, the two-dimensional parameter space $(δ_k, δ_v)$ enables more precise editing-fidelity trade-offs than any single-channel method. Extensive experiments on the PIE-Bench benchmark (700 images, 10 editing categories) demonstrate that DCAG consistently outperforms Key-only guidance across all fidelity metrics, with the most significant improvements observed in localized editing tasks such as object deletion (4.9% LPIPS reduction) and object addition (3.2% LPIPS reduction).

Hyperspectral image (HSI) classification faces challenges such as high-dimensional data, limited training samples, and spectral redundancy, which often lead to overfitting and insufficient generalization capability. This paper proposes a novel MVNet network architecture that integrates 3D-CNN's local feature extraction, Transformer's global modeling, and Mamba's linear complexity sequence modeling capabilities, achieving efficient spatial-spectral feature extraction and fusion. MVNet features a redesigned dual-branch Mamba module, including a State Space Model (SSM) branch and a non-SSM branch employing 1D convolution with SiLU activation, enhancing modeling of both short-range and long-range dependencies while reducing computational latency in traditional Mamba. The optimized HSI-MambaVision Mixer module overcomes the unidirectional limitation of causal convolution, capturing bidirectional spatial-spectral dependencies in a single forward pass through decoupled attention that focuses on high-value features, alleviating parameter redundancy and the curse of dimensionality. On IN, UP, and KSC datasets, MVNet outperforms mainstream hyperspectral image classification methods in both classification accuracy and computational efficiency, demonstrating robust capability in processing complex HSI data.

Deep neural networks face several challenges in hyperspectral image classification, including high-dimensional data, sparse distribution of ground objects, and spectral redundancy, which often lead to classification overfitting and limited generalization capability. To more effectively extract and fuse spatial context with fine spectral information in hyperspectral image (HSI) classification, this paper proposes a novel network architecture called STNet. The core advantage of STNet stems from the dual innovative design of its Spatial-Spectral Transformer module: first, the fundamental explicit decoupling of spatial and spectral attention ensures targeted capture of key information in HSI; second, two functionally distinct gating mechanisms perform intelligent regulation at both the fusion level of attention flows (adaptive attention fusion gating) and the internal level of feature transformation (GFFN). This characteristic demonstrates superior feature extraction and fusion capabilities compared to traditional convolutional neural networks, while reducing overfitting risks in small-sample and high-noise scenarios. STNet enhances model representation capability without increasing network depth or width. The proposed method demonstrates superior performance on IN, UP, and KSC datasets, outperforming mainstream hyperspectral image classification approaches.

Personalized text-to-image generation aims to integrate specific identities into arbitrary contexts. However, existing tuning-free methods typically employ Spatially Uniform Visual Injection, causing identity features to contaminate non-facial regions (e.g., backgrounds and lighting) and degrading text adherence. To address this without expensive fine-tuning, we propose SpatialID, a training-free spatially-adaptive identity modulation framework. SpatialID fundamentally decouples identity injection into face-relevant and context-free regions using a Spatial Mask Extractor derived from cross-attention responses. Furthermore, we introduce a Temporal-Spatial Scheduling strategy that dynamically adjusts spatial constraints - transitioning from Gaussian priors to attention-based masks and adaptive relaxation - to align with the diffusion generation dynamics. Extensive experiments on IBench demonstrate that SpatialID achieves state-of-the-art performance in text adherence (CLIP-T: 0.281), visual consistency (CLIP-I: 0.827), and image quality (IQ: 0.523), significantly eliminating background contamination while maintaining robust identity preservation.
