UAV-CB: A Complex-Background RGB-T Dataset and Local Frequency Bridge Network for UAV DetectionShenghui Huang, Menghao Hu, Longkun Zou et al.
Detecting Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in low-altitude environments is essential for perception and defense systems but remains highly challenging due to complex backgrounds, camouflage, and multimodal interference. In real-world scenarios, UAVs are frequently visually blended with surrounding structures such as buildings, vegetation, and power lines, resulting in low contrast, weak boundaries, and strong confusion with cluttered background textures. Existing UAV detection datasets, though diverse, are not specifically designed to capture these camouflage and complex-background challenges, which limits progress toward robust real-world perception. To fill this gap, we construct UAV-CB, a new RGB-T UAV detection dataset deliberately curated to emphasize complex low-altitude backgrounds and camouflage characteristics. Furthermore, we propose the Local Frequency Bridge Network (LFBNet), which models features in localized frequency space to bridge both the frequency-spatial fusion gap and the cross-modality discrepancy gap in RGB-T fusion. Extensive experiments on UAV-CB and public benchmarks demonstrate that LFBNet achieves state-of-the-art detection performance and strong robustness under camouflaged and cluttered conditions, offering a frequency-aware perspective on multimodal UAV perception in real-world applications.

LLM Agent for Hyper-Parameter OptimizationWanzhe Wang, Jianqiu Peng, Menghao Hu et al.
Hyper-parameters are essential and critical for the performance of communication algorithms. However, current hyper-parameters optimization approaches for Warm-Start Particles Swarm Optimization with Crossover and Mutation (WS-PSO-CM) algorithm, designed for radio map-enabled unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) trajectory and communication, are primarily heuristic-based, exhibiting low levels of automation and improvable performance. In this paper, we design an Large Language Model (LLM) agent for automatic hyper-parameters-tuning, where an iterative framework and Model Context Protocol (MCP) are applied. In particular, the LLM agent is first set up via a profile, which specifies the boundary of hyper-parameters, task objective, terminal condition, conservative or aggressive strategy of optimizing hyper-parameters, and LLM configurations. Then, the LLM agent iteratively invokes WS-PSO-CM algorithm for exploration. Finally, the LLM agent exits the loop based on the terminal condition and returns an optimized set of hyperparameters. Our experiment results show that the minimal sum-rate achieved by hyper-parameters generated via our LLM agent is significantly higher than those by both human heuristics and random generation methods. This indicates that an LLM agent with PSO and WS-PSO-CM algorithm knowledge is useful in seeking high-performance hyper-parameters.
