Enhancing Semantic Clarity: Discriminative and Fine-grained Information Mining for Remote Sensing Image-Text Retrieval
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Remote sensing image-text retrieval is a fundamental task in remote sensing multimodal analysis, promoting the alignment of visual and language representations. The mainstream approaches commonly focus on capturing shared semantic representations between visual and textual modalities. However, the inherent characteristics of remote sensing image-text pairs lead to a semantic confusion problem, stemming from redundant visual representations and high inter-class similarity. To tackle this problem, we propose a novel Discriminative and Fine-grained Information Mining (DFIM) model, which aims to enhance semantic clarity by reducing visual redundancy and increasing the semantic gap between different classes. Specifically, the Dynamic Visual Enhancement (DVE) module adaptively enhances the visual discriminative features under the guidance of multimodal fusion information. Meanwhile, the Fine-grained Semantic Matching (FSM) module cleverly models the matching relationship between image regions and text words as an optimal transport problem, thereby refining intra-instance matching. Extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets justify the superiority of DFIM in terms of retrieval accuracy and visual interpretability over the leading methods.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
