Abstract
Hyperspectral anomaly detection is a crucial technique for recognizing abnormal pixels in hyperspectral images (HSIs), that is, those with distinct spectral characteristics from those of the surrounding background. Traditional methods always fall short in effectively leveraging the information regarding the spectral and spatial aspects of the dataset simultaneously, limiting their detection performances. This article proposes a novel framework using U-Net, termed hybrid convolution and transformer-based U-Net (HCT-Unet), which integrates convolution with a multihead attention mechanism in Transformer for enhanced hyperspectral anomaly detection. To ensure a more comprehensive understanding of spatial and spectral interactions, the HCT-Unet architecture capitalizes on the strengths of local feature extraction of convolutional layers and the capabilities of the long-range dependency modeling of Transformers. A key innovation of this framework is an error attention mechanism, which facilitates adaptive multiscale feature fusion and enhances the feature representation capacity. Furthermore, a new anomaly score calculation method is proposed, which combines reconstruction error with the pixelwise structural similarity index (SSIM) to determine pixel anomaly from both local structural preservation and global spectral consistency perspectives. Experiments carried out on seven different hyperspectral datasets reveal that the proposed method consistently outperforms the widely accepted state-of-the-art methods in hyperspectral anomaly detection.

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 it
