Automated detection of lunar impact craters from digital elevation model (DEM) data is important for lunar geological analysis, landing-site selection, and crater catalog updating. However, this task remains challenging because lunar craters exhibit large scale variations, weak or degraded rims, ambiguous boundaries, and complex topographic backgrounds. In addition, large-scale lunar remote sensing applications require detection models to achieve a reasonable balance among accuracy, model complexity, and inference efficiency. To address these challenges, this study proposes FPW-YOLO11n, a frequency-perception crater detection method developed based on YOLO11n. First, a Frequency-Directional Attention Module (FDA-Module) is introduced into the shallow stage of the backbone. This module combines frequency-aware channel attention and direction-aware spatial attention to enhance the representation of crater rim structures, elevation variations, and directional topographic cues in DEM data. Second, a C2PSA-LRSA module is designed by embedding Local Region Self-Attention into the C2PSA framework, thereby improving local contextual feature interaction while reducing the excessive cost associated with global self-attention. Third, Inner-WIoU is adopted to replace the original CIoU loss in YOLO11n. By combining the auxiliary-box mechanism of Inner-IoU with the sample-quality-aware weighting strategy of WIoU, Inner-WIoU provides a more flexible bounding-box regression objective for craters with weak rims, scale variations, and uncertain boundaries. A DEM-based lunar crater dataset was constructed from the Moon LRO LOLA–SELENE Kaguya TC DEM Merge 60N60S 59m product and the Robbins lunar crater catalog, covering the non-polar region from 60° S to 60° N and containing 4760 image tiles. Under the random data-splitting strategy, FPW-YOLO11n achieves 78.3% Precision, 66.2% Recall, 75.1% mAP@0.5, and 50.2% mAP@0.5:0.95, outperforming the YOLO11n baseline by 1.2, 2.0, 1.6, and 4.0 percentage points, respectively. Additional experiments based on geographically disjoint data splitting further show that the proposed method consistently performs better than YOLO11n on DEM data, indicating that the proposed structural improvements remain effective under a more rigorous spatially independent evaluation setting. Although the computational cost increases from 6.3 to 24.0 GFLOPs, FPW-YOLO11n maintains a compact parameter size of 2.59 M and a high inference speed, demonstrating an improved accuracy–efficiency trade-off for lunar crater detection from DEM data.

The precise segmentation of geological linear features, spanning from planetary lineaments to terrestrial fractures, demands capturing long-range dependencies across complex anisotropic topologies. Although State Space Models (SSMs) offer near-linear computational complexity, their dependence on rigid, axis-aligned scanning trajectories induces a fundamental topological mismatch with curvilinear targets, resulting in fragmented context and feature erosion. To bridge this gap, we propose Fluxamba, a lightweight architecture that introduces a topology-aware feature rectification framework. Central to our design is the Structural Flux Block (SFB), which orchestrates an anisotropic information flux by integrating an Anisotropic Structural Gate (ASG) with a Prior-Modulated Flow (PMF). This mechanism decouples feature orientation from spatial location, dynamically gating context aggregation along the target's intrinsic geometry rather than rigid paths. Furthermore, to mitigate serialization-induced noise in low-contrast environments, we incorporate a Hierarchical Spatial Regulator (HSR) for multi-scale semantic alignment and a High-Fidelity Focus Unit (HFFU) to explicitly maximize the signal-to-noise ratio of faint features. Extensive experiments on diverse geological benchmarks (LROC-Lineament, LineaMapper, and GeoCrack) demonstrate that Fluxamba establishes a new state-of-the-art. Notably, on the challenging LROC-Lineament dataset, it achieves an F1-score of 89.22% and mIoU of 89.87%. Achieving a real-time inference speed of over 24 FPS with only 3.4M parameters and 6.3G FLOPs, Fluxamba reduces computational costs by up to two orders of magnitude compared to heavy-weight baselines, thereby establishing a new Pareto frontier between segmentation fidelity and onboard deployment feasibility.

Satellite-based assessment of power tower damage is essential for rapid disaster response but is challenged by the scarcity of damage samples and the cross-scale mismatch between close-range UAV imagery and satellite imagery. Existing data augmentation methods, including copy-based strategies and diffusion-based generation, often fail to produce reliable samples due to their dependence on the training data distribution and the lack of explicit control over object scale and domain discrepancy. To address these issues, we propose a scale-constrained and frequency-adaptive diffusion-based data construction framework that explicitly models the scale distribution prior of power towers in the remote sensing domain and incorporates frequency-domain adaptation before image generation. Specifically, scale-aware instance embedding is used to construct training samples that conform to satellite-scale statistics, while frequency-domain adaptation is introduced to reduce spectral and texture discrepancies between UAV-derived damaged references and satellite imagery. A diffusion-based inpainting model is then trained on the constructed dataset to reconstruct damage at original tower locations. The experimental results, including feature statistical analysis and downstream change detection validation, demonstrate that the proposed method achieves better alignment with real satellite-scale distributions, reduces geometric and spectral–textural inconsistencies, and improves boundary continuity and structural realism under cross-resolution conditions.
