VLGNet: Vision-language guided multimodal network for infrared small target detection

Infrared small target detection (IRSTD) aims to identify dim, tiny targets with extremely low signal-to-noise ratios in complex infrared scenes, where targets are often submerged in heavy clutter and exhibit weak, ambiguous visual characteristics. These challenges are further exacerbated by background noise, low contra...
