The proposed CDXFormer model integrates spatial-temporal context to accurately identify changes in complex scenes and varied conditions. Current RS-CD methods lack a balance between performance and efficiency, with CNNs lacking global context, Transformers being computationally expensive, and Mambas facing CUDA dependence and local correlation loss. The XLSTM-based feature enhancement layer combines linear computational complexity, global context perception, and strong interpretability. A scale-specific Feature Enhancer layer is introduced, along with a Cross-Temporal Global Perceptron for semantic-accurate deep features and a Cross-Temporal Spatial Refiner for detail-rich shallow features. A Cross-Scale Interactive Fusion module progressively interacts global change representations with spatial responses. Experimental results demonstrate state-of-the-art performance on three benchmark datasets, achieving a balance between efficiency and accuracy.

The paper proposes a new model called CDXFormer that helps computers identify changes in images. This is important because it’s hard to find changes when there are many things happening at the same time. The current methods don’t do this well because they either ignore some information or use too much computer power. The new model uses a special kind of brain cell that can look at all the information and understand how it relates to each other. It also has a way to make sure the results are accurate and useful. The paper tested the model on many images and showed that it’s better than other methods.
