arXiv:2607.24184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Infrared small target detection (IRSTD) is important for low-altitude perception, unmanned-system warning, and security monitoring. However, weak targets in infrared imagery usually occupy only a few pixels and are easily submerged by cloud clutter, ground edges, and bright noise, making it difficult for lightweight segmentation-based methods to preserve local target structures while suppressing background interference. To address these challenges, we propose LCMamNet, a lightweight cross-scale Mamba network that progressively enhances local target structures, interacts cross-scale context in a latent space, and restores spatial details with background suppression. Specifically, a compact hierarchical encoder with cross-shaped directional bottleneck residual (CDBR) blocks strengthens direction-sensitive target structures under a small computation budget.
