Existing cloud detection methods often rely on deep neural networks, leading to excessive computational overhead. To address this, we propose a shallow convolutional neural network (CNN)–Transformer hybrid architecture that limits the maximum downsampling rate to $8\times $ . This design preserves local details while effectively capturing global context through a lightweight Transformer branch. To enhance adaptability across diverse cloud scenes, we introduce two novel statistics-driven modules: statistics-adaptive convolution (SAC) and statistical mixing augmentation (SMA). SAC dynamically generates convolutional kernels based on input feature statistics, enabling adaptive feature extraction for varying cloud patterns. SMA improves model generalization by interpolating channel-wise statistics across training samples, increasing feature diversity. Experiments on four datasets show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance with 732 K parameters and 1G multiply-accumulate operations (MACs).
