Is Segment Anything Model 3 (SAM3) capable in segmenting Any Pathology Images? Digital pathology segmentation spans tissue-level and nuclei-level scales, where traditional methods often suffer from high annotation costs and poor…

Referring Expression Segmentation (RES) aims to segment image regions described by natural-language expressions, serving as a bridge between vision and language understanding. Existing RES methods, however, rely heavily on large annotated…

Open-Vocabulary Semantic Segmentation (OVSS) assigns pixel-level labels from an open set of text-defined categories, demanding reliable generalization to unseen classes at inference. Although modern vision-language models (VLMs) support…

Vision-language segmentation models such as SAM3 enable flexible, prompt-driven visual grounding, but inherit large, general-purpose text encoders originally designed for open-ended language understanding. In practice, segmentation prompts…

We present COD3S, a novel method for generating semantically diverse sentences using neural sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) models. Conditioned on an input, seq2seq models typically produce semantically and syntactically homogeneous sets of…

Open-vocabulary semantic segmentation (OVSS) aims to segment and recognize objects universally. Trained on extensive high-quality segmentation data, the segment anything model (SAM) has demonstrated remarkable universal segmentation…

Open-vocabulary semantic segmentation aims to segment an image into semantic regions according to text descriptions, which may not have been seen during training. Recent two-stage methods first generate class-agnostic mask proposals and…

Open-world object detection aims to localize and recognize objects beyond a fixed closed-set label space. It is commonly divided into two categories, i.e., open-vocabulary detection, which assumes a predefined category list at test time,…

The recent SAM 3 and SAM 3D have introduced significant advancements over the predecessor, SAM 2, particularly with the integration of language-based segmentation and enhanced 3D perception capabilities. SAM 3 supports zero-shot…

3D semantic segmentation provides high-level scene understanding for applications in robotics, autonomous systems, \textit{etc}. Traditional methods adapt exclusively to either task-specific goals (open-vocabulary segmentation) or scene…

We propose to improve multi-concept prompt fidelity in text-to-image diffusion models. We begin with common failure cases - prompts like "a cat and a dog" that sometimes yields images where one concept is missing, faint, or colliding…

Open-vocabulary semantic segmentation aims to assign semantic labels to each pixel without being constrained by a predefined set of categories. While Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) excels in zero-shot classification, it…

Hallucination detection is a critical step toward understanding the trustworthiness of modern language models (LMs). To achieve this goal, we re-examine existing detection approaches based on the self-consistency of LMs and uncover two…

Change Detection (CD) is a fundamental task in remote sensing. It monitors the evolution of land cover over time. Based on this, Open-Vocabulary Change Detection (OVCD) introduces a new requirement. It aims to reduce the reliance on…

Single-point annotation in visual tasks, with the goal of minimizing labelling costs, is becoming increasingly prominent in research. Recently, visual foundation models, such as Segment Anything (SAM), have gained widespread usage due to…

Branching and merging are common practices in collaborative software development, increasing developer's productivity. Despite such benefits, developers need to merge software and resolve merge conflicts. While modern merge techniques can…

In this work, we present COSINE, a unified open-world segmentation model that consolidates open-vocabulary segmentation and in-context segmentation with multi-modal prompts (e.g., text and image). COSINE exploits foundation models to…

As large-scale foundation models trained on billions of image--mask pairs covering a vast diversity of scenes, objects, and contexts, SAM and its upgraded version, SAM~2, have significantly influenced multiple fields within computer vision.…

Fine-grained semantic segmentation requires both precise localization and discrimination between visually similar classes. In FungiTastic, this problem is further complicated by a long-tailed distribution and strong variation in image…

In-context segmentation (ICS) aims to segment arbitrary concepts, e.g., objects, parts, or personalized instances, given one annotated visual examples. Existing work relies on (i) fine-tuning vision foundation models (VFMs), which improves…
