arXiv:2508. 12745v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Image set classification (ISC), which can be viewed as a task of comparing similarities between sets consisting of unordered heterogeneous images with variable quantities and qualities, has attracted growing research attention in recent years.
Composed Image Retrieval (CIR) represents a challenging retrieval task that targets locating specific images through multimodal inputs. Despite recent progress in CIR techniques, prior approaches often overlook cases where images appear visually alike yet differ in attributes, potentially undermining both multimodal feature fusion and similarity modeling.
Cross-domain Few-shot Segmentation (CD-FSS) aims to transfer knowledge learned from source domain to distinct target domains, segmenting unseen target classes with only a few annotated samples. Although existing methods have made significant progress, they still rely on training or fine-tuning processes, which incur high computational costs and risk overfitting.
arXiv:2607. 09104v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While the growing availability of image data has driven significant advances, labeling datasets remains costly and time-consuming.
arXiv:2606. 15134v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision encoders for retrieval are typically trained with class-label supervision: each training pair reduces to a scalar that uniformly pushes the embedding apart or pulls it together, as if every visual attribute either differed or matched.
arXiv:2606. 08156v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision Transformers (ViTs) achieve strong performance but suffer from high computational costs due to quadratic self-attention complexity.
Tabular-to-image methods have emerged as novel approaches to leverage the high predictive performance of convolutional neural networks and vision transformers. They convert tabular data into image representations, mapping each feature at a fixed pixel location derived from a dimensionality-reduction method (e.

arXiv:2606. 17406v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Feature extraction involves the identification and extraction of salient characteristics or patterns, including edges, textures, shapes, and color attributes.
arXiv:2608. 09091v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transfer learning is particularly useful in settings with limited training data, and within image classification it is common to transfer learn upon massive datasets like ImageNet , CIFAR-100, or COCO .
Adapting CLIP for zero-shot sketch-based image retrieval (ZS-SBIR) via prompt learning faces a fundamental tension: the model must bridge the sketch-photo domain gap through task-specific adaptation, yet the added flexibility risks overfitting to seen training categories and eroding CLIP's zero-shot generalization. We present SeCo-SBIR, a semantically consistent prompt learning framework that resolves this tension from both sides.
arXiv:2606. 19882v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) enhance the interpretability of deep learning networks by aligning the features extracted from images with natural concepts.
arXiv:2607. 22139v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate pixel-level classification of coronary angiograms is critical for cardiovascular disease assessment, yet the field lacks standardized evaluation protocols.
