ProCAP introduces a probabilistic cross-attentive prompt learning framework for vision-language models like CLIP, enabling improved cross-modal interaction without updating the backbone. It jointly learns visual and textual prompt tokens, linking them via stacked bidirectional multi-head cross-attention to refine each branch across prompt depth. The method incorporates Gaussian parameterization of prompt tokens, lightweight KL and L2 regularization, and a compact symmetric InfoNCE head to align image features with class-level text representations, achieving strong few-shot base-to-novel performance and competitive transfer results across multiple datasets and benchmarks.

The paper introduces EvoPrompt, a framework for adapting vision‑language models to new tasks with limited data while preventing catastrophic forgetting. EvoPrompt uses a Modality‑Shared Prompt Projector to create hierarchical prompts and an evolutionary training strategy that separates low‑rank updates into directional and magnitude components, preserving learned semantic directions. Experiments show that EvoPrompt achieves state‑of‑the‑art few‑shot performance while maintaining the original zero‑shot capabilities of the pre‑trained models.

arXiv:2607. 28967v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompt tuning adapts vision--language models with few trainable parameters, but existing approaches trade off efficiency and adaptation: static textual prompts can overfit source classes, image-conditioned prompts add per-instance computation, and multimodal tuning modifies the visual branch.

Prompt-driven vision-language models (VLMs) hold immense promise for accelerating dense remote sensing (RS) annotation, but static models suffer from severe performance degradation when deployed on novel scenes, unseen categories, or visually confusing backgrounds. Moreover, existing unified paradigms primarily rely on intra-image specific prompts, lacking flexible task routing to adapt to multi-intent operational workflows.
Hidden‑Shot introduces an implicit prompt mechanism that extracts task‑specific visual information and merges it with in‑task processing to boost one‑shot performance on new low‑level vision tasks. The method injects this prompt cost‑effectively while minimally altering the base generalist model’s architecture. A data‑driven evaluation framework, C/U assessment, is proposed to systematically test generalization across conventional and unconventional tasks, and experiments on seven and ten datasets show Hidden‑Shot outperforming state‑of‑the‑art models.
