FoRIS is a training‑free in‑context segmentation framework that refines foreground masks through a coarse‑to‑fine process. It operates in three stages—Foreground Purification, Localization, and Consolidation—to suppress background noise, pinpoint target regions, and reconstruct complete foreground structures. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance, improving mIoU by 4.5 and 4.8 points in 1‑shot and 5‑shot settings respectively.

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.
Personalized segmentation and personalized retrieval both aim to identify the same physical object across different images. While the former localizes the object within a target image, the latter retr...
Video panoptic segmentation (VPS) aims to jointly detect, segment, and track all objects while partitioning the video into semantically consistent regions. We introduce the task setting of unsupervised VPS, omitting any human supervision.

SAM‑V is a geometry‑aware extension of the Segment Anything Model (SAM) that integrates 3D priors from a feed‑forward geometry model (VGGT) into 2D segmentation. It uses a prompt‑fusion mechanism to combine sparse SAM prompts with view‑specific camera tokens and local VGGT features, enabling a mask decoder that attends to both dense 2D and 3D cues. The resulting end‑to‑end system produces consistent multi‑view instance segmentation in a single forward pass, achieving significant gains on the IGGT 3D tracking benchmark without offline mask matching or explicit 3D reconstruction.
