FoRIS: Progressive Foreground Refinement for Training-Free In-Context Segmentation

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.

NAIMA: Semantics Aware RGB Guided Depth Super-Resolution

The paper introduces NAIMA, a guided depth super‑resolution framework that leverages global contextual semantic priors from pretrained vision transformer token embeddings. Its Guided Token Attention (GTA) module uses depth encodings as queries to attend over semantic tokens, with a zero‑initialized gate controlling the influence of semantic evidence. NAIMA achieves competitive in‑distribution performance while delivering superior cross‑dataset generalization without relying on decoded priors or auxiliary objectives.

Prior-SG: Task and Prior Driven Region Segmentation for Scene Graphs in Arbitrarily-Structured Environments

Hierarchical 3D scene graphs are a promising representation for high-level spatial reasoning in autonomous mobile platforms. However, existing extraction frameworks typically rely on purely local visual clustering or strict geometric heuristics, such as wall-separated rooms, which fail in open-plan or arbitrarily-structured environments.

Privacy-Preserving Semantic Segmentation from High-Resolution Depth and Ultra-Low-Resolution RGB

The paper introduces a privacy‑preserving approach for semantic segmentation that fuses high‑resolution depth with ultra‑low‑resolution RGB images. A joint 2D framework uses depth to guide RGB reconstruction and RGB‑D segmentation, while an end‑to‑end 2D‑to‑3D pipeline consolidates 2D features for 3D segmentation. Experiments on ScanNet demonstrate superior 2D and 3D performance compared to other privacy‑preserving methods, strong zero‑shot transfer to SUN RGB‑D and SceneNN, and reduced recoverability of sensitive data, with real‑robot tests showing effective object‑goal navigation.
