The paper presents an automated segmentation pipeline for whole‑slide histopathology images of colorectal cancer, labeling tumor grades 1‑3 and normal mucosa. It employs dense prediction transformers with multiple encoder backbones, overlapping patches, test‑time augmentation, and an adaptive augmentation policy guided by large language models. The approach, combined with soft‑voting ensembles and post‑processing refinements, raises the F1 score from 62.92 to 69.84 on a colorectal cancer grade dataset.

The study evaluates four deep‑learning segmentation architectures—Unet, PSPNet, Linknet, and FPN—paired with six pre‑trained encoders to predict COVID‑19 lesions in CT images. Experiments on three COVID‑19 CT datasets show high accuracy, achieving a maximum binary F1‑score of 98% and multi‑class F1‑scores of 75% and 77%. The work aims to provide a standardized performance benchmark for medical image segmentation and a reference for other imaging scenarios.

GazeRefine is a training‑free framework that uses eye‑gaze data as an inference‑time prompt for zero‑shot medical image segmentation. It converts sparse, duration‑weighted fixations into foreground and background priors that initialize semantic prototypes in a frozen DINOv3 feature space, then iteratively refines these prototypes through discrimination, affinity propagation, and anchoring to the gaze guidance. The method achieves strong results on colonoscopy polyp segmentation and competitive performance on prostate MRI, demonstrating that gaze‑guided prototype refinement can enable segmentation without dense expert annotations or model fine‑tuning.
