The paper proposes a lightweight active‑vision pipeline that mimics biological foveation to perform semantic segmentation more efficiently. By selecting salient fixations, observing high‑resolution foveal patches, and using low‑resolution context, the method achieves 95.9% of baseline Top‑1 accuracy with only 4.7% of the computational cost, and recovers 90.6% of baseline object recall using 58.6% of the computation. The results demonstrate that sparse, selectively allocated observations can yield substantial semantic understanding, suggesting active vision as a viable alternative to uniform dense processing.

The paper proposes a lightweight active‑vision pipeline that mimics biological foveation to perform dense semantic segmentation more efficiently. By selecting salient fixations, it uses high‑resolution foveal views, low‑resolution context, and adaptive computation to accumulate semantic information. On ADE20K‑Object, a single foveated observation attains 95.9% of baseline Top‑1 accuracy with only 4.7% of the computational cost, and semantic accumulation recovers 90.6% of baseline recall using 58.6% of the computation.

The paper introduces OVRSISBench, a unified benchmark for open‑vocabulary remote sensing image segmentation, and evaluates existing OVS/OVRSIS models, uncovering their shortcomings in remote sensing contexts. Leveraging insights from this evaluation, the authors propose RSKT‑Seg, a new framework featuring a Multi‑Directional Cost Map Aggregation module, an Efficient Cost Map Fusion transformer, and a Remote Sensing Knowledge Transfer module. Experiments on the benchmark demonstrate that RSKT‑Seg outperforms strong baselines by +3.8 mIoU and +5.9 mACC while achieving twice the inference speed.
