Exemplar is a few‑shot segmentation method that combines a frozen DINOv3 backbone with a fixed bank of classical native‑resolution filter responses in a single lightweight head. Trained only from support masks, it achieves a mean foreground intersection‑over‑union of 0.782 across eleven biomedical imaging datasets, outperforming either component alone and surpassing five other few‑shot methods in 54 of 55 comparisons. With a single annotated mask, Exemplar reaches 0.703, higher than a from‑scratch nnU‑Net trained on the same mask, and while nnU‑Net eventually overtakes it with eight masks, it requires 16–77× longer to fit.

arXiv:2607. 14509v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper describes DS@GT ARC's third-place solution to the PlantCLEF 2026 challenge on multi-species plant identification in vegetation quadrat images, where systems must predict every species present in high-resolution (~3000 x 3000 pixel) plot photographs while training only on single-label images of individual plants.

PlantC2USeg is a deep transfer‑learning framework that uses cross‑scale consistency learning and an information‑restricted decoder to improve plant point cloud segmentation. It achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on Soybean3D and ShapeNet Part, and demonstrates strong few‑shot generalization across species and sensing conditions. The method reduces the need for large annotated datasets and lowers adaptation overhead for new plant species.
