Cross-domain Few-shot Segmentation (CD-FSS) aims to transfer knowledge learned from source domain to distinct target domains, segmenting unseen target classes with only a few annotated samples. Although existing methods have made significant progress, they still rely on training or fine-tuning processes, which incur high computational costs and risk overfitting.

arXiv:2607. 28967v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompt tuning adapts vision--language models with few trainable parameters, but existing approaches trade off efficiency and adaptation: static textual prompts can overfit source classes, image-conditioned prompts add per-instance computation, and multimodal tuning modifies the visual branch.

Multimodal based approaches often outperform single modality approaches in downstream tasks as the different modalities provide complementary information, yet acquiring paired clinical data remains a significant challenge in real world scenarios. While cross-modal knowledge distillation addresses this, existing methods often struggle with large modality gaps and the propagation of noise from uncertain source-domain predictions.
