Don't waste SAM

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Meta AI has recently released the Segment Anything Model (SAM), which demonstrates exceptional zero-shot image segmentation performance across various tasks with remarkable accuracy. Despite its inability to provide accurate segmentation across multiple research fields, SAM still serves as a valuable starting point for supporting the segmentation pipeline process, particularly for tasks that require extensive and senior skills annotations.

Object-centric LeJEPA

arXiv:2607. 02404v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image encoders trained with LeJEPA can deliver strong features for downstream tasks, but, like other image-level self-supervised methods, typically require large training datasets.

ActiveSAM: Image-Conditional Class Pruning for Fast and Accurate Open-Vocabulary Segmentation

arXiv:2606. 16996v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Segment Anything Model 3 (SAM 3) provides a strong frozen backbone for concept-prompted segmentation, but applying it directly to open-vocabulary semantic segmentation (OVSS) is inefficient: full-resolution decoding is typically run over the entire dataset vocabulary, whereas each image contains only a small active subset of classes.

SAMRI-3D: Adapting SAM2 for 3D MRI Segmentation with Global Volume Tokens

Foundation models such as Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM2) have transformed natural-image and video segmentation, and recent work has begun adapting them to medical imaging. These adaptations, however, are largely general-purpose models that treat MRI as one modality among many; large-scale, MRI-specific modelling and benchmarking remain limited, even though MRI's low soft-tissue contrast leaves many boundaries effectively invisible on individual slices.
