MoSSGate: Memory-Modulated State-Space Gating for Skin Lesion Segmentation

MoSSGate is a plug‑and‑play module for U‑Net that improves skin lesion segmentation by combining boundary‑aware spatial gating, an external memory modulator, and parallel 2D state‑space modeling for efficient global context aggregation. The design limits long‑range propagation to informative regions, adapts dynamically to each sample, and preserves sharp lesion boundaries while keeping computational cost low. Experiments on ISIC 2017 and 2018 show state‑of‑the‑art accuracy (86.3%/85.9% mIoU, 92.6%/90.6% Dice) with fewer FLOPs than most CNN baselines.

InstEditSeg: Instruction-Driven Image Editing for Polyp and Skin Lesion Segmentation

InstEditSeg is a generative framework that treats medical segmentation as an instruction-driven image editing task. Instead of producing binary masks, it renders a color-coded overlay on the original image guided by textual instructions, leveraging latent diffusion models to align with natural image distributions and reduce domain gaps. The method incorporates a DINOv3 visual encoder and a multi-scale feature pyramid fused into the diffusion U‑Net, and uses a dual‑branch classifier‑free guidance strategy to lower inference cost, achieving competitive accuracy on polyp and skin lesion datasets while improving cross‑domain generalization and multi‑lesion segmentation.

Beyond Accuracy: Uncertainty-Guided Boundary Refinement for Reliable Biomedical Image Segmentation

The paper introduces RABR-Net, a two‑stage framework that refines biomedical image segmentation boundaries by combining multiple uncertainty measures into a boundary‑aware representation. A gated residual refiner uses this representation to selectively correct uncertain boundary pixels while preserving confident regions, leading to modest but statistically significant improvements in Dice, Boundary Dice, and HD95 metrics on a held‑out test set. Qualitative results show the refiner focuses on uncertain cytoplasm and nucleus boundaries, though calibration does not automatically improve.
