GazeRefine: Expert Gaze as a Test-Time Prompt for Training-Free Medical Image Segmentation

Read the original on arXiv AI →

GazeRefine is a training‑free framework that uses eye‑gaze data as an inference‑time prompt for zero‑shot medical image segmentation. It converts sparse, duration‑weighted fixations into foreground and background priors that initialize semantic prototypes in a frozen DINOv3 feature space, then iteratively refines these prototypes through discrimination, affinity propagation, and anchoring to the gaze guidance. The method achieves strong results on colonoscopy polyp segmentation and competitive performance on prostate MRI, demonstrating that gaze‑guided prototype refinement can enable segmentation without dense expert annotations or model fine‑tuning.

FoRIS: Progressive Foreground Refinement for Training-Free In-Context Segmentation

FoRIS is a training‑free in‑context segmentation framework that refines foreground masks through a coarse‑to‑fine process. It operates in three stages—Foreground Purification, Localization, and Consolidation—to suppress background noise, pinpoint target regions, and reconstruct complete foreground structures. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance, improving mIoU by 4.5 and 4.8 points in 1‑shot and 5‑shot settings respectively.

PR-MaGIC: Prompt Refinement Via Mask Decoder Gradient Flow For In-Context Segmentation

PR-MaGIC is a training‑free, test‑time framework that refines prompts for in‑context image segmentation by using gradient flow from the mask decoder of the Segment Anything Model (SAM). It integrates seamlessly into existing in‑context segmentation pipelines and employs a simple top‑1 selection strategy to stabilize performance. Extensive evaluations show that PR‑MaGIC consistently improves segmentation quality across multiple benchmarks without requiring additional training or architectural changes.
