UnSAMv2: Self-Supervised Learning Enables Segment Anything at Any Granularity

UnSAMv2 is a self‑supervised extension of the Segment Anything Model that can segment objects at any granularity without human annotations. It discovers mask‑granularity pairs and introduces a granularity control embedding for continuous scale adjustment, requiring only 6K unlabeled images and 0.02% extra parameters. The model outperforms SAM/SAM‑2 across 11+ benchmarks, improving metrics such as 1‑IoU from 58.0 to 73.1 and achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on language‑guided segmentation.

SetCon: Towards Open-Ended Referring Segmentation via Set-Level Concept Prediction

SetCon reformulates open-ended referring segmentation as set-level concept prediction, using LVLM-generated natural-language concepts instead of segmentation-specific tokens. It employs a hierarchical semantic decomposition that first predicts a shared set-level concept and then refines it into fine-grained concept groups aligned with target subsets. The method, supported by a two-stage annotation pipeline adding hierarchical semantic supervision, achieves state-of-the-art results on multiple image and video benchmarks, with performance gains increasing as the number of referred targets grows.
