0.5\%>100\%: Bidirectional Reciprocal Learning for Referring Image Segmentation

The paper introduces Bidirectional Reciprocal Learning (BRL), a parameter‑efficient fine‑tuning framework for referring image segmentation that operates on frozen vision foundation models. BRL employs two lightweight adapters—Reciprocal Attention Adapter (RAA) for token‑level cross‑modal attention and Reciprocal Gate Adapter (RGA) for channel‑level gating—to enable hierarchical, bidirectional information flow between vision and language. Experiments on RefCOCO, RefCOCO+, and RefCOCOg show that BRL outperforms existing methods while updating fewer than 0.5% of backbone parameters.

MTMed3D: A Multi-Task Transformer-Based Model for 3D Medical Imaging

MTMed3D is a multi-task Transformer-based model that jointly performs 3D detection, segmentation, and classification in medical imaging. It uses a shared Transformer encoder to produce multi-scale features, with separate CNN decoders for each task. Evaluated on BraTS 2018 and 2019, it achieves strong results, especially in detection, while reducing computational cost and inference time compared to single-task models.

Reinforcement Learning Inspired Black-box Adversarial Attacks for Computer Vision

The paper introduces RIBA, a reinforcement‑learning inspired black‑box adversarial attack that generates perturbations for neural networks with fewer queries than existing methods. RIBA achieves a 25.4% reduction in median queries on ResNet‑18/Cifar10 and a 22.5% reduction on Vit‑B/16/ImageNet, while matching white‑box attack performance on an adversarially trained model.
