This paper explores uncertainty quantification (UQ) methods for foundation models used in semantic segmentation. Researchers evaluated four UQ approaches—Monte Carlo Dropout, Deep Sub-Ensemble, Test-Time Augmentation, and Evidential Deep Learning—on a fine-tuned DPT decoder with a SAM2 encoder. The study benchmarks these methods across various datasets, including Cityscapes and NYUv2, and in out-of-domain scenarios. Findings reveal trade-offs between accuracy, reliability, and computational cost, indicating potential and limitations for real-world deployment of uncertainty-aware foundation models. AI
