SeGDeP enhances reasoning segmentation by decoupling semantic and geometric prompts

Researchers have developed SeGDeP, a novel interface for reasoning segmentation that disentangles semantic understanding from spatial localization. This approach uses separate branches for semantic prompts and geometric projections, which then jointly inform a mask decoder. SeGDeP-4B demonstrates strong performance on benchmarks like RefCOCO+ and ReasonSeg, achieving these results by adapting a small fraction of the Qwen3-VL model's parameters via LoRA. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more precise and interpretable AI systems for tasks requiring both understanding and spatial awareness.

    SeGDeP: Semantic- and Geometric-Aware Decoupled Prompts for Reasoning Segmentation

    Reasoning segmentation converts an implicit linguistic conclusion into a precise mask, requiring both semantic identification and spatial grounding. Existing MLLM-segmenter interfaces either use a special trigger or compress both signals into one context, although they receive di…
