Researchers have developed UINO-FSS, a novel framework for few-shot semantic segmentation that unifies knowledge from multiple foundation models into a single-encoder architecture. This approach addresses the limitations of dual-branch designs by integrating features from DINOv2 and SAM through coarse-to-fine multimodal distillation. The framework incorporates a bottleneck adapter for embedding alignment, a meta-visual prompt generator, and a mask decoder, enhanced by Mamba-based correlation mining. Experiments on PASCAL-5$^i$ and COCO-20$^i$ datasets show UINO-FSS achieving new state-of-the-art results in the 1-shot setting. AI
