Researchers have developed a new method called Chain-of-Prompts (CoP) for cell instance segmentation, significantly reducing the annotation effort required. This training-free framework leverages foundation models like SAM by requiring only a single click per cell type, rather than individual clicks for each instance. CoP effectively segments all instances of a given type by exploiting the natural clustering within the foundation model's image encoder, achieving over 90% of per-instance performance with minimal annotation cost.
