SAM 2.1 fine-tuned on facades and interiors: mIoU rises from 49.9% to 69.6%
Researchers fine-tuned SAM 2.1 on 2679 images of 42 buildings, lifting mIoU across 11 building-element classes from 49.9% to 69.6%. The model was integrated into…

SAIL Keeps Its Target in Frame Using Audio and Text, and Beats Rivals on Two Benchmarks
A new preprint introduces SAIL, a framework for segmenting objects from video, audio and text. Two tokens counter target loss; on two benchmarks it beats AVS…

Wearable Stereo Camera Estimates Food Volume With 9.1% Error, No Reference Object Needed
A pipeline of FoundationStereo, SAM 2 and TSDF builds a 3D model of a meal from a single stereo clip from a wearable. Mean volume error across five dishes: 9.1%.
