RP-SAM2: Refining Point Prompts for Stable Surgical Instrument Segmentation
arXiv ·
Researchers from MBZUAI introduced RP-SAM2, a method to improve surgical instrument segmentation by refining point prompts for more stable results. RP-SAM2 uses a novel shift block and compound loss function to reduce sensitivity to point prompt placement, improving segmentation accuracy in data-constrained settings. Experiments on the Cataract1k and CaDIS datasets show that RP-SAM2 enhances segmentation accuracy and reduces variance compared to SAM2, with code available on GitHub.
