this is a really cool and powerful trick for image segmentation with sam without prompting!
> You can exploit the small similarity that exists between microscopy images to trick the model into propagating the object mask, as if it was a video
lillyguisnet (@lillyguisnet): In 2023 I used a combination of SAM1 + a custom vit classifier to ID and automate the segmentation of my microscopy images.
Today, SAM3.1 can do it zero-shot. (-ish)
The difficulty with extracting a mask from images such as those is that they are full of other crap you don’t
