BioCAP: Exploiting Synthetic Captions Beyond Labels in Biological Foundation Models
Ziheng Zhang, Xinyue Ma, Arpita Chowdhury +9
This work investigates descriptive captions as an additional source of supervision for biological multimodal foundation models. Images and captions can be viewed as complementary s…
BioCLIP 2: Emergent Properties from Scaling Hierarchical Contrastive Learning
Jianyang Gu, Samuel Stevens, Elizabeth G Campolongo +13
Foundation models trained at scale exhibit remarkable emergent behaviors, learning new capabilities beyond their initial training objectives. We find such emergent behaviors in bio…
Static Segmentation by Tracking: A Label-Efficient Approach for Fine-Grained Specimen Image Segmentation
Zhenyang Feng, Zihe Wang, Jianyang Gu +22
We study image segmentation in the biological domain, particularly trait segmentation from specimen images (e.g., butterfly wing stripes, beetle elytra). This fine-grained task is…
