Authors Archit A, Pape C Journal Arxiv Citation arXiv:2603.17845. Abstract Cell segmentation is a fundamental task in microscopy image analysis. Several foundation models for cell segmentation have been introduced, virtually all of them are extensions of Segment Anything Model (SAM), improving it for microscopy data. Recently, SAM2 and SAM3 have
