ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Adapters have become a widely adopted strategy for efficient fine-tuning of foundation models, particularly in resource-constrained settings. However, their performance under extreme data scarcity—common in medical imaging due to high annotation costs, privacy regulations, and fragmented datasets—remains underexplored. In this work, we present the first comprehensive study of adapter-based fine-tuning for vision foundation models in low-data medical imaging scenarios. We find that, contrary to their promise, conventional Adapters can degrade performance under severe data constraints, performing even worse than simple linear probing when trained on less than 1\% of the corresponding training data.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Segmentation in pathology image requires handling out-of-domain tissue morphologies and new pathologies beyond training distributions, where traditional closed-set segmentation approaches fail to generalize. Reasoning segmentation enables zero-shot generalization via prompting with text queries. However, existing reasoning segmentation models face three barriers when applied to pathology: (1) the vision encoder lack pathology-specific knowledge and robustness to staining variations, (2) the large language model (LLM) backbone for reasoning fails to identify whether it has gathered sufficient semantic context to trigger the segmentation output, and (3) no reasoning segmentation benchmarks and datasets exist for pathology analysis. Consequently, we introduce PathChat-SegR1, a reasoning segmentation model built upon pathology-specific vision encoders trained with a novel stain-invariant self-distillation for robust pathology image representations.
