Moondream Segmentation: From Words to Masks

📰 ArXiv cs.AI

Moondream Segmentation is a vision-language model that refines image segmentation masks using reinforcement learning

advanced Published 6 Apr 2026
Action Steps
  1. Utilize a vision-language model like Moondream 3 as a base
  2. Autoregressively decode a vector path from an image and referring expression
  3. Iteratively refine the rasterized mask into a final detailed mask using reinforcement learning
  4. Optimize mask quality through rollouts from the reinforcement learning stage
