SegMaFormer: A Hybrid State-Space and Transformer Model for Efficient Segmentation

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2603.22002v1 Announce Type: cross The advent of Transformer and Mamba-based architectures has significantly advanced 3D medical image segmentation by enabling global contextual modeling, a capability traditionally limited in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). However, state-of-the-art Transformer models often entail substantial computational complexity and parameter counts, which is particularly prohibitive for volumetric data and further exacerbated by the limited availability of annotated medical imaging datasets. To address these limitations, this work
