ArXi:2605.08557v1 Announce Type: cross Parameter-efficient adaptation of pretrained vision models is commonly performed through linear probes, prompts, low-rank updates, or lightweight residual modules. While effective, these methods usually treat adaptation as a discrete Euclidean perturbation of frozen representations, without explicitly modeling the geometry of the task-induced feature displacement. We propose \textsc{MC-RFM}, a mixed-curvature Riemannian flow-matching framework for few-shot adaptation of frozen visual backbones.
