The paper explores the generalizability of pre-trained models for polyp segmentation. Recent studies have shown that self-supervised pretraining improves fine-tuned performance, and models with Vision Transformer (ViT-B) backbones outperform those with ResNet50 backbones. This study assesses how well these models generalize to new data distributions, which is crucial in real-world deployment scenarios. The results confirm the previous findings on pre-training pipelines for polyp segmentation, but surprisingly suggest that ResNet50-based models generalize better despite being outperformed by ViT-B models on the same test set.

This paper looks at how well AI models work when they’re tested with new data. It’s like trying a recipe you found online and seeing if it works in your own kitchen. The study shows that pre-training AI models makes them better at recognizing polyps, and models using certain types of “backbones” (like a skeleton for the model) do better than others. But here’s the cool thing: even though some models are good at recognizing polyps on one set of data, they’re actually better at generalizing to new data when using different backbones.
