Abstract (arXiv)

This report presents our solution for the ICRA 2026 GOOSE 2D Fine-Grained Semantic Segmentation Challenge, which requires parsing unstructured outdoor scenes from four camera platforms into 56 fine-grained categories. Our approach pairs foundation vision encoders (including DINOv3, SigLIP2, and InternImage) with a Mask2Former decoder, and trains them with a strong recipe including long training schedules, exponential moving average, a larger crop size, and multi-scale plus flip test-time augmentation. The three encoders, chosen for their complementary pretraining objectives, are combined into a pretraining-diverse ensemble through per-class validation-IoU weighting. Evaluated on the official GOOSE test set, our submission achieves 75.40% composite mIoU and wins the second place of the challenge. Our study further shows that the encoder's pretraining recipe, rather than its parameter count or the decoder design, is the dominant factor for accuracy on this benchmark.
