Bridging the Semantic Chasm: Synergistic Conceptual Anchoring for Generalized Few-Shot and Zero-Shot OOD Perception

About

This manuscript presents a pioneering Synergistic Neural Agents Network (SynerNet) framework designed to mitigate the phenomenon of cross-modal alignment degeneration in Vision-Language Models (VLMs) when encountering Out-of-Distribution (OOD) concepts. Specifically, four specialized computational units - visual perception, linguistic context, nominal embedding, and global coordination - collaboratively rectify modality disparities via a structured message-propagation protocol. The principal contributions encompass a multi-agent latent space nomenclature acquisition framework, a semantic context-interchange algorithm for enhanced few-shot adaptation, and an adaptive dynamic equilibrium mechanism. Empirical evaluations conducted on the VISTA-Beyond benchmark demonstrate that SynerNet yields substantial performance augmentations in both few-shot and zero-shot scenarios, exhibiting precision improvements ranging from 1.2% to 5.4% across a diverse array of domains.
