Figure, table and section ledger
Editorial contribution type: Architecture & representation (primary).
Layout extraction, not a required paper template. Counts are distinct caption labels; a multi-panel figure counts once. Section spans are estimated from heading positions, including floats and whitespace. Method and limitations.

Extraction notes: No attached appendix boundary detected. Zero means no recognized caption, not independently verified absence.
Section-by-section lengths and source pages
The title/abstract/front matter precede the first numbered heading. A span ends at the next detected top-level heading, not at the last sentence; end-page whitespace is included. References and statements are listed separately. These are not measurements of text-only or artwork area.

No recognized caption labels.
Separate source files—excluded from canonical-PDF totals
A separate author version may repeat main text and references. Whole-file lengths and counts are not extra appendix material and are never added to the canonical PDF totals. Read the study's source scope for which sections received substantive reading versus layout inspection.
Additional source 1
Separate PDF (or ZIP containing it): whole-file layout of 6 physical pages; 5 detected figures and 4 tables. These may include overlapping main-text material.
Located appendix only: starts on physical p.1; ≈ 5.94 page-equivalents, 5 figure labels and 4 table labels. This interval is distinct from the whole file.
Argument and organization
- 3. Method
Explains expert tokens, routing, prompt tokenization, objective, and data curation.
- 4. Experiments
Separates in-domain, out-of-domain, decoder-unfreezing, and expert-configuration evidence.
Problem, claim and contribution
The paper jointly identifies modality heterogeneity and unreliable heterogeneous supervision, linking model adaptation with data curation.
Section 1 · Main paper · Additional source 2
Argument and section order
The data-construction subsection follows architectural/loss details, while evaluation distinguishes the frozen-decoder setting from an unfrozen extension.
§3.6; §4.2 · Main paper · Additional source 2
Figures, captions and visual explanation
The wide overview marks frozen and trainable modules and displays original-token versus expert-token outputs, making the changed decoder interface visible.

Tables, comparisons and evidence
Out-of-domain results include organ-level rows and preserve exceptions; a separate table explicitly labels the decoder-unfreezing experiment.

Appendix and reproducibility
The supplement reports dataset composition and prompt conditions, and explicitly notes that nnU-Net is automatic whereas SegMoTE uses interaction.
Supplement Table 5 and Table 8 · Main paper · Additional source 2
Clarity and writing conventions
Expert-selection statistics and configuration sweeps are presented as diagnostics alongside segmentation metrics rather than only a model diagram.

What to reuse—and what not to infer
Transferable lesson: For interactive adaptation, keep prompt privileges, frozen/unfrozen parameters, dataset curation, and organ-level transfer conditions visible.
Boundary: Interactive and automatic segmentation scores are not like-for-like without an interaction budget; low-dimensional feature plots do not prove data quality.
Apply this lesson using the argument and evidence worksheet.
