DishSeg24k: A Large-Scale Benchmark for Food Segmentation with Stochastic Expert Decoding

Food segmentation is essential for applications such as intelligent catering, dietary assessment, and recommendation. However, existing benchmarks fail to capture the complexity of real-world dining scenes. The challenges of dense inter-dish overlap, fine-grained class similarity, and extreme long-tail class distributions exceed the fidelity of current datasets. To fill this gap, we introduce \textbf{DishSeg24k}, a large-scale dish-level segmentation benchmark with 24,096 images, 112,281 instances, and 278 fine-grained categories in real-world dining environments. Based on DishSeg24k, we further propose \textbf{Food Expert-Adaptive Segmentation Transformers (FEAST)} to address these challenges. FEAST models query-based decoding as a Markov Decision Process (MDP), where each decoder layer update is treated as a sequential decision step that explores uncertainty along dish boundaries. We further redesign the decoder with a reinforcement learning (RL)-guided Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) module, in which a dual-critic decoupled optimization scheme separates task-oriented query refinement from structure-aware expert routing. This design promotes expert specialization and prevents expert collapse under long-tail category distributions. Finally, extensive experiments on DishSeg24k demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance of FEAST, which outperforms previous methods by {+3.21\%} mIoU, {+3.68\%} mDice, and {+4.00\%} mAcc, respectively. We further validate the effectiveness of FEAST on FoodSeg103. The dataset and code will be publicly released.
