Open-vocabulary semantic segmentation (OVSS) in remote sensing images aims to segment categories beyond a fixed label space. Recent SAM 3-based methods provide a promising training-free foundation, yet three key issues remain: (1) a single class-name prompt lacks sufficient semantic coverage for complex remote sensing categories; (2) expanding each category into multiple prompts introduces redundant online text encoding; and (3) directly aggregating multiple prompt responses propagates noisy activations into the final prediction. To address these issues, we propose ProC-SAM3, which calibrates SAM 3's prompt interface for remote sensing OVSS from three complementary aspects. First, we construct an offline prompt pool where a Category Matcher groups MLLM-generated candidates into per-category sets, and Expansion Constraints further refine each set using category-specific prior knowledge. Second, the resulting text embeddings are cached and reused across all test images, eliminating repeated text encoding. Third, we introduce Presence-Guided Residual Fusion to gate unreliable decoder outputs by prompt presence and confidence, followed by peak-preserving class aggregation that retains fine-grained activations for small and sparse objects. Experiments on eight benchmarks show that ProC-SAM3 achieves an average mIoU of 56.1%, outperforming the previous best training-free method by 3.9 percentage points.

Domain generalized semantic segmentation is an essential computer vision task, for which models only leverage source data to learn the capability of generalized semantic segmentation towards the unseen target domains. Previous works typically address this challenge by global style randomization or feature regularization. In this paper, we argue that given the observation that different local semantic regions perform different visual characteristics from the source domain to the target domain, methods focusing on global operations are hard to capture such regional discrepancies, thus failing to construct domain-invariant representations with the consistency from local to global level. Therefore, we propose the Semantic-Rearrangement-based Multi-Level Alignment (SRMA) to overcome this problem. SRMA first incorporates a Semantic Rearrangement Module (SRM), which conducts semantic region randomization to enhance the diversity of the source domain sufficiently. A Multi-Level Alignment module (MLA) is subsequently proposed with the help of such diversity to establish the global-regional-local consistent domain-invariant representations. By aligning features across randomized samples with domain-neutral knowledge at multiple levels, SRMA provides a more robust way to handle the source-target domain gap. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of SRMA over the current state-of-the-art works on various benchmarks.
