构建锌合金微结构中间相分割新基准，提升小目标与低对比度场景下的分割精度。

Zinc-based alloys are indispensable emerging absorbable metallic biomaterials, and their macroscopic performance is governed by microstructural characteristics. Intermediate phases-key microstructural constituents-are pivotal in regulating mechanical and functional properties. However, intermediate phase segmentation in zinc alloy microstructures faces formidable challenges: scarce annotated datasets, low contrast, difficulty detecting small targets, and heterogeneous morphologies. To this end, we construct IPSM-Bench, the largest high-quality dataset for zinc-alloy intermediate phase segmentation. Furthermore, we propose SCoP-SAM, a new Spatial Context Prior-guided SAM method that leverages the gradient structure and grayscale properties of intermediate phases to capture spatial context priors and incorporates them into the entire SAM encoding-decoding process, improving segmentation performance. Based on the proposed IPSM-Bench, we establish a new benchmark for intermediate phase segmentation to systematically evaluate state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods and advance research on zinc alloy microstructure analysis. Extensive experiments on IPSM-Bench and additional public alloy benchmarks demonstrate that our SCoP-SAM not only achieves SOTA performance for zinc-alloy intermediate phase segmentation but also generalizes remarkably well to other alloy scenarios.
