We present SimSAM, a method for zero-shot medical image segmentation that simulates user interactions with the Segment Anything Model (SAM) to enable automatic segmentation without manual prompts. By learning to predict effective interaction points, SimSAM achieves competitive performance with fully supervised methods while requiring no target-domain training data.
