Umphrey's McGee has a unique approach to improvisation, based on intense visual communication during songs. So for instance there are special handsigns for when someone should take the lead or hold back, or when it is time for a transition between different parts of a given song. They also had improvisational sequences called Jimmy Stewarts that were somewhat more planned out than others, in that for instance a specific order of time signatures or genres was agreed on beforehand. In recent years however they developed a more purely ad hoc approach.
