We introduce ITTO, a challenging new benchmark suite for evaluating and diagnosing the capabilities and limitations of point tracking methods. Our videos are sourced from existing datasets and egocentric real-world recordings, with highquality human annotations collected through a multi-stage pipeline. ITTO captures the motion complexity, occlusion patterns, and object diversity characteristic of real-world scenes - factors that are largely absent in current benchmarks. We conduct a rigorous analysis of state-of-the-art tracking methods on ITTO, breaking down performance along key axes of motion complexity. Our findings reveal that existing trackers struggle with these challenges, particularly in re-identifying points after occlusion, highlighting critical failure modes. These results point to the need for new modeling approaches tailored to real-world dynamics. We envision ITTO as a foundation testbed for advancing point tracking and guiding the development of more robust tracking algorithms.
Multimodal Causal Reasoning for UAVObject Detection
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) object detection faces significant challenges due to complex environmental conditions and different imaging conditions. These factors introduce significant changes in scale and appearance, particularly for small objects that occupy limited pixels and exhibit limited information, complicating detection tasks. To address these challenges, we propose a Multimodel Causal Reasoning framework based on YOLO backbone for UAVObject Detection (MCR-UOD). The key idea is to use the backdoor adjustment to discover the condition-invariant object representation for easy detection. Specifically, the YOLO backbone is first adjusted to incorporate the pre-trained vision-language model.
Mitigating Occlusions in Virtual Try-On via A Simple-Yet-Effective Mask-Free Framework
This paper investigates the occlusion problems in virtual try-on (VTON) tasks. According to how they affect the try-on results, the occlusion issues of existing VTON methods can be grouped into two categories: (1) Inherent Occlusions, which are the ghosts of the clothing from reference input images that exist in the try-on results.
Gaze-VLM: Bridging Gaze and VLMs via Attention Regularization for Egocentric Understanding
Eye gaze offers valuable cues about attention, short-term intent, and future actions, making it a powerful signal for modeling egocentric behavior. In this work, we propose a gaze-regularized framework that enhances VLMs for two key egocentric understanding tasks: fine-grained future event prediction and current activity understanding. Unlike prior approaches that rely solely on visual inputs or use gaze as an auxiliary input signal, our method uses gaze only during training. We introduce a gaze-regularized attention mechanism that aligns model focus with human visual gaze. This design is flexible and modular, allowing it to generalize across multiple VLM architectures that utilize attention. Experimental results show that our approach improves semantic prediction scores by up to 11% for future event prediction and around 7% for current activity understanding, compared to the corresponding baseline models trained without gaze regularization.
BEDLAM2.0: Synthetic Humans and Cameras in Motion
Inferring 3D human motion from video remains a challenging problem with many applications. While traditional methods estimate the human in image coordinates, many applications require human motion to be estimated in world coordinates. This is particularly challenging when there is both human and camera motion. Progress on this topic has been limited by the lack of rich video data with ground truth human and camera movement. We address this with BEDLAM2.0, a new dataset that goes beyond the popular BEDLAM dataset in important ways.
MutualVPR: AMutual Learning Framework for Resolving Supervision Inconsistencies via Adaptive Clustering
Visual Place Recognition (VPR) enables robust localization through image retrieval based on learned descriptors. However, drastic appearance variations of images at the same place caused by viewpoint changes can lead to inconsistent supervision signals, thereby degrading descriptor learning. Existing methods either rely on manually defined cropping rules or labeled data for view differentiation, but they suffer from two major limitations: (1) reliance on labels or handcrafted rules restricts generalization capability; (2) even within the same view direction, occlusions can introduce feature ambiguity. To address these issues, we propose MutualVPR, a mutual learning framework that integrates unsupervised view self-classification and descriptor learning. We first group images by geographic coordinates, then iteratively refine the clusters using K-means to dynamically assign place categories without orientation labels. Specifically, we adopt a DINOv2-based encoder to initialize the clustering.
