Audio-Visual Segmentation (AVS) aims to identify and segment sound-producing objects in videos by leveraging both visual and audio modalities. It has emerged as a significant research area in multimodal perception, enabling fine-grained…
Multi-task visual grounding (MTVG) includes two sub-tasks, i.e., Referring Expression Comprehension (REC) and Referring Expression Segmentation (RES). The existing representative approaches generally follow the research pipeline which…
Tracking and segmenting multiple similar objects with distinct or complex parts in long-term videos is particularly challenging due to the ambiguity in identifying target components and the confusion caused by occlusion, background clutter,…
Audio-Visual Segmentation (AVS) aims to achieve pixel-level localization of sound sources in videos, while Audio-Visual Semantic Segmentation (AVSS), as an extension of AVS, further pursues semantic understanding of audio-visual scenes.…
Visual object tracking and segmentation in omnidirectional videos are challenging due to the wide field-of-view and large spherical distortion brought by 360{\deg} images. To alleviate these problems, we introduce a novel representation,…
Given an object mask, Semi-supervised Video Object Segmentation (SVOS) technique aims to track and segment the object across video frames, serving as a fundamental task in computer vision. Although recent memory-based methods demonstrate…
Visual sound localization is a typical and challenging problem that predicts the location of objects corresponding to the sound source in a video. Previous methods mainly used the audio-visual association between global audio and one-scale…
Predictive applications of machine learning often rely on small (sub 1 Bn parameter) specialized models tuned to particular domains or modalities. Such models often achieve excellent performance, but lack flexibility. LLMs and VLMs offer…
Video object segmentation (VOS) is a highly challenging problem since the initial mask, defining the target object, is only given at test-time. The main difficulty is to effectively handle appearance changes and similar background objects,…
Objective Semi-supervised video object segmentation refers to segmenting the object in subsequent frames given the object label in the first frame. Existing algorithms are mostly based on the objectives of matching and propagation…
