Aiming to achieve class-agnostic perception in visual object tracking, current trackers commonly formulate tracking as a one-shot detection problem with the template-matching architecture. Despite the success, severe environmental variations in long-term tracking raise challenges to generalizing the tracker in novel situations. Temporal trackers try to fix it by preserving the time-validity of target information with historical predictions, e.g., updating the template. However, solely transmitting the previous observations instead of learning from them leads to an inferior capability of understanding the tracking scenario from past experience, which is critical for the generalization in new frames. To address this issue, we reformulate temporal learning in visual tracking as a History-to-Future process and propose a novel tracking framework DreamTrack. Our DreamTrack learns the temporal dynamics from past observations to dream the future variations of the environment, which boosts the generalization with the extended future information from history. Considering the uncertainty of future variation, multimodal prediction is designed to infer the target trajectory of each possible future situation. The experiments demonstrate that our DreamTrack achieves leading performance with real-time inference speed. In particular, DreamTrack obtains SUC scores of 76.6%/87.9% on LaSOT/TrackingNet, surpassing all recent SOTA trackers.

In Open-set Supervised Anomaly Detection (OSAD), the existing methods typically generate pseudo anomalies to compensate for the scarcity of observed anomaly samples, while overlooking critical priors of normal samples, leading to less effective discriminative boundaries. To address this issue, we propose a Distribution Prototype Diffusion Learning (DPDL) method aimed at enclosing normal samples within a compact and discriminative distribution space. Specifically, we construct multiple learnable Gaussian prototypes to create a latent representation space for abundant and diverse normal samples and learn a Schr"odinger bridge to facilitate a diffusive transition toward these prototypes for normal samples while steering anomaly samples away. Moreover, to enhance inter-sample separation, we design a dispersion feature learning way in hyperspherical space, which benefits the identification of out-ofdistribution anomalies. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our proposed DPDL, achieving state-of-the-art performance on 9 public datasets.

We introduce Digital Twin Catalog (DTC), a new large-scale photorealistic 3D object digital twin dataset. A digital twin of a 3D object is a highly detailed, virtually indistinguishable representation of a physical object, accurately capturing its shape, appearance, physical properties, and other attributes. Recent advances in neural-based 3D reconstruction and inverse rendering have significantly improved the quality of 3D object reconstruction. Despite these advancements, there remains a lack of a large-scale, digital twin quality real-world dataset and benchmark that can quantitatively assess and compare the performance of different reconstruction methods, as well as improve reconstruction quality through training or fine-tuning. Moreover, to democratize 3D digital twin creation, it is essential to integrate creation techniques with next-generation egocentric computing platforms, such as AR glasses. Currently, there is no dataset available to evaluate 3D object reconstruction using egocentric captured images. To address these gaps, the DTC dataset features 2,000 scanned digital twin-quality 3D objects, along with image sequences captured under different lighting conditions using DSLR cameras and egocentric AR glasses. This dataset establishes the first comprehensive real-world evaluation benchmark for 3D digital twin creation tasks, offering a robust foundation for comparing and improving existing reconstruction methods. The DTC dataset is already released at https://www.projectaria.com/datasets/dtc/ and we will also make the baseline evaluations open-source.

In this paper, we examine a key limitation in query-based detectors for temporal action detection (TAD), which arises from their direct adaptation of originally designed architectures for object detection. Despite the effectiveness of the existing models, they struggle to fully address the unique challenges of TAD, such as the redundancy in multi-scale features and the limited ability to capture sufficient temporal context. To address these issues, we propose a multi-dilated gated encoder and central-adjacent region integrated decoder for temporal action detection transformer (DiGIT). Our approach replaces the existing encoder that consists of multi-scale deformable attention and feedforward network with our multi-dilated gated encoder. Our proposed encoder reduces the redundant information caused by multi-level features while maintaining the ability to capture fine-grained and long-range temporal information. Furthermore, we introduce a central-adjacent region integrated decoder that leverages a more comprehensive sampling strategy for deformable cross-attention to capture the essential information. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DiGIT achieves state-of-the-art performance on THUMOS14, ActivityNet v1.3, and HACS-Segment.

Hallucinations in Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) significantly undermine their reliability, motivating researchers to explore the causes of hallucination. However, most studies primarily focus on the language aspect rather than the visual. In this paper, we address how LVLMs process visual information and whether this process causes hallucination. Firstly, we use the attention lens to identify the stages at which LVLMs handle visual data, discovering that the middle layers are crucial. Moreover, we find that these layers can be further divided into two stages: "visual information enrichment" and "semantic refinement" which respectively propagate visual data to object tokens and interpret it through text. By analyzing attention patterns during the visual information enrichment stage, we find that real tokens consistently receive higher attention weights than hallucinated ones, serving as a strong indicator of hallucination. Further examination of multi-head attention maps reveals that hallucination tokens often result from heads interacting with inconsistent objects. Based on these insights, we propose a simple inference-time method that adjusts visual attention by integrating information across various heads. Extensive experiments demonstrate that this approach effectively mitigates hallucinations in mainstream LVLMs without additional training costs.

Infrared unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) images captured using thermal detectors are often affected by temperature-dependent low-frequency nonuniformity, which significantly reduces the contrast of the images. Detecting UAV targets under nonuniform conditions is crucial in UAV surveillance applications. Existing methods typically treat infrared nonuniformity correction (NUC) as a preprocessing step for detection, which leads to suboptimal performance. Balancing the two tasks while enhancing detection-beneficial information remains challenging. In this paper, we present a detection-friendly union framework, termed UniCD, that simultaneously addresses both infrared NUC and UAV target detection tasks in an end-to-end manner. We first model NUC as a small number of parameter estimation problem jointly driven by priors and data to generate detection-conducive images. Then, we incorporate a new auxiliary loss with target mask supervision into the backbone of the infrared UAV target detection network to strengthen target features while suppressing the background. To better balance correction and detection, we introduce a detection-guided self-supervised loss to reduce feature discrepancies between the two tasks, thereby enhancing detection robustness to varying nonuniformity levels. Additionally, we construct a new benchmark composed of 50,000 infrared images in various nonuniformity types, multi-scale UAV targets and rich backgrounds with target annotations, called IRBFD. Extensive experiments on IRBFD demonstrate that our UniCD is a robust union framework for NUC and UAV target detection while achieving real-time processing capabilities. Dataset can be available at https://github.com/IVPLaboratory/UniCD.

In environmental protection, tree monitoring plays an essential role in maintaining and improving ecosystem health. However, precise monitoring is challenging because existing datasets fail to capture continuous fine-grained changes in trees due to low-resolution images and high acquisition costs. In this paper, we introduce UAVTC, a large-scale, long-term, high-resolution dataset collected using UAVs equipped with cameras, specifically designed to detect individual Tree Changes (TCs). UAVTC includes rich annotations and statistics based on biological knowledge, offering a fine-grained view for tree monitoring. To address environmental influences and effectively model the hierarchical diversity of physiological TCs, we propose a novel Hyperbolic Siamese Network (HSN) for TC detection, enabling compact and hierarchical representations of dynamic tree changes. Extensive experiments show that HSN can effectively capture complex hierarchical changes and provide a robust solution for fine-grained TC detection. In addition, HSN generalizes well to cross-domain face anti-spoofing task, highlighting its broader significance in AI. We believe our work, combining ecological insights and interdisciplinary expertise, will benefit the community by offering a new benchmark and innovative AI technologies.

We present DecoupledGaussian, a novel system that decouples static objects from their contacted surfaces captured in-the-wild videos, a key prerequisite for realistic Newtonian-based physical simulations. Unlike prior methods focused on synthetic data or elastic jittering along the contact surface, which prevent objects from fully detaching or moving independently, DecoupledGaussian allows for significant positional changes without being constrained by the initial contacted surface. Recognizing the limitations of current 2D inpainting tools for restoring 3D locations, our approach uses joint Poisson fields to repair and expand the Gaussians of both objects and contacted scenes after separation. This is complemented by a multi-carve strategy to refine the object's geometry. Our system enables realistic simulations of decoupling motions, collisions, and fractures driven by user-specified impulses, supporting complex interactions within and across multiple scenes. We validate DecoupledGaussian through a comprehensive user study and quantitative benchmarks. This system enhances digital interaction with objects and scenes in real-world environments, benefiting industries such as VR, robotics, and autonomous driving.

The boom of Generative AI brings opportunities entangled with risks and concerns. Existing literature emphasizes the generalization capability of deepfake detection on unseen generators, significantly promoting the detector's ability to identify more universal artifacts. This work seeks a step toward a universal deepfake detection system with better generalization and robustness. We do so by first scaling up the existing detection task setup from the one-generator to multiple-generators in training, during which we disclose two challenges presented in prior methodological designs and demonstrate the divergence of detectors' performance. Specifically, we reveal that the current methods tailored for training on one specific generator either struggle to learn comprehensive artifacts from multiple generators or sacrifice their fitting ability for seen generators (i.e., In-Domain (ID) performance) to exchange the generalization for unseen generators (i.e., Out-Of-Domain (OOD) performance). To tackle the above challenges, we propose our Discrepancy Deepfake Detector (D3) framework, whose core idea is to deconstruct the universal artifacts from multiple generators by introducing a parallel network branch that takes a distorted image feature as an extra discrepancy signal and supplements its original counterpart. Extensive scaled-up experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of D3, achieving 5.3% accuracy improvement in the OOD testing compared to the current SOTA methods while maintaining the ID performance. The source code will be updated in our GitHub repository: https://github.com/BigAandSmallq/D3.

Existing multimodal large language models (MLLMs) face significant challenges in Referring Video Object Segmentation(RVOS). We identify three critical challenges: (C1) insufficient quantitative representation of textual numerical data, (C2) repetitive and degraded response templates for spatiotemporal referencing, and (C3) loss of visual information in video sampling queries lacking textual guidance. To address these, we propose a novel framework, Dynamic Time Object Sensing (DTOS), specifically designed for RVOS. To tackle (C1) and (C2), we introduce specialized tokens to construct multi-answer response templates, enabling regression of event boundaries and target localization. This approach improves the accuracy of numerical regression while mitigating the issue of repetitive degradation. To address (C3), we propose a Text-guided Clip Sampler (TCS) that selects video clips aligned with user instructions, preventing visual information loss and ensuring consistent temporal resolution. TCS is also applicable to Moment Retrieval tasks, with enhanced multimodal input sequences preserving spatial details and maximizing temporal resolution. DTOS demonstrates exceptional capability in flexibly localizing multiple spatiotemporal targets based on user-provided textual instructions. Extensive experiments validate the effectiveness of our approach, with DTOS achieving state-of-the-art performance in J&F scores: an improvement of +4.36 on MeViS, +4.48 on Ref-DAVIS17, and +3.02 on Ref-YT-VOS. Additionally, our TCS demonstrates exceptional performance in Moment Retrieval. The code is available at https://github.com/Maulog/OPEN-DTOS-LMM

Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is crucial for ensuring the robustness of machine learning models by identifying samples that deviate from the training distribution. While traditional OOD detection has predominantly focused on single-modality inputs, such as images, recent advancements in multimodal models have shown the potential of utilizing multiple modalities (e.g., video, optical flow, audio) to improve detection performance. However, existing approaches often neglect intra-class variability within in-distribution (ID) data, assuming that samples of the same class are perfectly cohesive and consistent. This assumption can lead to performance degradation, especially when prediction discrepancies are indiscriminately amplified across all samples. To address this issue, we propose Dynamic Prototype Updating (DPU), a novel plug-and-play framework for multimodal OOD detection that accounts for intra-class variations. Our method dynamically updates class center representations for each class by measuring the variance of similar samples within each batch, enabling tailored adjustments. This approach allows us to intensify prediction discrepancies based on the updated class centers, thereby enhancing the model's robustness and generalization across different modalities. Extensive experiments on two tasks, five datasets, and nine base OOD algorithms demonstrate that DPU significantly improves OOD detection performances, setting a new state-of-the-art in multimodal OOD detection, including improvements up to 80% in Far-OOD detection.To improve accessibility and reproducibility, our code is released anonymously at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/CVPR-9177.

Feature matching methods for unsupervised anomaly detection have demonstrated impressive performance. Existing methods primarily rely on self-supervised training and handcrafted matching schemes for task adaptation. However, they can only achieve an inferior feature representation for anomaly detection because the feature extraction and matching modules are separately trained. To address these issues, we propose a Differentiable Feature Matching (DFM) framework for joint optimization of the feature extractor and the matching head. DFM transforms nearest-neighbor matching into a pooling-based module and embeds it within a Feature Matching Network (FMN). This design enables end-to-end feature extraction and feature matching module training, thus providing better feature representation for anomaly detection tasks. DFM is generic and can be incorporated into existing feature-matching methods. We implement DFM with various backbones and conduct extensive experiments across various tasks and datasets, demonstrating its effectiveness. Notably, we achieve state-of-the-art results in the continual anomaly detection task with instance-AUROC improvement of up to 3.9% and pixel-AP improvement of up to 5.5%.

We consider indoor 3D object detection with respect to a single RGB(-D) frame acquired from a commodity handheld device. We seek to significantly advance the status quo with respect to both data and modeling. First, we establish that existing datasets have significant limitations to scale, accuracy, and diversity of objects. As a result, we introduce the Cubify-Anything 1M (CA-1M) dataset, which exhaustively labels over 400K 3D objects on over 1K highly accurate laser-scanned scenes with near-perfect registration to over 3.5K handheld, egocentric captures. Next, we establish Cubify Transformer (CuTR), a fully Transformer 3D object detection baseline which rather than operating in 3D on point or voxel-based representations, predicts 3D boxes directly from 2D features derived from RGB(-D) inputs. While this approach lacks any 3D inductive biases, we show that paired with CA-1M, CuTR outperforms point-based methods, accurately recalling over 62% of objects in 3D, and is significantly more capable at handling noise and uncertainty present in commodity LiDAR-derived depth maps while also providing promising RGB only performance without architecture changes. Furthermore, by pre-training on CA-1M, CuTR can outperform point-based methods on a more diverse variant of SUN RGB-D, supporting the notion that while inductive biases in 3D are useful at the smaller sizes of existing datasets, they fail to scale to the data-rich regime of CA-1M. Overall, this dataset and baseline model provide strong evidence that we are moving towards models which can effectively Cubify Anything.

Multi-modal 3D object understanding has gained significant attention, yet current approaches often assume complete data availability and rigid alignment across all modalities. We present CrossOver, a novel framework for cross-modal 3D scene understanding via flexible, scene-level modality alignment. Unlike traditional methods that require aligned modality data for every object instance, CrossOver learns a unified, modality-agnostic embedding space for scenes by aligning modalities -- RGB images, point clouds, CAD models, floorplans, and text descriptions -- with relaxed constraints and without explicit object semantics. Leveraging dimensionality-specific encoders, a multi-stage training pipeline, and emergent cross-modal behaviors, CrossOver supports robust scene retrieval and object localization, even with missing modalities. Evaluations on ScanNet and 3RScan datasets show its superior performance across diverse metrics, highlighting CrossOver's adaptability for real-world applications in 3D scene understanding.

Object discovery, which refers to the task of localizing objects without human annotations, has gained significant attention in 2D image analysis. However, despite this growing interest, it remains under-explored in 3D data, where approaches rely exclusively on 3D motion, despite its several challenges. In this paper, we present a novel framework that leverages advances in 2D object discovery which are based on 2D motion to exploit the advantages of such motion cues being more flexible and generalizable and to bridge the gap between 2D and 3D modalities.Our primary contributions are twofold: (i) we introduce DIOD-3D, the first baseline for multi-object discovery in 3D data using 2D motion, incorporating scene completion as an auxiliary task to enable dense object localization from sparse input data; (ii) we develop xMOD, a cross-modal training framework that integrates 2D and 3D data while always using 2D motion cues. xMOD employs a teacher-student training paradigm across the two modalities to mitigate confirmation bias by leveraging the domain gap. During inference, the model supports both RGB-only and point cloud-only inputs. Additionally, we propose a late-fusion technique tailored to our pipeline that further enhances performance when both modalities are available at inference.We evaluate our approach extensively on synthetic (TRIP-PD) and challenging real-world datasets (KITTI and Waymo). Notably, our approach yields a substantial performance improvement compared with the 2D object discovery state-of-the-art on all datasets with gains ranging from +8.7 to +15.1 in F1@50 score.

Recent advances in diffusion models have spurred research into their application for Reconstruction-based unsupervised anomaly detection. However, these methods may struggle with maintaining structural integrity and recovering the anomaly-free content of abnormal regions, especially in multi-class scenarios. Furthermore, diffusion models are inherently designed to generate images from pure noise and struggle to selectively alter anomalous regions of an image while preserving normal ones. This leads to potential degradation of normal regions during reconstruction, hampering the effectiveness of anomaly detection. This paper introduces a reformulation of the standard diffusion model geared toward selective region alteration, allowing the accurate identification of anomalies. By modeling anomalies as noise in the latent space, our proposed Deviation correction diffusion (DeCo-Diff) model preserves the normal regions and encourages transformations exclusively on anomalous areas. This selective approach enhances the reconstruction quality, facilitating effective unsupervised detection and localization of anomaly regions. Comprehensive evaluations demonstrate the superiority of our method in accurately identifying and localizing anomalies in complex images, with pixel-level AUPRC improvements of 11-14% over state-of-the-art models on well-known anomaly detection datasets.

Camera-only multi-view 3D object detection in autonomous driving has witnessed encouraging developments in recent years, largely attributed to the revolution of fundamental architectures in modeling bird's eye view (BEV). Despite the growing overall average performance, we contend that the exploration of more specific and challenging corner cases hasn't received adequate attention. In this work, we delve into a specific yet critical issue for safe autonomous driving: occlusion. To alleviate this challenge, we draw inspiration from the human amodal perception system, which is proven to have the capacity for mentally reconstructing the complete semantic concept of occluded objects with prior knowledge. More specifically, we introduce auxiliary visual and language prototypes, akin to human prior knowledge, to enhance the diminished object features caused by occlusion. Inspired by Siamese object tracking, we fuse the information from these prototypes with the baseline model through an efficient depth-wise correlation, thereby enhancing the quality of object-related features and guiding the learning of 3D object queries, especially for partially occluded ones. Furthermore, we propose the random pixel drop to mimic occlusion and the multi-modal contrastive loss to align visual features of different occlusion levels to a unified space during training. Our inspiration originates from addressing occlusion, however, we are surprised to find that the proposed framework also enhances robustness in various challenging scenarios that diminish object representation, such as inclement weather conditions. By applying our model to different baselines, i.e., BEVFormer and SparseBEV, we demonstrate consistent improvements.

Online Action Detection (OAD) detects actions in streaming videos using past observations. State-of-the-art OAD approaches model past observations and their interactions with an anticipated future. The past is encoded using short- and long-term memories to capture immediate and long-range dependencies, while anticipation compensates for missing future context.We identify a training-inference discrepancy in existing OAD methods that hinders learning effectiveness. The training uses varying lengths of short-term memory, while inference relies on a full-length short-term memory. As a remedy, we propose a Context-enhanced Memory-Refined Transformer (CMeRT). CMeRT introduces a context-enhanced encoder to improve frame representations using additional near-past context. It also features a memory-refined decoder to leverage near-future generation to enhance performance. CMeRT achieves state-of-the-art in online detection and anticipation on THUMOS'14, CrossTask, and EPIC-Kitchens-100.

As large-scale diffusion models continue to advance, they excel at producing high-quality images but often generate unwanted content, such as sexually explicit or violent content. Existing methods for concept removal generally guide the image generation process but can unintentionally modify unrelated regions, leading to inconsistencies with the original model. We propose a novel approach for targeted concept replacing in diffusion models, enabling specific concepts to be removed without affecting non-target areas. Our method introduces a dedicated concept localizer for precisely identifying the target concept during the denoising process, trained with few-shot learning to require minimal labeled data. Within the identified region, we introduce a training-free Dual Prompts Cross-Attention (DPCA) module to substitute the target concept, ensuring minimal disruption to surrounding content. We evaluate our method on concept localization precision and replacement efficiency. Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves superior precision in localizing target concepts and performs coherent concept replacement with minimal impact on non-target areas, outperforming existing approaches.
