Perception Test 2025 challenge unifies video QA, tracking, and action localization tasks

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The Third Perception Test challenge, held alongside ICCV 2025, aimed to benchmark video models and assess progress in multimodal perception. This year's challenge emphasized task unification, presenting five consolidated tracks including unified video QA, object tracking, and action localization. A novel subset reformulated perception tasks into multiple-choice video QA questions, highlighting current models' difficulties in handling diverse tasks through unified interfaces. AI

IMPACT Highlights challenges in current multimodal models for unified perception tasks, potentially guiding future research directions.
