Researchers have developed a new system called ASH (Annotation and Segmentation Handler) designed to automate video annotation. ASH extends existing video instance segmentation trackers to handle arbitrary video lengths by using overlapping temporal chunks and IoU-based identity matching, eliminating the need for dataset-specific training. When combined with SAM3, the resulting pipeline, SAM3-ASH, achieves state-of-the-art performance on the MOTS20 benchmark under zero-shot conditions and remains competitive on other benchmarks, all while keeping GPU memory usage below 25 GB.
