New iSEE framework enables object permanence in videos via self-supervision

Researchers have introduced iSEE, a novel self-supervised framework designed to achieve object permanence in videos without requiring any labels. The system addresses the challenge of tracking objects through occlusions by modeling object evidence, separating appearance from position streams, and learning permanence from reappearance cues. In evaluations on the LA-CATER dataset, iSEE demonstrated a significant improvement in returning occluded objects to their correct slots compared to existing methods, and it achieved competitive localization accuracy with state-of-the-art label-trained models. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more robust video understanding systems capable of tracking objects through occlusions, benefiting applications in robotics and autonomous systems.

    iSEE: Object Permanence Through Self-Supervision

    arXiv:2610.01201v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Object permanence, keeping track of an object's identity and position while it is occluded, is central to video representations that track, predict and plan. Trackers that achieve it learn from boxes, track identities and visibility…
