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.
