Syn2RealTrack: Bridging the Gap Between Synthetic and Real-World Datasets for Online Multi-View Multi-Target Tracking

Syn2RealTrack addresses the synthetic‑to‑real gap in multi‑camera 3D perception for warehouses by decomposing it into three distinct issues: camera calibration, object shape prior, and known object census. The pipeline corrects lens distortion from images, fuses detections with a visibility‑weighted part‑based descriptor, measures person height directly from calibration, and uses a closed‑world cardinality prior with a causal filter to eliminate phantom boxes. These local remedies allow the system to adapt without retraining a feature extractor, achieving a 3D HOTA of 52.0118% on the AI City Challenge 2026 Track 1.

Physical AI Smart Spaces: A Large-Scale Benchmark for Multi-Camera 3D Perception in Smart Spaces

Physical AI Smart Spaces is the first benchmark that offers large‑scale, multi‑class, multi‑camera 3D perception data for indoor smart spaces. It includes over 280 hours of synchronized 1080p footage from nearly 1,800 cameras in warehouses, hospitals, and retail venues, with automatic annotations for identities, 2D and 3D bounding boxes, camera calibration, and depth. The benchmark spans synthetic generation, appearance augmentation, and real‑world Sim2Real evaluation, and introduces a 3D version of Higher Order Tracking Accuracy (HOTA) for evaluating multi‑class 3D box tracking.

OmniGlimpse: Asymmetric Identity Memory for Online Multi-View Tracking

OmniGlimpse introduces an asymmetric propose‑verify framework for online multi‑view tracking, separating short‑term adaptive association from long‑term stable identity consolidation. It maps short‑term local and cross‑view evidence into target‑specific adaptive spaces for proposing associations, while maintaining long‑term identity distributions in a canonical space defined by a frozen encoder for verification. The method achieves significant gains over the best online baseline on M3Track and MvMHAT, outperforming offline‑trained references in IDF1 without any offline scene‑specific training.

VideoReloc: Long-Term Indoor Video Relocalization against a Kilobyte-Scale Semantic Scene Graph

VideoReloc presents a method for long‑term indoor video relocalization that relies on a compact semantic scene graph rather than visual appearance. By adaptively selecting clip lengths based on odometry and object‑motion criteria, the system gathers spatial evidence, verifies poses through object triplets, and refines orientation using box faces and gravity cues. This approach achieves high localization accuracy with a tiny 100 kB map, outperforming traditional appearance‑based methods on RIO10 and ReplicaCAD datasets.

Matisse: Evidence-Space Reasoning for Active 3D Reconstruction

Matisse is a training‑free framework that combines active 3D reconstruction with keyframe selection by using evidence from a pretrained generative 3D model. It estimates evidential uncertainty via cross‑attention on 3D latent tokens and derives an evidential information gain to guide view acquisition and keyframe selection, reducing redundant observations and supporting multi‑object scenes with occlusion‑aware aggregation. On GSO30, YCB‑V, and Replica, Matisse improves Chamfer distance by 12.7%, 3.8%, and 9.2% respectively, and speeds up end‑to‑end reconstruction by 1.5× compared to the best baseline.
