Animal pose estimation and tracking is important for wildlife monitoring and conservation research, and with limited expert time for labelling automated approaches are imperative. While human pose estimation and tracking has seen rapid progress thanks to large annotated datasets, animal pose remain challenging, due to large morphological and behavioural differences between species and limited annotated data.
arXiv:2608. 04496v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Visual inputs in vision-language models (VLMs) are often encoded into substantially longer token sequences than text, making visual tokens a major bottleneck for efficient inference.

arXiv:2501. 19060v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs), such as CLIP, adapt effectively to downstream tasks through prompt tuning, but fine-tuning can misalign predictive confidence and accuracy, particularly on unseen classes.

arXiv:2603. 18481v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection remains a critical challenge in open-world learning, where models must adapt to evolving data distributions.

arXiv:2607. 27154v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: CT vision-language foundation models have demonstrated promising performance across downstream tasks, but are typically trained with whole-volume representations that dilute fine-grained anatomical signals.

Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) has been shown to have limitations in its fine-grained dense feature representation, due to its pre-training focusing on matching the whole image to a text description. Considering the large data and computational burden in pre-training a vision-language model from scratch, a series of works aim to enhance the fine-grained ability of CLIP through a fine-tuning scheme.
