SSMB: Self-Supervised Local Feature Detection under Motion Blur

SSMB is a self‑supervised keypoint detector designed for motion‑blurred images that does not rely on handcrafted detectors or external pseudo‑labels. It introduces a Local Discriminability Enhancement module to recover fine‑grained local detail after global feature mixing, and is trained in two stages: geometric pretraining on synthetic shapes and blur‑aware training on real sharp‑blur pairs using a multi‑component self‑supervised objective. Extensive experiments show that SSMB outperforms both supervised and self‑supervised baselines on keypoint detection, image matching, relative pose estimation, and visual localization under motion blur, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance.

Object Concepts Emerge from Motion

The paper introduces a biologically inspired framework that learns object‑centric visual representations from raw videos without human annotations or camera calibration. By using motion boundaries detected via optical flow and clustering to create pseudo‑instance masks, the method supervises a single‑image encoder with pixel‑level pairwise metric learning. Training on 195 million pseudo‑labeled frames and expanding to 421 million frames through Motion‑Verified Self‑Training, the approach yields Swin‑based encoders that outperform or match supervised and self‑supervised baselines on tasks such as monocular depth estimation, 3D object detection, 3D occupancy prediction, and end‑to‑end planning.

Temporal Feature Distillation for Label-Efficient Precise Event Spotting in Sports Videos

Precise Event Spotting (PES) requires distinguishing visually similar yet semantically distinct adjacent frames, making it fundamentally different from image classification and coarse action recognition. Although self-distillation methods such as DINO have shown strong representation learning ability in images, we find that directly applying them to PES is ineffective: without supervised guidance, subtle but crucial motion cues are often suppressed as noise, leading to representations that are insensitive to precise event boundaries.
