CODE: Cross-Modal Calibration and Dynamic Suppression for Open World Object Detection introduces a unified inference-time framework that addresses semantic ambiguity and over-suppression in multimodal OWOD systems. It comprises Cross-Modal Joint Confidence Calibration, Uncertainty-Guided Universal Objectness Enhancement, and Dynamic Outlier Suppression via Confidence Margin. Experiments on the Real-World Detection benchmark with the OWL‑ViT L/14 backbone show CODE achieving 21.7 U‑mAP and 40.8 K‑mAP, surpassing prior state‑of‑the‑art results by 2.6 and 2.3 points respectively.
Open-world object detection (OWOD) requires a detector to recognize known categories, discover unnamed objects from unseen categories, and incrementally learn newly annotated classes. PROB improves unknown discovery by modeling class-agnostic probabilistic objectness in the decoder-query space.

Vague2Detect is a hybrid pipeline that improves object detection for ambiguous prompts by combining a fine‑tuned Sentence‑BERT to retrieve candidates from a structured household knowledge base, YOLO‑World to verify their presence in images, and a GPT‑3.5‑turbo fallback to generate new candidate descriptions when prompts fall outside the knowledge base. On a benchmark of household scenes, Vague2Detect raises the vague prompt success rate from 32% (YOLO‑World alone) to 61% with high precision, and up to 85% when the GPT fallback is used.
arXiv:2608. 08308v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern vision systems must operate in "open-world" settings, where models must recognize known categories and detect unseen or anomalous content.
Real-world detectors must often interpret functional or ambiguous prompts, yet conventional models such as YOLO remain restricted to fixed class lists. Even open-vocabulary models like YOLO-World freq...
