FiVOS is an interactive video object segmentation algorithm tailored for fish segmentation in aquaculture. It introduces a mask block filter and serial noise filters to detect and correct erroneous propagated masks early, improving accuracy and robustness. Experiments show FiVOS achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on two newly constructed fish‑specific datasets.

Kirin is a new framework that reconstructs 3D animal motion from in‑the‑wild videos, learns motion priors at scale, and generates realistic motion conditioned on text and image. It introduces AiM3D, the first large‑scale dataset of aligned video‑text‑motion tuples for quadruped animals, and uses an off‑the‑shelf image‑to‑3D model to automatically rig and animate 3D meshes with the generated motion. The framework and dataset provide a foundation for large‑scale, text and image‑conditioned animal motion generation and animation.

MuyBridge is an on-device system that estimates an athlete’s segmental center of mass (CoM) trajectory from a single phone camera video stream. It combines a compact 2D pose network with a distilled monocular depth network, fusing their outputs through anatomical and physical priors to produce metric CoM estimates without requiring 3D or task‑specific supervision. On the AthletePose3D dataset, MuyBridge achieves 33–41 mm vertical CoM error and 2.3–6.6 % absolute‑relative range error, delivering CoM estimates at 63 FPS on an iPhone 15 with asynchronous depth updates.
