DetM-Tracker: Deterministic and Memory-Efficient VIS for Autonomous Industrial Inspection

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

DetM-Tracker is a lightweight Video Instance Segmentation framework designed for autonomous industrial inspection. It reduces memory and computation by condensing instance features into four-scalar descriptors, dynamically allocating query capacity, and using entropy-gated skip connections to focus processing on uncertain regions. The method achieves roughly 20× lower inference latency and 6× less VRAM usage than dense-feature baselines.

SAM-V: Geometry-Aware Segment Anything for Multi-View Instance Segmentation

SAM‑V is a geometry‑aware extension of the Segment Anything Model (SAM) that integrates 3D priors from a feed‑forward geometry model (VGGT) into 2D segmentation. It uses a prompt‑fusion mechanism to combine sparse SAM prompts with view‑specific camera tokens and local VGGT features, enabling a mask decoder that attends to both dense 2D and 3D cues. The resulting end‑to‑end system produces consistent multi‑view instance segmentation in a single forward pass, achieving significant gains on the IGGT 3D tracking benchmark without offline mask matching or explicit 3D reconstruction.

UniMem: Unifying Visual and Textual Memory in VLAs for Non-Markovian Tasks

UniMem is a framework that unifies visual and textual memory with low‑level control in a single Vision‑Language‑Action model, using an event classifier, keyframe encoder, and caching to manage memory efficiently. It addresses non‑Markovian tasks that require remembering past scenes, avoiding the memory bottleneck of separate VLMs and the performance drop from fixed‑interval frame sampling. Across five simulation and four hardware tasks, UniMem outperforms fixed‑interval sampling (93.4% vs. 68.2%) and hierarchical VLM‑VLA baselines (80.0% vs. 43.5%) while offering faster inference and a simpler training pipeline.
