TSA: Temporal Slot Activation for Persistent Object-Centric Video Representation proposes a lightweight mechanism that learns per-slot, per-frame activation scores to control slot lifecycle in unsupervised video object-centric learning. By gating slot updates and decoder participation when objects are absent or occluded, TSA reduces state drift and reconstruction interference, improving object decomposition and temporal identity preservation. The method is evaluated on MOVi-C, MOVi-E, YTVIS-HQ, and OVIS benchmarks, showing significant gains, especially on long, heavily occluded videos.

TrajTok introduces an end‑to‑end video tokenizer that replaces traditional patchification with a lightweight, trajectory‑based tokenization process. It performs implicit clustering over space‑time pixels to generate object trajectories in a single forward pass, dynamically adjusting token granularity to semantic complexity while remaining independent of video duration. The resulting TrajViT2 model outperforms existing methods on classification and retrieval benchmarks, and TrajTok can also serve as a probing head (TrajAdapter) or alignment connector (TrajVLM) for vision‑language tasks, notably improving long‑video reasoning.

Video object segmentation (VOS) is a fundamental task in video understanding, requiring accurate delineation and consistent tracking of objects across frames. While supervised methods achieve strong performance, they rely on densely annotated datasets that are costly to obtain and have limited domain coverage.

DiDA introduces a lightweight video object segmentation framework that leverages Distillation Learning of Deformable Attention. The method uses deformable attention to adapt key and value positions across frames, enabling object representations that are responsive to spatial and temporal changes. Experiments on DAVIS and YouTube‑VOS benchmarks show state‑of‑the‑art performance and efficient memory usage.
