OpenVAM: Open-World Visual Attention Modeling with VLMs

OpenVAM is a new framework for visual attention modeling that combines a dense saliency map with language‑based explanations. It uses a decoupled design: a visual pathway for precise localization and a vision‑language head that generates grounded what/why explanations. The method is trained in three stages to preserve localization while adding language grounding, and a scalable pipeline creates multi‑domain annotations for evaluation.

MIMONet: Multi-scale Input and Multi-scale Output Network for Salient Object Detection

MIMONet is a saliency detection model that uses multi‑scale inputs and outputs to better handle objects of varying sizes. It processes three differently sized images through separate encoder branches that exchange information, allowing each branch to learn size‑variation knowledge from the others. A Multi‑scale Perception module further refines features, and a Joint Saliency Loss ensures consistent, well‑preserved boundaries across the multiple saliency maps produced.
