Moving object segmentation is conventionally formulated at the sequence and object level, marking an entire instance as moving once it moves anywhere in a video. Recent instantaneous formulations dist...
The paper introduces a promptable localized motion representation that generates persistent embeddings for user-specified regions in a video, without cropping or masking the input. By conditioning motion encoding directly on spatial masks while processing the full video, the method produces temporally consistent, region-addressable embeddings that capture local dynamics while preserving global context. These embeddings enable object-level motion transfer for dynamic scene composition and improve localized action classification in multi-actor videos, outperforming global representations that rely on cropping or post-hoc masking.

Abstract: Video segmentation models recognize and track objects over time, but they do not indicate whether each segmented region moves independently of the obse...

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.
