UniVOE: A Removal-Driven Framework for Interaction-Aware Universal Video Object Editing

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

UniVOE is a removal‑driven framework that trains both video object removal and injection models. It first builds an effect‑aware remover by leveraging video inpainting priors and fine‑tuning on object‑present/object‑absent pairs, then uses the remover to generate large‑scale paired data for training an injection model that restores objects with their dynamics and interaction effects. A reward‑based post‑training step aligns injection results with human preferences, and experiments show UniVOE outperforms existing open‑source and commercial systems, especially in challenging interaction‑effect scenarios.

VOR-Bench: A Human Perception-Driven Benchmark for Video Object Removal

VOR-Bench is a new benchmark for video object removal that addresses shortcomings in current evaluation methods by providing a dataset with paired edited videos and graffiti masks, a realistic motion-capable paired-video acquisition framework (rMPAF), and a perception-driven scoring model (VOR-MDSM). The dataset includes diverse data from model-generated, tool-rendered, and camera-captured sources, ensuring robust real-world assessment. Experiments show that VOR-Bench’s evaluation results correlate strongly (ρ > 0.9) with human subjective judgments, bridging the gap between traditional metrics and human preference.
