This report presents our solution for the WeatherProof Dataset Challenge, namely CVPR 2026 8th UG2+ Challenge Track 2: Semantic Segmentation in Adverse Weather. For the semantic segmentation task under adverse weather conditions, we propose a semi-supervised segmentation pipeline. Our method is trained exclusively on the WeatherProof dataset, without using any additional external data. Specifically, we adopt UniMatch V2 as the baseline model and treat all degraded-weather images as unlabeled data for semi-supervised training, thereby fully exploiting the data distribution provided by the challenge. During inference, we further apply test-time augmentation to improve the robustness and segmentation accuracy of the final predictions. The code is publicly available at: https://github.com/ylb888/weatherproof-challenge-unimatchv2.

Despite the promising performance of current video segmentation models on existing benchmarks, these models still struggle with complex scenes. In this paper, we introduce the 6th Large-scale Video Object Segmentation (LSVOS) challenge in conjunction with ECCV 2024 workshop. This year's challenge includes two tasks: Video Object Segmentation (VOS) and Referring Video Object Segmentation (RVOS). In this year, we replace the classic YouTube-VOS and YouTube-RVOS benchmark with latest datasets MOSE, LVOS, and MeViS to assess VOS under more challenging complex environments. This year's challenge attracted 129 registered teams from more than 20 institutes across over 8 countries. This report include the challenge and dataset introduction, and the methods used by top 7 teams in two tracks. More details can be found in our homepage https://lsvos.github.io/.

Video object segmentation is a challenging task that serves as the cornerstone of numerous downstream applications, including video editing and autonomous driving. In this technical report, we briefly introduce the solution of our team "yuanjie" for video object segmentation in the 6-th LSVOS Challenge VOS Track at ECCV 2024. We believe that our proposed CSS-Segment will perform better in videos of complex object motion and long-term presentation. In this report, we successfully validated the effectiveness of the CSS-Segment in video object segmentation. Finally, our method achieved a J\&F score of 80.84 in and test phases, and ultimately ranked 2nd in the 6-th LSVOS Challenge VOS Track at ECCV 2024.

This report presents an overview of the AIM 2025 RipSeg Challenge, a competition designed to advance techniques for automatic rip current segmentation in still images. Rip currents are dangerous, fast-moving flows that pose a major risk to beach safety worldwide, making accurate visual detection an important and underexplored research task. The challenge builds on RipVIS, the largest available rip current dataset, and focuses on single-class instance segmentation, where precise delineation is critical to fully capture the extent of rip currents. The dataset spans diverse locations, rip current types, and camera orientations, providing a realistic and challenging benchmark. In total, $75$ participants registered for this first edition, resulting in $5$ valid test submissions. Teams were evaluated on a composite score combining $F_1$, $F_2$, $AP_{50}$, and $AP_{[50:95]}$, ensuring robust and application-relevant rankings. The top-performing methods leveraged deep learning architectures, domain adaptation techniques, pretrained models, and domain generalization strategies to improve performance under diverse conditions. This report outlines the dataset details, competition framework, evaluation metrics, and final results, providing insights into the current state of rip current segmentation. We conclude with a discussion of key challenges, lessons learned from the submissions, and future directions for expanding RipSeg.
