ByteTrackV2: 2D and 3D Multi-Object Tracking by Associating Every Detection BoxYifu Zhang, Xinggang Wang, Xiaoqing Ye et al.
Multi-object tracking (MOT) aims at estimating bounding boxes and identities of objects across video frames. Detection boxes serve as the basis of both 2D and 3D MOT. The inevitable changing of detection scores leads to object missing after tracking. We propose a hierarchical data association strategy to mine the true objects in low-score detection boxes, which alleviates the problems of object missing and fragmented trajectories. The simple and generic data association strategy shows effectiveness under both 2D and 3D settings. In 3D scenarios, it is much easier for the tracker to predict object velocities in the world coordinate. We propose a complementary motion prediction strategy that incorporates the detected velocities with a Kalman filter to address the problem of abrupt motion and short-term disappearing. ByteTrackV2 leads the nuScenes 3D MOT leaderboard in both camera (56.4% AMOTA) and LiDAR (70.1% AMOTA) modalities. Furthermore, it is nonparametric and can be integrated with various detectors, making it appealing in real applications. The source code is released at https://github.com/ifzhang/ByteTrack-V2.

Collaborative Learning of On-Device Small Model and Cloud-Based Large Model: Advances and Future DirectionsChaoyue Niu, Yucheng Ding, Junhui Lu et al.
The conventional cloud-based large model learning framework is increasingly constrained by latency, cost, personalization, and privacy concerns. In this survey, we explore an emerging paradigm: collaborative learning between on-device small model and cloud-based large model, which promises low-latency, cost-efficient, and personalized intelligent services while preserving user privacy. We provide a comprehensive review across hardware, system, algorithm, and application layers. At each layer, we summarize key problems and recent advances from both academia and industry. In particular, we categorize collaboration algorithms into data-based, feature-based, and parameter-based frameworks. We also review publicly available datasets and evaluation metrics with user-level or device-level consideration tailored to collaborative learning settings. We further highlight real-world deployments, ranging from recommender systems and mobile livestreaming to personal intelligent assistants. We finally point out open research directions to guide future development in this rapidly evolving field.
