LSVOS Challenge 3rd Place Report: SAM2 and Cutie based VOSXinyu Liu, Jing Zhang, Kexin Zhang et al.
Video Object Segmentation (VOS) presents several challenges, including object occlusion and fragmentation, the dis-appearance and re-appearance of objects, and tracking specific objects within crowded scenes. In this work, we combine the strengths of the state-of-the-art (SOTA) models SAM2 and Cutie to address these challenges. Additionally, we explore the impact of various hyperparameters on video instance segmentation performance. Our approach achieves a J\&F score of 0.7952 in the testing phase of LSVOS challenge VOS track, ranking third overall.

Endora: Video Generation Models as Endoscopy SimulatorsChenxin Li, Hengyu Liu, Yifan Liu et al.
Generative models hold promise for revolutionizing medical education, robot-assisted surgery, and data augmentation for machine learning. Despite progress in generating 2D medical images, the complex domain of clinical video generation has largely remained untapped.This paper introduces \model, an innovative approach to generate medical videos that simulate clinical endoscopy scenes. We present a novel generative model design that integrates a meticulously crafted spatial-temporal video transformer with advanced 2D vision foundation model priors, explicitly modeling spatial-temporal dynamics during video generation. We also pioneer the first public benchmark for endoscopy simulation with video generation models, adapting existing state-of-the-art methods for this endeavor.Endora demonstrates exceptional visual quality in generating endoscopy videos, surpassing state-of-the-art methods in extensive testing. Moreover, we explore how this endoscopy simulator can empower downstream video analysis tasks and even generate 3D medical scenes with multi-view consistency. In a nutshell, Endora marks a notable breakthrough in the deployment of generative AI for clinical endoscopy research, setting a substantial stage for further advances in medical content generation.

3rd Place Solution for MOSE Track in CVPR 2024 PVUW workshop: Complex Video Object SegmentationXinyu Liu, Jing Zhang, Kexin Zhang et al.
Video Object Segmentation (VOS) is a vital task in computer vision, focusing on distinguishing foreground objects from the background across video frames. Our work draws inspiration from the Cutie model, and we investigate the effects of object memory, the total number of memory frames, and input resolution on segmentation performance. This report validates the effectiveness of our inference method on the coMplex video Object SEgmentation (MOSE) dataset, which features complex occlusions. Our experimental results demonstrate that our approach achieves a J\&F score of 0.8139 on the test set, securing the third position in the final ranking. These findings highlight the robustness and accuracy of our method in handling challenging VOS scenarios.
