TL;DR

It is demonstrated that prediction-level feedback substantially improves the reliability of training-free RVOS, with ReflexTrack, a training-free, feedback-driven agent that closes this loop at both spatial and temporal levels.

Abstract

Referring video object segmentation (RVOS) requires segmenting a target specified by natural language throughout a video. Recent agentic approaches combine multimodal large language models with promptable segmentation models to perform RVOS without task-specific training. However, most pipelines rely on one-shot spatial grounding followed by mask propagation, leaving both the initial prompts and temporal predictions largely unverified. We introduce ReflexTrack, a training-free, feedback-driven agent that closes this loop at both spatial and temporal levels. Mask-guided Spatial Refinement evaluates the mask induced by the current keyframe prompt and iteratively updates the bounding box together with positive and negative points, yielding a more reliable initialization. Video-level Mask Reflection assesses the complete mask sequence, localizes unreliable intervals, selects complementary repair keyframes, and generates candidate predictions through mask-guided re-propagation. Only candidates that provide a verified improvement are used to update the affected intervals, preserving reliable predictions elsewhere. All components remain frozen during inference. ReflexTrack achieves an overall $\mathcal{Q}$ score of $69.7$ on Ref-VPS and a $\mathcal{J}\&\mathcal{F}$ score of $67.2$ on ReasonVOS. These results demonstrate that prediction-level feedback substantially improves the reliability of training-free RVOS.

Toward Reasoning-Centric Video Object Segmentation via Multi-Modal Large Language Models

Referring Video Object Segmentation (RVOS) aims to segment the target objects specified in human instructions. Previous approaches typically rely on explicit human instructions that contain target categories or salient appearance descriptions. These approaches tend to fail when the instructions require temporal video u...
