Abstract

Unsupervised pixel-level video understanding remains challenging in real-world scenarios, where motion blur, occlusion, and fast object dynamics often cause temporal drift and flickering this http URL propose VVitCutLER, an unsupervised framework for video object detection and instance segmentation, which improves the quality of pseudo-labels through temporal consistency. Our core contribution is VitCut, a temporarily stable pseudo-label generator that reduces error accumulation during field degradation through cross-frame region consistency. Meanwhile, VitCut uses a distillation decoder to achieve effective instance mask prediction. Then, based on VitCut, VVitCutLER further integrates cross-frame feature aggregation to enhance video-level robustness. Extensive experiments on standard video benchmarks demonstrate that VVitCutLER significantly improves detection and segmentation performance while reducing temporal instability. These results highlight the importance of temporally consistent supervision for robust pixel-level video understanding.
