VISTA (Video Grounding): leaderboard

Metric: Mean spatio-temporal IoU (m_vIoU, %): per-frame box IoU summed over the frames where predicted and true tubes overlap in time, divided by their temporal union, pooled over referral and freeform queries (R&F), over the 11,814 video-query pairs of VISTA (HCSTVG-v1 and v2, VidVRD, VidSTG, MeViS and RVOS videos re-annotated with an interaction taxonomy), zero-shot on sub-sampled frames; the model must localize the queried subject with a box in every frame; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 9 models tracked.
