Cycle Consistency in Video Object-Centric Learning

ArXi:2605.30211v1 Announce Type: new Self-supervised video Object-Centric Learning (OCL) aims to discover distinct objects and associate them across time, whereas self-supervised Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) focuses on associating pre-defined object detections or segmentations. Although well-established in MOT, Cycle Consistency (CC) cannot naively or explicitly apply to the latent slot space of OCL. Unlike the deterministic and ideal object representations in MOT, OCL slots are inherently stochastic and ambiguous due to non-unique scene decompositions.
