A Bidirectional Correlation-Driven Inter-Frame Interaction Transformer (BIFIT) improves Referring Video Object Segmentation by strengthening cross-modal correlation and modeling temporal coherence across video frames. The model achieves state-of-the-art results on benchmarks such as Ref-Youtube-VOS (59.9% J&F) and A2D-Sentences (52.4% mAP), consistently outperforming prior methods.
Key insights
- Strong bidirectional interaction between vision and language features, conducted before the main Transformer, is critical for achieving precise object understanding.
- A lightweight inter-frame interaction mechanism, integrated into the Transformer decoder, can effectively model spatio-temporal relationships and improve temporal consistency in predictions.
- The "Attention + Multiply" fusion strategy and maintaining original text features for iterative enhancement contribute to more effective cross-modal feature alignment.
