5th Pixel-level Video Understanding in the Wild Challenge
The PVUW 2026 workshop, held in conjunction with CVPR 2026 in Denver, CO, focuses on advancing pixel-level video understanding in real-world scenarios, moving beyond static image segmentation to dynamic video-based scene parsing. It features challenge tracks for complex video object segmentation and language- or audio-guided video segmentation, alongside invited talks and a poster session for accepted papers.
