Dear colleagues,
<br>
<br>
The Visual Object Tracking and Segmentation Challenge <b>VOTS2025
opens next week</b>! <br>
</p>
<p><b>NEW:</b>
<br>
* A realtime challenge is introduced to promote lean tracker
designs!
<br>
* Integration of native single-target trackers with the VOTS
toolkit is simplified!
<br>
<br>
<b>Three challenges available:
</b><br>
* VOTS2025 challenge - Continuation of the VOTS2023 challenge. The
task is to track one or more general targets over short-term or
long-term sequences by segmentation.
<br>
* VOTS2025-RT challenge - Realtime version of VOTS2025 challenge
on hardware-constrained setup.
<br>
* VOTSt2025 challenge - Continuation of the VOTSt2024 challenge.
The task is to track general objects undergoing a topological
transformation, such as vegetables cut into pieces, machines
disassembled, etc.
<br>
<br>
<b>IMPORTANT DATES:
</b><br>
* 13th May, 2025 - All challenges open
<br>
* 22nd June, 2025 - Results submission deadline

* end of October, 2025 - VOTS2025 workshop at ICCV2025
<br>
<br>
<b>Participate by:</b> Running your single-target/multiple-target

trackers.
