CapMap-MS-TTA: 3rd Place Solution for the MUMU Track of the 8th LSVOS Challenge at ECCV 2026

Counts differ because each database indexes a different set of publications. We treat OpenAlex as the canonical count; Google Scholar is not shown (no API, and crawling it violates its ToS).

The MUMU track of the 8th Large-scale Video Object Segmentation (LSVOS) Challenge requires a single unified multimodal model to jointly solve image tagging (Task A), open-vocabulary object detection (Task B), and English captioning (Task C) under strict resource constraints (<=0.5B parameters and <=8 GB peak GPU memory). We present CapMap-MS-TTA, a training-free submission built on Microsoft Florence-2-base (~231M parameters), combining caption keyword mapping with multi-scale flip test-time augmentation. Task C uses the native pathway with length/token sanitization. Task A maps the same detailed caption into the official quality/scene/event vocabularies via an expanded keyword lexicon with whole-word matching and a lightweight expand-hints stage. Task B runs Florence-2 open detection () with multi-scale and horizontal-flip test-time augmentation (TTA), followed by label-aware non-maximum suppression (NMS). Without fine-tuning, the system improves our reproduced Florence-2 baseline from 15.16 to a best public score of 16.4815, and ranks 3rd on the final MUMU leaderboard.
