AoE means Anywhere on Earth (UTC−12). The organizers will hand off the summary paper's final metadata by November 2, 2026. The archival camera-ready deadline is November 20, 2026, 23:59 Pacific Time (PST, UTC−8). See the paper publication schedule for details.
Estimate a boat-mounted camera's trajectory from RGB or thermal video, calibration and frame timestamps. The full development dataset is available: 92 RGB and thermal clips, with a public starter for local inference and evaluation. Test predictions can now be submitted online.
Detect divers as full 9-DoF oriented boxes — centre, extents and a complete SO(3) rotation — from sparse 3D sonar point clouds. Divers pitch and roll freely, so yaw-only 3D detectors do not apply; ranking is by the Sonar–Diver Detection Score, which weights full-3D orientation error alongside AP. The dataset is available: 36 scenes, 37,010 sonar frames and 34,568 annotated divers, with the official scorer included. Online submissions are open.
Restore degraded underwater images and segment marine life (background/coral/fish/elasmobranch/other). Two tracks are open: a public, self-serve Dev-set leaderboard, and an embedded track scored on real Jetson AGX Orin hardware that carries more weight towards final standings.
