SC$^{2}$-WM: A Self-Correcting World Model with Closed-Loop Feedback for Vision-and-Language Navigation in Continuous Environments

Vision-and-Language Navigation in Continuous Environments (VLN-CE) requires agents to make fine-grained navigation decisions under partial observability. However, most existing methods rely on open-loop execution, lacking mechanisms to detect and correct internal state drift during inference. We propose SC$^{2}$-WM, a self-correcting world model framework that introduces internal feedback for closed-loop decision making in VLN-CE. Our method derives feedback from world-model foresight to perform state-level plan refinement before action execution. To handle challenging scenarios, we further introduce conditional world-aware adaptation, which enables model-level correction by selectively updating the world model at test time when feedback indicates model capacity insufficiency. Experiments on standard VLN-CE benchmarks demonstrate improved navigation robustness and generalization. Our code is available at https://github.com/sunrise-ikun/SC2_WM.

Dual-level Adaptation for Multi-Object Tracking: Building Test-Time Calibration from Experience and Intuition

Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) has long been a fundamental task in computer vision, with broad applications in various real-world scenarios. However, due to distribution shifts in appearance, motion pattern, and catagory between the training and testing data, model performance degrades considerably during online inference in MOT. Test-Time Adaptation (TTA) has emerged as a promising paradigm to alleviate such distribution shifts. However, existing TTA methods often fail to deliver satisfactory results in MOT, as they primarily focus solely on frame-level adaptation while neglecting temporal consistency and identity association across frames and videos. Inspired by human decision-making process, this paper propose a Test-time Calibration from Experience and Intuition (TCEI) framework. In this framework, the Intuitive system utilizes transient memory to recall recently observed objects for rapid predictions, while the Experiential system leverages the accumulated experience from prior test videos to reassess and calibrate these intuitive predictions. Furthermore, both confident and uncertain objects during online testing are exploited as historical priors and reflective cases, respectively, enabling the model to adapt to the testing environment and alleviate performance degradation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed TCEI framework consistently achieves superior performance across multiple benchmark datasets and significantly enhances the model's adaptability under distribution shifts.
