Abstract
3D multi-object tracking (MOT) is a key problem for autonomous vehicles, required to perform well-informed motion planning in dynamic environments. Particularly for densely occupied scenes, associating tracks to new detections remains challenging as existing systems tend to omit critical contextual information. Our proposed solution, InterTrack, introduces the Interaction Transformer for 3D MOT to generate discriminative object representations for data association. We extract state and shape features for each track and detection, and efficiently aggregate global information via attention. We then perform a learned regression on each track/detection feature pair to estimate affinities, and use a robust two-stage data association and track management approach to produce the final tracks. We validate our approach on the nuScenes 3D MOT benchmark, where we observe significant improvements, particularly on classes with small physical sizes and clustered objects. As of submission, InterTrack ranks 1<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">st</sup> in overall AMOTA among methods using CenterPoint [1] detections.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
