## Abstract (arXiv)

This technical report explores the MOSEv2 track of the LSVOS Challenge, which targets complex semi-supervised video object segmentation. By analysing and adapting SeC, an enhanced SAM-2 framework, we conduct a detailed study of its long-term memory and concept-aware memory, showing that long-term memory preserves temporal continuity under occlusion and reappearance, while concept-aware memory supplies semantic priors that suppress distractors; together, these traits directly benefit several MOSEv2's core challenges. Our solution achieves a JF score of 39.89% on the test set, ranking 1st in the MOSEv2 track of the LSVOS Challenge.
