## Abstract (arXiv)

Video segmentation models recognize and track objects over time, but they do not indicate whether each segmented region moves independently of the observing camera. This dynamicity attribute cannot be inferred from semantics alone and is confounded by camera ego-motion. We introduce method, an online framework that augments query-based video segmentation with region-level dynamicity prediction. It jointly produces the original segmentation outputs and a dynamic or static state for each predicted region. At inference, DynEoMT uses only the current frame and propagated queries, without optical flow, depth, camera pose, previous RGB frames, or feature maps. Because established video segmentation benchmarks do not annotate this attribute, we also introduce a class-agnostic offline supervision pipeline using camera-compensated optical flow and confidence-aware temporal filtering. Across VIPSeg, OVIS, YouTube-VIS 2022, and VSPW, DynEoMT achieves balanced accuracies of 84.3, 68.0, 68.6, and 87.6, respectively, while largely preserving segmentation performance. These results show that segmentation-region dynamicity can be learned from propagated queries, enabling its online prediction without a dedicated motion-processing pipeline at inference. The complete code will be released as open source to enable full reproduction of the method and experiments.
