Abstract

This paper introduces EgoMAGIC (Medical Assistance, Guidance, Instruction, and Correction), an egocentric medical activity dataset collected as part of DARPA's Perceptually-enabled Task Guidance (PTG) program. This dataset comprises 3,355 videos of 50 medical tasks, with at least 50 labeled videos per task. The primary objective of the PTG program was to develop virtual assistants integrated into augmented reality headsets to assist users in performing complex tasks. To encourage exploration and research using this dataset, the medical training data has been released along with an action detection challenge focused on eight medical tasks. The majority of the videos were recorded using a head-mounted stereo camera with integrated audio. From this dataset, 40 YOLO models were trained using 1.95 million labels to detect 124 medical objects, providing a robust starting point for developers working on medical AI applications. In addition to introducing the dataset, this paper presents baseline results on action detection for the eight selected medical tasks across three models, with the best-performing method achieving average mAP 0.526. Although this paper primarily addresses action detection as the benchmark, the EgoMAGIC dataset is equally suitable for action recognition, object identification and detection, error detection, and other challenging computer vision tasks. The dataset is accessible via zenodo.org (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19239154).

Understanding From Human Perspective: A Multi-agent System for Interactive Egocentric Medical Image Segmentation

Interactive egocentric medical image segmentation (IEMIS) plays an important role in smart-glasses-assisted medical image review, segmenting the medical targets a clinician refers to from their egocentric view. Once it succeeds, the object-level visual evidence it provides strengthens the review and underpins fine-grained analysis and clinical decision-making. However, the instruction and the video both come from the user's egocentric perspective, which poses two challenges. (1) Semantic ambiguity leaves the model unable to confirm the user-intended target. (2) Visual variability makes the segmentation jump from frame to frame. In this paper, we propose EgoMed-Agent, a multi-agent system that understands the target from the human perspective through two workflows. (1) The \textit{Target Confirmation Workflow} grounds the instruction against candidate targets with a reliability score, confirming the target when the grounding is reliable and asking the user to clarify when it is not, thereby confirming the segmentation target. (2) The \textit{Localization-Guided Propagation Workflow} couples mask propagation with per-frame target localization, using the localized target to correct the propagated mask whenever the two diverge, so the segmentation stays on the target across the egocentric video. Extensive experiments show that EgoMed-Agent reaches 71.34% average Dice, far above the best text-prompted baseline (11.70%).

EgoTraj: Real-World Egocentric Human Trajectory Dataset for Multimodal Prediction

Accurately forecasting human trajectories from an egocentric perspective plays a central role in applications such as humanoid robotics, wearable sensing systems, and assistive navigation. However, progress in this direction remains limited due to the scarcity of egocentric trajectory datasets collected in real-world environments. Addressing this need, we introduce EgoTraj, an egocentric multimodal open dataset recorded using Meta Quest Pro (MQPro). EgoTraj contains 75 sequences of human navigation collected from multiple MQPro wearers in real-world urban environments. Each recording provides synchronized RGB video along with ground-truth data, including continuous time-synchronized 6-degree-of-freedom head poses, per-frame 3D eye gaze vectors, scene annotations. To the best of our knowledge, EgoTraj differs from typical egocentric trajectory datasets by capturing long-horizon, self-directed navigation across diverse urban routes with broad participant diversity. To demonstrate the potential of the dataset, we benchmark several state-of-the-art methods for egocentric trajectory prediction and conduct ablation studies to analyze the contributions of gaze, scene, and motion cues. The results highlight the utility of EgoTraj for AR-based perception, navigation, and assistive systems. The EgoTraj dataset, code, and EgoViz Dashboard are publicly available at https://github.com/yehiahmad/EgoTraj.

EgoPolice: A Benchmark for Egocentric Video Understanding in High-Stakes Police Body-Worn Camera Footage

We introduce EgoPolice, a carefully curated dataset of real, egocentric police-civilian interactions, sourced from publicly available body-worn camera videos. We select police-civilian action labels that are critical for police behavioral research and annotate them at a second-by-second granularity. The videos feature rapid and irregular camera motion, dense human interactions, and rare high-stakes events, making the dataset a challenging benchmark for motion-robust and context-aware egocentric perception. We provide two different tasks, classification and multiple-choice question-answering, and benchmark both open-source and closed-source models. We find that even the best video models like Gemini 2.5 Pro still struggle to accurately predict high-risk actions such as "Weapon Out". Beyond serving as a benchmark, EgoPolice provides a foundation for developing models capable of identifying events of interest in large-scale body-worn camera video repositories, enabling more efficient downstream human review.
