Abstract

Hyperspectral video provides material cues that can disambiguate targets with similar false-color appearance, yet foundation-model trackers update memory primarily from spatial and appearance evidence. We present HyperDAM, a DAM4SAM3-based hyperspectral tracker with three principal contributions. First, HOTC2026-Modal adds human-verified frame-wise modal masks and mask-tight boxes to all 481 organizer-provided HOTC 2026 videos. Second, a frame-zero-calibrated HSI gate rejects spectrally inconsistent updates to the distractor-resolving memory (DRM) without altering the current prediction. Third, a causal spatiotemporal expander adds outward-only amodal corrections from frozen SAM features. Static-scene recovery and empty-mask RTS smoothing address target switches and full occlusion. Model selection prioritizes cross-domain robustness over leaderboard-specific optimization. The final system ranked second in HOTC 2026, achieving 68.0093% AUC and 87.7703% DP@20 in the organizer's private evaluation.
