arXiv:2611.08976v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Referring multi-object tracking enables users to specify targets through natural language, but existing Refer-MOT benchmarks primarily focus on single-camera settings. We formalize Referring Multi-Target Multi-Camera Tracking (Refer-MTMCT), where free-form queries specify identity-consistent trajectories to be recovered across a network of sequential, sparse-overlap cameras. We introduce Refer-CityFlow, a benchmark built on CityFlow's global cross-camera identity annotations and augmented with language queries requiring joint language grounding, cross-camera association, and spatio-temporal reasoning. Refer-CityFlow covers 96 videos from 40 roadside cameras with 660+ identity-consistent cross-camera trajectories, 4,362 trajectory-level descriptions, and 7,699 queries, including 1,699 real-user queries collected from 50 participants. Reference experiments on the four-camera Scenario 02 show that single-camera referring trackers reach 14.95-18.28 HOTA on real-user queries, while the evaluated cross-view method achieves about 0.05 HOTA in direct transfer. To establish reference performance, we provide M3Track, a modular multimodal reference framework in which a large language model (LLM)-based agent orchestrates interchangeable detection, tracking, and cross-camera association modules. M3Track reaches 44.10 HOTA and 65.40 IDF1 on the same real-user query set. The project repository is available at https://github.com/phuongnguyen194/Refer-CityFlow-and--M3Track.
