Open World Object Detection (OWOD) built on multimodal foundation models often suffers from semantic ambiguity caused by unidirectional text-to-vision matching, while rigid outlier penalties may over-suppress unknown objects near known-class decision boundaries. We propose CODE (Cross-Modal Calibration and Dynamic Suppression), a unified inference-time framework with three complementary components. Cross-Modal Joint Confidence Calibration injects global visual prototypes to calibrate text-driven known-class predictions. Uncertainty-Guided Universal Objectness Enhancement measures classificatio
