Unleashing Multimodal Large Language Models for Training-free HOI Detection in the Wild
Human-object interaction detection (HOID) has traditionally been formulated as a supervised detection problem over predefined interaction categories. While such paradigms achieve strong performance on closed-set benchmarks, they fundamentally entangle interaction understanding with dataset-specific supervision, limiting their ability to generalize to open-world and compositional scenarios. Recent HOI detectors attempt to leverage MLLMs through prompting strategies to transfer interaction-specific knowledge. However, such prompt-based approaches primarily focus on extracting discriminative repr
