The top teams with highest averaged CiDER-D, METEOR, and SPICE scores on the official leaderboard at [2coool.net](2coool.net) will undergo a finalist evaluation where competition and/or workshop organizers without conflicts will blindly rank a subset of final reports. The two highest human-ranked teams will receive the following prizes.

The best-scoring submission will receive a $1,500 award, and the second-place submission will receive $1,000. All competition entrants are invited to submit a paper to the 2COOOL ICCV2025 non-archival track on OpenReview:
