AI video generation has advanced rapidly and entered widespread commercial use. As a result, quality differences among videos produced by state-of-the-art AI video generation models~(AIVGMs) have become increasingly difficult to discern using conventional evaluation criteria, such as visual fidelity and semantic instruction following.

Video generation models are increasingly capable of producing realistic videos, but they still struggle to generate videos that follow basic physical laws. Compounding this is a lack of reliable granular evaluation methods for localizing and specifying physical law violations in videos.

arXiv:2608. 09666v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in visual generative models have enabled high-quality image and video generation, but evaluating these models often demands sampling hundreds or thousands of images or videos, which is computationally expensive.

Vision-language models excel at video captioning, yet typically generate descriptions that fail to capture individual viewers' attention. We propose VEGAS (Video caption Evaluation via GAze Score), a training-free metric that leverages test-time gaze to sample personalized, attention-aligned text.
arXiv:2606. 24636v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cinematographic captioning aims to describe how a video is filmed using professional film-language concepts such as camera movement, shot size, depth of field, composition, and shooting angle.
