The explosive growth of user-generated video content on online platforms is accompanied by the emergence of numerous near-duplicate videos--videos that are identical or highly similar but differ by partial edits. These duplicates degrade user experience and increase storage and bandwidth costs, making large-scale video deduplication a critical task.

arXiv:2606. 07546v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Capturing user interests across extensive watch histories is critical for short-form video recommendation, yet scaling sequence length is limited by two bottlenecks: the semantic sparsity of atomic Video IDs and the quadratic computational complexity of Transformers.
arXiv:2608. 07663v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When videos extend from hours to days, directly processing them end-to-end becomes impractical for current Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs).
High-resolution image and video diffusion models, including SD3, FLUX, and recent video diffusion transformers, have substantially improved generative quality but remain expensive at inference time because they repeatedly evaluate attention-heavy denoisers over many sampling steps. We address this inefficiency by exploiting redundancy in intermediate diffusion features rather than changing model weights or retraining.

arXiv:2605. 16366v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Video MLLMs face a persistent tension between spatial fidelity and temporal coverage: preserving fine-grained visual details requires many spatial tokens, while capturing short-lived events requires dense temporal sampling.
Recent advancements in MLLM-based long-form video understanding have mitigated inference-time computational cost and limited context lengths by selecting query-relevant frames. However, existing approaches predominantly rely on external proxy scorers and rigid heuristic rules, inevitably suffering from misalignment with the target MLLM's intrinsic evidence and failing to accommodate the non-uniform spatiotemporal information density.
arXiv:2608. 07408v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study visual persistence in interactive video world models.
Long-video understanding remains challenging for multimodal large language models, because temporally extended videos often contain thousands of frames and are therefore expensive to process exhaustively. Existing methods usually construct compact visual inputs from long videos under a limited visual budget.
arXiv:2608. 08612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recently, retrieval-augmented and memory-augmented methods have emerged as two promising paradigms for long-video question answering.
