As generative multimedia evolves from static image synthesis to complex, interleaved visual narratives, a foundational bottleneck has emerged: the judgment crisis. While human perception naturally synthesizes the temporal and logical flow of a story, automated evaluation systems remain largely "blind" to sequential continuity, often failing to distinguish between a coherent narrative and a semantically shuffled or contradictory sequence.

arXiv:2606. 00987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have shown strong visual understanding and language-guided grounding abilities, yet their capacity for multi-temporal visual reasoning remains underexplored.

arXiv:2607. 11798v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-form audio description (AD) requires more than describing visible actions: it must preserve characters, events, relationships, and story context across scenes so that blind and low-vision (BLV) audiences can follow a film.

arXiv:2608. 13210v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-form video understanding encompasses tasks that go beyond retrieving isolated events, including tracking an evolving narrative and interpreting social meaning that may remain implicit.

arXiv:2606. 07512v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current Vision-Language Models struggle with hours-long videos because processing full-length visual sequences induces prohibitive token explosion and attention dilution.
