arXiv:2608. 19723v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Streaming video understanding requires models to causally update state as video arrives and organize growing history into semantic units that can evolve, persist, and be recalled under bounded computation and memory.

The paper introduces the Semantic Action Graph, a lightweight domain schema that models a sports match using performer, action, recipient, moment, and state nodes linked by role, temporal, and outcome edges. This structure supports both an agentic pipeline for generating narrated highlights and a visual interface that lets viewers query and inspect the same representation. In a prototype called SportSAGE, 12 soccer fans reported satisfaction with the generated highlights and used the graph interface to search, navigate, and interpret match moments.

arXiv:2608. 20127v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video Temporal Grounding (VTG) faces significant challenges when natural language queries must distinguish between multiple events involving visually similar entities, particularly when relying on fine-grained visual attributes that are difficult to describe accurately in words alone.

MultiVENT‑Raw is a new multilingual benchmark comprising nearly 120,000 raw videos—continuous footage from cell phones, hand‑held cameras, or CCTV—totaling over 5,300 hours. The dataset includes 130 events and 222 event‑centric queries, along with human‑annotated relevance judgments and extracted key facts for relevant videos. It supports two tasks: retrieving videos relevant to a query event and generating a coherent report summarizing event‑related videos for a target user, with baseline models showing these tasks remain challenging.

OneStreamer is a streaming video model that jointly learns to record evidence and respond to tasks through a shared proactive generation process. Its Proactive Hierarchical Caption Memory creates time‑grounded local‑detail captions and event summaries, while Proactive State Transition Learning reduces waiting states by supervising all output anchors. The authors also built a large OneStreamer‑1M dataset and show that a 4B model outperforms baselines on eight streaming video benchmarks, with ablations confirming the benefits of generated captions and PSTL.
