Tetris is a video object tracking system that uses tile-level sampling to efficiently extract high‑fidelity tracks. It partitions videos into tile‑based polyominoes, classifies relevant tiles, prunes redundant ones with an ILP under a user‑defined accuracy constraint, and packs the remaining polyominoes to minimize detector calls. On seven stationary‑video datasets, Tetris maintains less than a 5% loss in tracking accuracy while achieving up to 17.4× higher throughput than prior systems and up to 68.8× higher than a full‑frame reference pipeline.

In video understanding, vision-language models (VLMs) must ingest massive numbers of visual tokens, causing the computational and memory cost of the prefill stage to rise sharply. Such visual sequences are highly redundant along the spatio-temporal dimension, yet a high compression ratio is often accompanied by the loss of critical details.

arXiv:2608. 12032v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video diffusion transformers are costly to sample: every denoising step applies self-attention over a long 3D token sequence, a quadratic cost that dominates as resolution and duration grow.
