RefVideo-6M is a new large-scale reference-guided editing dataset that includes 5 million video editing samples and 1 million image editing samples, each paired with about 6 million visual references. The dataset is constructed to avoid artifacts by using real, artifact‑free videos as targets and filtering input conditions with multiple editing experts, thereby providing reliable supervision. It enables models to learn fine‑grained visual correspondence beyond text‑only instructions and supports the training of a reference‑guided video editing model, Ref‑MoT, which shows improved visual quality, controllability, and reference consistency.

SemComp-Bench introduces a new video generation task called Semantic Task Completion, where a model must produce a video that achieves a specified outcome while maintaining semantic alignment with a reference image. The benchmark includes the SemComp-Data dataset, spanning six domains, and a four-stage curation pipeline that transforms raw videos into standardized instances. Evaluation is performed via a vision‑language model that answers structured binary questions, yielding Outcome Achievement (OA) and Generation Reliability (GR) scores.

AdaVDR is an adaptive video deep research agent that selects and reflects on tool usage based on the task and the model’s capabilities. It constructs a specialized data pipeline to generate high‑quality QA pairs and uses model‑conditioned filtering to remove unnecessary tool calls. The agent is trained with supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning, achieving top performance on the VDR‑EE benchmark and significant gains on VideoDR.

OmniAssistBench is a new benchmark for evaluating omni-modal large language models (Omni-LLMs) as real‑time video assistants that actively guide users toward goals. The benchmark addresses the challenge of dynamic interaction paths by providing models with predefined priors from source videos, forcing them to follow the same routes as users. The dataset was constructed by reverse‑engineering existing Internet videos into multi‑turn clips, a process that required over 1,000 expert person‑hours. Results show that proprietary Gemini‑3‑Pro scores 66.4/100 while open‑source Qwen3‑Omni‑Instruct scores 51.2, revealing that current models often give incorrect or incomplete answers, struggle with visual prompts, and fail to maintain context or delay responses until target events.

Video-IFBench is a new benchmark designed to evaluate how well multimodal large language models (MLLMs) follow user-specified instructions in video understanding tasks. It introduces an instruction taxonomy with four templates—single-task, multi-task, selection, and nested—covering 32 task types and 39 constraint categories that span semantic and format requirements. The benchmark was built using a semi-automatic pipeline that combines MLLMs, programmatic processing, and human verification, producing 1.5K samples, and a large-scale evaluation of over 20 recent MLLMs shows that instruction following remains difficult, especially for complex constraints and conditional structures.
