arXiv:2606. 06294v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Temporal Grounding (TG) aims to localize video segments corresponding to a textual query.
arXiv:2607. 04872v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reasoning temporal localization (RTL) requires a model to generate an answer that itself contains the time interval supporting it, so high-level reasoning and precise temporal grounding must be produced jointly in a single response.
Video captioning requires fine-grained spatio-temporal understanding of videos, including spatial perception of where objects are located and temporal perception of when events occur. Existing MLLMs usually generate captions directly from video inputs without exposing the perceptual evidence behind descriptions.
arXiv:2510. 14904v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Dense Video Object Captioning (DVOC) is the task of jointly detecting, tracking, and captioning object trajectories in a video, requiring the ability to understand spatio-temporal details and describe them in natural language.
arXiv:2607. 02963v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dense video captioning aims to generate temporally grounded descriptions of video events, benefiting both event-level video understanding and generation.
arXiv:2607. 02959v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce VSeek, an agentic framework that transforms long-video question answering (LVQA) from a passive, single-pass perception task into a multi-turn retrieval process.
Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in video temporal grounding with reinforcement learning for generating reasoning paths. However, existing models often produce superficial reasoning, which offers limited guidance for precise temporal localization.
arXiv:2606. 12300v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Temporal grounding--returning the interval $[t_s, t_e]$ for a natural-language query over a video--is the language interface to long-form video, yet has been studied on short videos; the dynamics of hour-scale natural-language grounding remain underexplored.
Improving video captioning quality typically demands retraining large vision-language models, an expensive and often impractical requirement. Existing training-free alternatives instead ground captions in detected objects to curb hallucination, but apply only a single, fixed correction pass without prioritizing which objects matter most, leaving semantically significant content omitted.
arXiv:2607. 24794v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) demonstrate superior generalization in fundamental video tasks, restricted context windows limit their long video understanding.
arXiv:2606. 09109v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video retrieval at scale is central to data curation and safety validation in autonomous driving, where users want to find not only scenes but also dynamic events such as cut-ins and hard braking.
arXiv:2606. 01591v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The TimeLogic Challenge evaluates formal temporal-logic reasoning over video - 16 operators (before, after, until, since, always, co-occur, ordering, ...
We introduce Predictive State Retrieval (PSR), a task in which a model observes a short video prefix and a temporal question about an object's future state, then retrieves instances from other videos or images that depict that state. Unlike action anticipation, which predicts a label, moment retrieval, which localizes an observed event within a video, or video generation, which synthesizes pixels, PSR combines anticipation with cross-instance retrieval across multiple temporal horizons.
