The paper evaluates five training‑free, plug‑and‑play keyframe selection methods for multimodal large language models (MLLMs) on long‑video understanding tasks. It compares these methods across three different MLLMs and three video question‑answering benchmarks, finding that QAaF performs best in 13 of 15 settings while FOCUS ranks second. The study offers a unified benchmark for assessing MLLM‑agnostic keyframe selection techniques.
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:2608.05707v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Frame selection is essential for applying Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) to long videos due to severe frame redundancy and limited context windows....
arXiv:2608. 07663v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When videos extend from hours to days, directly processing them end-to-end becomes impractical for current Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs).
arXiv:2603. 18558v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Long-form video question answering requires reasoning over extended temporal contexts, making frame selection a critical bottleneck for multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) bound by finite context windows.
arXiv:2610.00757v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-video question answering is limited by the high cost of visual tokens and by the fixed context width of current VLMs. A long-video question may re...
arXiv:2506. 01274v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent progress in Large Multi-modal Models (LMMs) has enabled effective vision-language reasoning, yet the ability to video understanding remains constrained by suboptimal frame selection strategies, albeit with the rapid development of video-specialized LMMs.
