arXiv:2607. 24582v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-video understanding increasingly relies on large vision-language models and tool-augmented reasoning, but most systems apply the same inference procedure to every example regardless of difficulty.

arXiv:2606. 24477v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video large language models (LLMs) are often constrained by computation and memory budgets, leading them to use reduced frame rates and spatial resolutions, which may cause them to miss critical information for question answering (QA).

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: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.
