AVENUE: Audio-Video EditiNg Understanding and Evaluation

AVENUE is a new benchmark and evaluation framework for audio‑video editing that includes 1,291 source clips and 7,957 editing instructions covering audio‑targeted, video‑targeted, and coupled edits. It introduces a sample‑specific, modality‑aware evaluation that specifies the intended change and the content that must remain unchanged. The study applies this framework to joint, sequential, and separate editing models, revealing that existing models often alter unintended modalities, highlighting a key challenge in controllable AV editing.

OmniEdit-Bench: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Instruction-based Video Editing

OmniEdit-Bench introduces a comprehensive benchmark for instruction-based video editing (IVE), addressing limitations of existing datasets by covering spatial, temporal, audio, and reference-based editing tasks and distinguishing explicit from implicit instructions. The evaluation framework assesses editing quality across accuracy, preservation, realism, and consistency, using human judgments and vision-language models, and incorporates an accuracy-aware penalty to ensure instruction fidelity. Experiments reveal that current IVE models perform poorly, highlighting the need for improved methods.

One Editor, Many Edits: A Unified Training-Free Framework for Diverse Video Editing

The paper introduces EditVid, a training‑free framework for video editing that unifies instruction‑guided and reference‑guided edits. It employs sparse causal memory for local coherence, correspondence‑based post‑attention token injection for long‑range identity preservation, and soft latent blending for edit locality. EditVid supports a wide range of editing tasks—including style transfer, attribute modification, object insertion, part‑level editing, and subject replacement—and outperforms the strongest training‑free baseline on FiVE while achieving competitive results on IVEBench, with a user study showing a 51.8% overall preference over seven competing methods.

RefVideo-6M: A Reliable Reference-Based Dataset for Instructional Video Editing

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.
