Evaluation of MLLM-Agnostic Plug-and-Play Keyframe Selection Methods for Long Video Understanding

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.
