The paper introduces CamVLM, a framework that equips large vision‑language models with the ability to actively control camera viewpoints for improved surveillance video understanding. It presents two new datasets: CCTV‑Anomaly, a large‑scale surveillance video collection with detailed captions and event annotations, and CamTrack‑53K, an object‑centric viewpoint trajectory dataset for learning camera actions. Using reinforcement learning, CamVLM learns long‑horizon observation strategies, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance in both passive and dynamic viewpoint settings.

Recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong potential for autonomous driving scene understanding, yet existing methods still face a fundamental trade-off between temporal reasoning and spatial precision. Models that rely on single-frame or low-resolution inputs often miss small, distant, or partially occluded hazards, while language-centric driving models frequently provide limited grounded evidence for their explanations.
Bird's-Eye View (BEV) end-to-end instance prediction has emerged as a robust paradigm for autonomous driving perception, effectively mitigating the error propagation inherent in traditional modular pipelines. However, current state-of-the-art approaches rely predominantly on geometric supervision, such as occupancy regression and optical flow, effectively treating scene agents as generic moving obstacles.
