Self-supervised learning from large-scale video data has emerged as a dominant paradigm for visual representation learning. Since audio and visual streams naturally co-occur in video data, extending this success to jointly learn from both modalities is a natural next step, yet it remains challenging.

We introduce Predictive State Retrieval (PSR), a task in which a model observes a short video prefix and a temporal question about an object's future state, then retrieves instances from other videos or images that depict that state. Unlike action anticipation, which predicts a label, moment retrieval, which localizes an observed event within a video, or video generation, which synthesizes pixels, PSR combines anticipation with cross-instance retrieval across multiple temporal horizons.

LeVJEPA is a video encoder that eliminates the need for architectural asymmetries, exponential-moving-average target encoders, stop-gradients, and capacity-limited predictors used in prior self‑supervised methods. It trains a single encoder with an invariance loss over global and local views, regularized by SIGReg to prevent collapse, and achieves strong performance with far less pretraining compute. The approach also allows block‑causal attention, making temporal ordering a property of the encoder itself, and matches or surpasses state‑of‑the‑art baselines on both appearance‑centric and motion‑centric benchmarks.

CoRE is a weakly supervised framework that learns fine-grained temporal and entity support for perceived risk in driving videos using only coarse video-level judgments. It first trains a video-level predictor, freezes it, and then uses structured interventions over candidate temporal regions or entity tracks to generate graded prediction-effect targets. These targets train a student model that can predict temporal and entity support directly from the original video, enabling fine-grained evidence localization without requiring detailed annotations.

The paper introduces Intrinsic Temporal Adaptation (ITA) for Partially Relevant Video Retrieval (PRVR), a task that seeks untrimmed videos containing moments relevant to a text query. ITA employs a Backbone-Internal Temporal Adaptation that lets the final visual transformer layers attend to neighboring frames, creating temporally aware embeddings while keeping CLIP frozen. Additionally, an Affinity-Weighted Gradient Propagation technique softly aggregates top‑k frames based on text‑frame affinities to better handle the weakly supervised nature of PRVR, leading to state‑of‑the‑art performance and more accurate frame‑level evidence retrieval.
