arXiv:2606. 11930v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Predicting psychological traits from asynchronous video interviews (AVIs) is a challenging problem in AI-assisted interview assessment because labeled datasets are limited while each response contains high-dimensional visual, acoustic, and verbal signals.

E-AVI is a new framework for automated video interview assessment that combines verbal, acoustic, and visual data. It extracts timestamped multimodal evidence and uses dimension‑conditioned attention with source‑level embeddings to score candidates. The system also provides a shared evidence pool for natural‑language feedback and follow‑up question answering, outperforming multimodal baselines on RecruitView and a private hospitality dataset.

The article surveys multi‑turn conversational AI, highlighting its shift from isolated text prompts to sustained, multimodal interactions that involve clarifying goals, revising requests, and switching topics. It reviews literature across text‑only dialogue, AudioLLMs, multimodal and omni‑modal systems, and tool‑augmented agents, organizing findings around datasets, models, training, evaluation, and cross‑cutting challenges. The analysis reveals that while multimodal perception and action have progressed rapidly, systems still struggle with persistent memory, cross‑turn grounding, full‑duplex interaction, robust evaluation, and cultural alignment.
HUG‑VIS is a unified multimodal benchmark for human‑centered visual intelligence, comprising 8,400 half‑body videos of 30 professional actors performing 280 emotion‑action prompts in Mandarin. The dataset provides synchronized video, audio, text, and alpha mattes for four tasks—human emotion recognition, video generation, voice cloning, and video matting—allowing evaluation of both open‑ and closed‑source models under a zero‑shot protocol. Results reveal that linguistic cues dominate emotion recognition, visual affect is weakest, and that automatic metrics and human judgments diverge in generation and cloning tasks, while motion‑related boundary fidelity remains a key challenge for matting.

The paper introduces Omni Demand Understanding (ODU), a benchmark designed to test whether multimodal models can infer a user's underlying demand from complex audio‑visual interactions. ODU requires models to detect the presence of a demand and infer intent using multimodal and conversational context, evaluated across single‑turn and multi‑turn scenarios. The authors built ODU‑Bench through a taxonomy‑guided approach, agentic video generation, and human‑recorded interactions, and found that even top models like Gemini 3.1 Pro recover only 44.7% of key information, with many models exhibiting high false‑trigger rates.
