arXiv:2607. 00446v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As video corpora continue to expand in both scale and task complexity, there is increasing demand for approaches that retrieve relevant videos from large-scale corpora (inter-video reasoning) and subsequently perform fine-grained, query-conditioned tasks (intra-video reasoning) within the retrieved content, such as temporal grounding.
arXiv:2609.10008v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Composed video retrieval (CoVR) searches a gallery for the target video that realizes a natural-language modification of a source clip. However, at gal...
arXiv:2608. 08612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recently, retrieval-augmented and memory-augmented methods have emerged as two promising paradigms for long-video question answering.
arXiv:2607. 02959v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce VSeek, an agentic framework that transforms long-video question answering (LVQA) from a passive, single-pass perception task into a multi-turn retrieval process.
arXiv:2607. 02927v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video understanding is moving beyond closed-context perception toward open-world evidence exploration, a paradigm formalized as Video Deep Research (VDR).
arXiv:2609.37426v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern vision-language models (VLMs) have shown promising results in long-video understanding due to the rich semantic information they can capture....
arXiv:2606. 07512v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current Vision-Language Models struggle with hours-long videos because processing full-length visual sequences induces prohibitive token explosion and attention dilution.
AdaVDR is an adaptive video deep research agent that selects and reflects on tool usage based on the task and the model’s capabilities. It constructs a specialized data pipeline to generate high‑quality QA pairs and uses model‑conditioned filtering to remove unnecessary tool calls. The agent is trained with supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning, achieving top performance on the VDR‑EE benchmark and significant gains on VideoDR.
arXiv:2604.17422v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Long video understanding remains a formidable challenge for Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) due to the prohibitive cost of processing dens...
Open-world video understanding often requires a model to locate sparse visual evidence and acquire external knowledge that is absent from the video and its parametric memory. While Thinking-with-Video...
arXiv:2607. 24794v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) demonstrate superior generalization in fundamental video tasks, restricted context windows limit their long video understanding.
arXiv:2506. 01274v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent progress in Large Multi-modal Models (LMMs) has enabled effective vision-language reasoning, yet the ability to video understanding remains constrained by suboptimal frame selection strategies, albeit with the rapid development of video-specialized LMMs.
arXiv:2610.00573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Query-aware keyframe selection enables multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to process long videos using only a small set of question-relevant fram...
