arXiv:2510. 01483v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate strong image-level scene understanding, but reasoning over long egocentric video remains costly: because VLMs maintain no persistent memory or explicit spatial representation, all sampled frames must be re-processed for every new query.

STRAND is a new benchmark that tests multimodal large language models’ ability to track objects, their states, and relationships over time in videos. It evaluates intermediate reasoning by breaking queries into sub‑questions and uses Faithful Accuracy to ensure all parts of an answer are correct. The authors also propose an object‑centric framework that builds structured trajectories and shows reduced hallucinations and better temporal consistency compared to existing models.

WALL-WM is a World Action Model that shifts video-action learning from chunk-centric optimization to event-grounded Vision-Language-Action pretraining, using semantically coherent action events as the atomic unit of learning. Existing WAMs commonly initialize from multimodal or video foundation models and then optimize fixed-length action chunks conditioned directly on the current observation and instruction.

OmniVBench introduces a comprehensive benchmark and a large-scale dataset for omni reference-to-video (R2V) generation, addressing gaps in existing evaluations that focus only on limited reference types and holistic consistency. The benchmark expands evaluation across 7 task families and 18 fine-grained tasks, covering content, motion, style, structure, narrative, and multi-reference settings, and employs a factor‑grounded evaluation with 12,172 checklist items to assess preservation, disentanglement, and routing of reference factors. The accompanying Omni‑R2V Dataset provides 340K training samples derived from professional video footage, along with task‑specific pipelines for scalable data construction, enabling broader research and revealing performance gaps in current R2V models.
