OmniEdit-Bench introduces a comprehensive benchmark for instruction-based video editing (IVE), addressing limitations of existing datasets by covering spatial, temporal, audio, and reference-based editing tasks and distinguishing explicit from implicit instructions. The evaluation framework assesses editing quality across accuracy, preservation, realism, and consistency, using human judgments and vision-language models, and incorporates an accuracy-aware penalty to ensure instruction fidelity. Experiments reveal that current IVE models perform poorly, highlighting the need for improved methods.
The paper introduces Sora100K, a dataset that captures AI‑Native video creation workflows as structured trajectories rather than isolated clips. It categorizes trajectories into text‑to‑video generation roots, single‑turn editing edges, and multi‑turn editing sequences, annotating each with semantic and operation labels via a VLM. A rigorous construction pipeline ensures accurate source‑to‑edit lineage and intermediate states, and lightweight adaptation on LTX‑2 models demonstrates improved visual quality, multi‑shot generation, and cross‑shot consistency, though multi‑turn editing remains challenging.

WeVisCut is a long‑form script‑to‑video system that unifies narration, editing, and tool execution into a single agent. It uses a four‑stage data pipeline that reconstructs editing intent from finished videos, generating over 130K training examples to train a 9B policy capable of coordinating production and recovering from failures. The system introduces a 100‑task benchmark with five metrics, outperforming its base model, matching Claude Opus 5 in performance while using far fewer tokens, and surpassing task‑matched native editors on the proposed metrics.

CoinVE-200K is a large, high‑quality dataset for compositional instruction‑guided video editing, featuring 1080p video‑editing pairs up to 201 frames long and containing 2–5 atomic editing operations per sample. The dataset covers diverse editing intents—targeting humans, objects, and backgrounds with addition, removal, modification, and stylization—while ensuring instruction faithfulness, visual quality, temporal consistency, and compositional diversity through a careful generation and filtering pipeline. CoinVE-Bench benchmarks these capabilities, and CoinVE-Edit, a 22B model built on Wan2.1‑T2V‑14B and Qwen3‑VL‑8B‑Instruct, demonstrates strong performance in instruction following, compositional editing accuracy, visual quality, and temporal consistency.
VINCIE‑NExT is a unified framework that transfers image editing capabilities to video editing by using in‑context visual demonstrations. It decomposes video editing into a chain of sub‑tasks (Video → Image → Image → Video), routing editing intent through the image domain and enabling joint training from heterogeneous image and video data under a single diffusion objective. The method introduces a novel position encoding to link image demonstrations and video frames, allowing pixel‑faithful appearance propagation, and supports test‑time scaling through progressive diffusion stages.
AVENUE is a new benchmark and evaluation framework for audio‑video editing that includes 1,291 source clips and 7,957 editing instructions covering audio‑targeted, video‑targeted, and coupled edits. It introduces a sample‑specific, modality‑aware evaluation that specifies the intended change and the content that must remain unchanged. The study applies this framework to joint, sequential, and separate editing models, revealing that existing models often alter unintended modalities, highlighting a key challenge in controllable AV editing.
MTEdit is a new multi‑turn image editing dataset that uses packed trajectory canvas (PTC) generation to create 500K editing trajectories, each up to eight turns with an average of 5.38 turns. The dataset addresses visual‑quality drift by jointly generating multiple editing states within a unified visual context, covering both step‑wise and context‑aware editing scenarios. MTEdit-Bench evaluates models on instruction following, content consistency, visual‑quality drift resistance, and historical context usage, and fine‑tuned Qwen‑Image‑MTEdit outperforms other open‑source models on this benchmark.
RefVideo-6M is a new large-scale reference-guided editing dataset that includes 5 million video editing samples and 1 million image editing samples, each paired with about 6 million visual references. The dataset is constructed to avoid artifacts by using real, artifact‑free videos as targets and filtering input conditions with multiple editing experts, thereby providing reliable supervision. It enables models to learn fine‑grained visual correspondence beyond text‑only instructions and supports the training of a reference‑guided video editing model, Ref‑MoT, which shows improved visual quality, controllability, and reference consistency.
