VisionCoach: Reinforcing Grounded Video Reasoning via Visual-Perception Prompting

VisionCoach is an input‑adaptive reinforcement learning framework that enhances spatio‑temporal grounding in video reasoning by using visual prompting during training. The system selectively applies visual prompts to challenging inputs, amplifying question‑relevant evidence and suppressing distractors, and then internalizes these improvements through self‑distillation so that inference can be performed on raw videos without prompts. Experiments on multiple benchmarks (V‑STAR, VideoMME, World‑Sense, VideoMMMU, PerceptionTest, and Charades‑STA) show that VisionCoach achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance while maintaining a single efficient inference pathway.
