Video Evidence to Reasoning Efficient Video Understanding via Explicit Evidence Grounding

arXiv:2601. 07761v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) face a fundamental dilemma in video reasoning: they are caught between the prohibitive computational costs of verbose reasoning and the hallucination risks of efficient, ungrounded approaches.

video-SALMONN-R$^3$: Learning to ReWatch, ReAsk, and ReAnswer for Efficient Video Understanding

arXiv:2606. 24477v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video large language models (LLMs) are often constrained by computation and memory budgets, leading them to use reduced frame rates and spatial resolutions, which may cause them to miss critical information for question answering (QA).

Video Reasoning without Training

arXiv:2510. 17045v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Video reasoning using Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) relies on costly reinforcement learning (RL) and verbose chain-of-thought, resulting in substantial computational overhead during both training and inference.

VISD: Enhancing Video Reasoning via Structured Self-Distillation

arXiv:2605. 06094v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Training VideoLLMs for complex reasoning remains challenging due to sparse sequence level rewards and the lack of fine grained credit assignment over long, temporally grounded reasoning trajectories.
