arXiv:2606. 01223v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite substantial progress in long-context modeling, existing benchmarks remain confined to factual memory for explicit recall, failing to measure the reflective memory required to synthesize fragmented, multimodal cues into high-level interpretations.

arXiv:2607. 21447v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The ability to handle long-term memory in LLMs is becoming increasingly critical, yet existing benchmarks remain English-centric and rely on aggregate retrieval metrics, failing to capture interactions between long-range context, temporal information, and reasoning.

arXiv:2608. 13113v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have led to substantial progress in video understanding, accompanied by a growing number of long video benchmarks.

arXiv:2607. 22575v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Human episodic memory supports the retrieval of experiences that unfold over extended timescales, yet the computational mechanisms underlying this ability remain debated due to the limited mechanistic accessibility in long-term memory experiments in humans.

arXiv:2602. 12279v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Unified models can handle both multimodal understanding and generation within a single architecture, yet they typically operate in a single pass without iteratively refining their outputs.
