The paper introduces LatentStream, a progressive latent working memory framework for streaming video understanding. It replaces the traditional store‑and‑retrieve approach with a retrieve‑and‑internalize strategy, organizing visual history into short, mid, and long‑term levels and progressively expanding memory receptive fields to internalize evidence into a compact latent memory. The method also employs confidence‑guided optimization to refine memory tokens, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on online and offline video benchmarks.
The paper introduces LatentStream, a progressive latent working memory framework for streaming video understanding that replaces the traditional store‑and‑retrieve paradigm with a retrieve‑and‑internalize approach. It organizes visual history into short, mid, and long‑term levels using Jenks‑guided adaptive consolidation, then expands memory receptive fields to iteratively retrieve and internalize evidence into a compact latent memory. A confidence‑guided optimization further refines this memory, leading to state‑of‑the‑art performance on online and offline video benchmarks.

arXiv:2606. 17798v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the remarkable progress of Video Large Language Models (Video-LLMs), current online architectures still struggle to simultaneously process continuous video streams, decide autonomously when to respond, and preserve long-horizon contextual memory.
