arXiv:2607. 10299v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in large-scale multimodal models have drivenremarkable progress in vision-language tasks; however, comprehensiveomni-modal understanding remains under-explored, largely due to thescarcity of datasets with rich, explicitly aligned auditory cues.

The paper introduces Omni-Interactive Universal Embedder (OmniUE), a unified embedding framework that learns a single representation space for text, video, and audio using learnable tokens and intermediate-layer representations. OmniUE supports omni-interactive querying, allowing users to input text, visual regions, or audio spans, which are processed by segmenters and an omni-LLM to generate user-conditioned embeddings. The authors evaluate OmniUE on the new OmniCHOIR benchmark and other multimodal tasks, reporting significant performance gains over state‑of‑the‑art baselines across textual, audio, and visual interactive settings.

LEAP is a framework for long audio‑video question answering that avoids encoding entire recordings by dividing them into fixed‑duration blocks. It performs a lightweight localization pass on each block to score short candidate windows, then pools the highest‑ranked windows for a single bounded answer pass, keeping the answer input and peak context independent of recording length. The method trains both a localization LoRA and an answer LoRA, supports causal streaming queries, and achieves significant performance gains over baseline models on multiple AVQA benchmarks.
