Open-world video understanding often requires a model to locate sparse visual evidence and acquire external knowledge that is absent from the video and its parametric memory. While Thinking-with-Video...
arXiv:2607. 02927v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video understanding is moving beyond closed-context perception toward open-world evidence exploration, a paradigm formalized as Video Deep Research (VDR).
arXiv:2608.25559v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video deep research answers complex questions by jointly understanding video content and retrieving external knowledge from the open Web. However, dive...
arXiv:2608. 03979v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Video-DeepResearch (Video-DR), extending multimodal agents from static images to continuous video streams, a setting that demands dense spatiotemporal grounding coupled with open-web exploration.
arXiv:2608. 08612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recently, retrieval-augmented and memory-augmented methods have emerged as two promising paradigms for long-video question answering.
The paper introduces the Very Big Video Reasoning (VBVR) Dataset, a large-scale collection of over one million video clips organized into 200 curated reasoning tasks. It also presents VBVR-Bench, a benchmark framework that uses rule-based, human-aligned scorers for reproducible evaluation of video reasoning models. The authors conduct a large-scale scaling study, noting early signs of emergent generalization to unseen reasoning tasks, and make all resources publicly available.
