VidOmni-Bench: A Benchmark for Fine-Grained Video Understanding via Spatio-Temporal Event Verification across Complexity and Duration

VidOmni-Bench is a new benchmark for fine‑grained video understanding that asks models to verify whether each event in dense video captions is supported by the video. It contains 500 videos covering five complexity types and durations from 4 seconds to 90 minutes, and uses human‑verified sentence‑level labels to create hard negatives. Experiments show that Video‑LLMs often hallucinate events, struggle to detect incorrect descriptions, and exhibit varying weaknesses depending on video complexity and duration.

ID-VTG: Image-Disambiguated Video Temporal Grounding

arXiv:2608. 20127v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video Temporal Grounding (VTG) faces significant challenges when natural language queries must distinguish between multiple events involving visually similar entities, particularly when relying on fine-grained visual attributes that are difficult to describe accurately in words alone.

PercepCap: Video Captioner with Structured Spatio-Temporal Perception

PercepCap is a video captioning framework that explicitly models spatio‑temporal perception before generating captions. It follows a perceive‑describe chain, first producing a perception trace of object trajectories and temporal events, then generating the final caption conditioned on that trace. The method uses a two‑stage training strategy—supervised fine‑tuning followed by perception‑grounded reinforcement learning—and builds caption‑aligned perception data to ensure the perception trace and caption refer to the same objects and events.
