LVSum: A Benchmark for Timestamp-Aware Long Video Summarization

arXiv:2604. 10024v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Long video summarization presents significant challenges for multimodal large language models (MLLMs), particularly in maintaining temporal fidelity over extended durations and producing summaries that are both semantically and temporally grounded.

Do Generative Models Keep Time? A Time-Aware Evaluation of Synthetic Sequential Tabular Data

arXiv:2607. 15606v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic sequential tabular data are increasingly used for privacy-preserving data sharing, yet a generator can reproduce every marginal and every foreign-key relationship while emitting timestamps that run backwards or repeat, and while sending entities along paths that no real entity followed.

Cluster-Aware Matching via Laplacian Optimal Transport

arXiv:2607. 16178v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In many applications of matching, the point clouds to be matched are not merely unstructured sets of points but rather samples from distributions with an intrinsic cluster structure.
