TraceAV-Bench is the first benchmark for multi-hop trajectory reasoning over long audio-visual videos, showing top models reach only 51-68% accuracy with substantial room for improvement.
DriveSpatial benchmark shows the strongest of 15 VLMs trails humans by 28.4 points on spatiotemporal tasks, with cognitive scene construction as the primary weakness.
VGenST-Bench is a new video benchmark for MLLM spatio-temporal reasoning built via generative synthesis, a multi-agent pipeline with human oversight, a 3x2x2 taxonomy, and hierarchical tasks separating perception from reasoning.
Introduces the Grounded Personality Reasoning task and MM-OCEAN dataset to show that MLLMs frequently produce correct Big Five personality ratings without grounding them in observable video evidence.
GRASP is a large-scale dataset and benchmark for social reasoning grounded in gaze and gesture events in multi-person videos, with Social Grounding Reward (SGR) proposed to improve model performance on GRASP-Bench.
ReTool-Video uses a 134-tool meta-augmented library and recursive grounding to translate abstract video intents into fine-grained multimodal operations, outperforming baselines on MVBench, MLVU, and Video-MME.
TOC-Bench is a new diagnostic benchmark that reveals major weaknesses in temporal object consistency for Video-LLMs, including event counting, ordering, identity reasoning, and hallucination avoidance.
SYNCR benchmark shows leading MLLMs reach only 52.5% average accuracy on cross-video reasoning tasks against an 89.5% human baseline, with major weaknesses in physical and spatial reasoning.
Temporal information in Video-LLMs is encoded well by video-centric encoders but disrupted by standard projectors; time-preserved MLPs plus AoT supervision yield 98.1% accuracy on arrow-of-time and gains on other temporal tasks.
CRPO applies counterfactual videos and a cross-branch relation reward in RL post-training to reduce shortcut reliance in Video LLMs, with gains shown on the new DyBench paired benchmark.
ParaVT introduces the first multi-agent RL framework for parallel video tool calling in LMMs, using PARA-GRPO to resolve the Tool Prior Paradox and achieve +7.9% average improvement over Qwen3-VL baseline across six benchmarks.
Continued pre-training with balanced long-document VQA data extends a 7B LVLM to 128K context, improving long-document VQA by 7.1% and generalizing to 512K without further training.
OTT-Vid uses optimal transport with non-uniform token mass and locality-aware costs to dynamically allocate compression budgets across video frames, retaining 95.8% VQA and 73.9% VTG performance at 10% token retention.
LDDR proposes a linear DPP-based dynamic-resolution frame sampler that achieves 3x speedup and up to 2.5-point gains on video MLLM benchmarks by selecting non-redundant frames and allocating tokens accordingly.
Video-MME-v2 is a new benchmark that applies progressive visual-to-reasoning levels and non-linear group scoring to expose gaps in video MLLM capabilities.
OmniSelect is a training-free, modality-adaptive token pruning framework that dynamically selects Audio-Centric, Video-Centric, or Uniform compression regimes using AudioCLIP cross-modal relevance scores and then applies adaptive fine-grained pruning within temporal groups.
OmniRefine introduces alignment-aware chunk refinement via similarity and dynamic programming followed by modality-cooperative token compression, achieving near-baseline accuracy at 44% token retention on WorldSense.
