A motion-only embedding trained on synthetic point tracks matches or beats large appearance-based video models on temporal tasks and improves them when combined.
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.
