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.
Omni-DuplexEval creates a new benchmark and LLM-as-a-Judge framework for real-time duplex omni-modal interaction, revealing that current models score below 40% overall and struggle especially with proactive responses.
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.
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.
Video-R1 uses temporal-aware RL and mixed datasets to boost video reasoning in MLLMs, with a 7B model reaching 37.1% on VSI-Bench and surpassing GPT-4o.
WorldSense provides the first benchmark requiring synergistic audio-video-text understanding on 1,662 real-world videos and 3,172 QA pairs, where the best current multimodal LLM reaches only 65.1% accuracy.
Lance presents a dual-stream mixture-of-experts model with modality-aware positional encoding and staged multi-task training that outperforms prior open-source unified models on image and video generation while keeping strong understanding performance.
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.
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.
VISD proposes structured self-distillation with a multi-dimensional judge model and direction-magnitude decoupling to improve token-level credit assignment and convergence speed in VideoLLM reasoning training.
Omni is a multimodal model whose native training on diverse data types enables context unrolling, allowing explicit reasoning across modalities to better approximate shared knowledge and improve downstream performance.
Reinforcement fine-tuning with temporal rewards produces VideoChat-R1, a video MLLM showing large gains on spatio-temporal perception benchmarks such as +31.8 temporal grounding and +31.2 object tracking.
Seed1.5-VL is a compact multimodal model that sets new records on dozens of vision-language benchmarks and outperforms prior systems on agent-style tasks.
VideoLLaMA3 uses a vision-centric training paradigm and token-reduction design to reach competitive results on image and video benchmarks.
