EVIDENT routes MLLM adaptation for video temporal grounding through entity-grounded visual evidence using an Entity Bottleneck Adapter, Entity-Binding Distillation, and Entity-to-eVidence gating to improve cross-domain robustness.
A proposer-solver agent pair achieves supervised-level video temporal grounding and fine-grained captioning from 2.5K unlabeled videos via self-reinforcing evolution.
OmniVTG creates a new large-scale open-world VTG dataset using iterative concept-gap filling and timestamped captioning, paired with a three-stage self-correction CoT paradigm that yields SOTA zero-shot results on four existing benchmarks.
Bridge-STG decouples spatio-temporal alignment via semantic bridging and query-guided localization modules to achieve state-of-the-art m_vIoU of 34.3 on VidSTG among MLLM methods.
Fully end-to-end training with a sentence-conditioned adapter outperforms frozen-backbone baselines for localizing video segments that match sentence queries.
TaRO improves video temporal grounding in MLLMs via constructive reasoning exploration from dense captions and a temporal-sensitivity reward that uses logit drops on disrupted event boundaries, followed by curriculum learning to SOTA results.
LyraV uses FDTC and SToP for per-frame incremental decoding to reach 98.29% video synchrony at 3.89 FPS while preserving general understanding.
DRIFT adapts pretrained VLMs to continuous decoding via a base predictor plus residual flow matching, outperforming regression and generative baselines on grounding and robotic control tasks.
MarkIt converts videos into query-conditioned marked versions via a linguistic-parsing and open-vocabulary segmentation bridge that embeds instance masks, semantic markers, and frame indices to improve Vid-LLM temporal grounding.

F2G improves video temporal grounding accuracy by decoupling event identification from boundary measurement using predictive temporal perception to create citable evidence segments for LLM reasoning.
A controlled study on compact video LLMs finds that continuous temporal decoding delivers the strongest accuracy-efficiency trade-off for video temporal grounding across three benchmarks.
TempR1 applies temporal-aware multi-task RL using GRPO and three types of localization rewards to achieve SOTA temporal understanding in MLLMs with synergistic gains from joint optimization.
InternVideo2.5 improves video MLLMs by incorporating dense vision task annotations via direct preference optimization and compact spatiotemporal representations via adaptive hierarchical token compression, yielding better benchmark performance, 6x longer video memory, and new capabilities likeobject
