GraphThinker: Reinforcing Temporally Grounded Video Reasoning with Event Graph Thinking

Zixu Cheng, Da Li, Jian Hu +4

Video reasoning requires a fine-grained understanding of the temporal dependencies and event-level relations between objects and events in videos. Current Multimodal Large Language…

Grounding Video Reasoning in Physical Signals

Alibay Osmanli, Zixu Cheng, Shaogang Gong

Physical video understanding requires more than naming an event correctly. A model can answer a question about pouring, sliding, or collision from textual regularities while still…

Leveraging Hallucinations to Reduce Manual Prompt Dependency in Promptable Segmentation

Jian Hu, Jiayi Lin, Junchi Yan +1

Promptable segmentation typically requires instance-specific manual prompts to guide the segmentation of each desired object. To minimize such a need, task-generic promptable segme…

ViSMaP: Unsupervised Hour-long Video Summarisation by Meta-Prompting

Jian Hu, Dimitrios Korkinof, Shaogang Gong +1

We introduce ViSMap: Unsupervised Video Summarisation by Meta Prompting, a system to summarise hour long videos with no-supervision. Most existing video understanding models work w…

V-STaR: Benchmarking Video-LLMs on Video Spatio-Temporal Reasoning

Zixu Cheng, Jian Hu, Ziquan Liu +3

Human processes video reasoning in a sequential spatio-temporal reasoning logic, we first identify the relevant frames ("when") and then analyse the spatial relationships ("where")…

CoS: Chain-of-Shot Prompting for Long Video Understanding

Jian Hu, Zixu Cheng, Chenyang Si +2

Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) struggle with long videos due to the need for excessive visual tokens. These tokens exceed massively the context length of MLLMs, resultin…
