UvA-DARE (Digital Academic Repository) Lost in Time: A New Temporal Benchmark for VideoLLMs

Zero-Shot Mission-Level Evaluation for Aerial MLLM Agents

This work introduces MissionBench, a benchmark for mission-level evaluation of MLLMs in aerial 3D environments, and shows that mission-level competence requires coordinating multiple capabilities beyond spatial perception, including multi-step planning and adaptive reasoning.

Beyond Frame Selection: Rethinking Long-Video Understanding with MLLMs

VideoRouter (VR) is proposed that rethinks long-video understanding as coordinating complementary evidence views rather than selecting a single subset of frames, and introduces a verification-guided router to determine which view is better supported by the selected evidence and select the final answer.

UvA-DARE (Digital Academic Repository) TWIST & SCOUT: Grounding Multimodal LLM-Experts by Forget-Free Tuning

This paper proposes TWIST, a twin-expert stepwise tuning module that modifies the decoder of the language model using one frozen module pre-trained on image understanding tasks and another learnable one for visual grounding tasks, which allows the MLLM to retain previously learned knowledge and skills, while acquiring...
