MAVIS: Multi-Agent Video Retrieval via Structured Video Understanding

The dominant paradigm in video retrieval relies on embedding-based full-corpus scanning, which suffers from inherent computational inefficiency and the semantic asymmetry between information-dense videos and sparse textual queries. To bridge this gap, we introduce \textbf{MAVIS}, a novel multi-agent framework that rethinks retrieval as cooperative reasoning rather than brute-force search. MAVIS first bridges the granularity mismatch by parsing raw videos into a \textbf{Structured Semantic Library}, enabling explicit attribute-level indexing. During retrieval, a planner decomposes complex user intents into atomic sub-tasks, dispatching specialized agents to independently nominate candidates. Crucially, MAVIS employs a \textbf{Logic-aware Debate} mechanism with a strict veto protocol, where agents collaboratively prune logical mismatches to identify a compact set of ``controversial'' candidates for fine-grained verification. This agentic workflow effectively bypasses the inefficiency of full-library traversal. Extensive experiments on MSR-VTT, MSVD, and ActivityNet demonstrate that MAVIS achieves competitive performance without task-specific fine-tuning, offering a scalable and interpretable alternative to traditional dual-encoder approaches.
