Text-Conditioned Resampler For Long Form Video Understanding
In this paper we present a text-conditioned video resampler (TCR) module that uses a pre-trained and frozen visual encoder and large language model (LLM) to process long video sequences for a task. TCR localises relevant visual features from the video given a text condition and provides them to a LLM to generate a text response. Due to its lightweight design and use of cross-attention, TCR can process more than 100 frames at a time with plain attention and without optimised implementations. We make the following contributions: (i) we design a transformer-based sampling architecture that can process long videos conditioned on a task, together with a training method that enables it to bridge pre-trained visual and language models; (ii) we identify tasks that could benefit from longer video perception; and (iii) we empirically validate its efficacy on a wide variety of evaluation tasks including NextQA, EgoSchema, and the EGO4D-LTA challenge.

LongVU-TTT: Causal Test-Time Training for Visual Resampling in Long Video Understanding
Long-video MLLMs must model temporal change before a limited visual-token budget removes most frame evidence. We introduce LongVU-TTT, which inserts a convolutional Test-Time Training (TTT) resampler with causal fast-wei…
Lost in Space: Probing Fine-grained Spatial Understanding in Vision and Language Resamplers
An effective method for combining frozen large language models (LLM) and visual encoders involves a resampler module that creates a `visual prompt' which is provided to the LLM, along with the textual prompt. While this …
