arXiv Paper Benchmarks Model-Agnostic Keyframe Selection for Long Video MLLMs
A new arXiv preprint evaluates keyframe selection techniques that can be plugged into existing multimodal large language models without modifying them. The work targets the constraint that MLLMs cannot ingest every frame of a long video due to visual-token and compute limits, and compares the main families of approaches proposed to address this. The study positions keyframe selection as a model-agnostic add-on for improving long-video understanding.
