• Abstract summary: We propose Oryx, a unified multimodal architecture for the spatial-temporal understanding of images, videos, and 3D scenes. Oryx offers an on-demand solution to seamlessly and efficiently process visual inputs with arbitrary spatial sizes and temporal lengths. Design features enable Oryx to accommodate extremely long visual contexts, such as videos, with lower resolution and high compression.

• Abstract: Visual data comes in various forms, ranging from small icons of just a few pixels to long videos spanning hours. Existing multi-modal LLMs usually standardize these diverse visual inputs to a fixed resolution for visual encoders and yield similar numbers of tokens for LLMs. This approach is non-optimal for multimodal understanding and inefficient for processing inputs with long and short visual contents. To solve the problem, we propose Oryx, a unified multimodal architecture for the spatial-temporal understanding of images, videos, and multi-view 3D scenes. Oryx offers an on-demand solution to seamlessly and efficiently process visual inputs with arbitrary spatial sizes and temporal lengths through two core innovations: 1) a pre-trained OryxViT model that can encode images at any resolution into LLM-friendly visual representations; 2) a dynamic compressor module that supports 1x to 16x compression on visual tokens by request. These design features enable Oryx to accommodate extremely long visual contexts, such as videos, with lower resolution and high compression while maintaining high recognition precision for tasks like document understanding with native resolution and no compression. Beyond the architectural improvements, enhanced data curation and specialized training on long-context retrieval and spatial-aware data help Oryx achieve strong capabilities in image, video, and 3D multimodal understanding simultaneously.

  VideoGLaMM is a new model for fine-grained pixel-level grounding in videos based on user-provided textual inputs. The architecture is trained to synchronize both spatial and temporal elements of video content with textual instructions. Experimental results show that our model consistently outperforms existing approaches across all three tasks.

  We introduce Coarse Correspondences, a simple lightweight method that enhances MLLMs' spatial-temporal reasoning with 2D images as input. Our method uses a lightweight tracking model to identify primary object correspondences between frames in a video or across different image viewpoints. We demonstrate that this simple training-free approach brings substantial gains to GPT4-V/O consistently on four benchmarks.

  We build on the common paradigm of transferring large-scale, image--text models to video via shallow temporal fusion. We expose two limitations to the approach: (1) decreased spatial capabilities, likely due to poor video--language alignment in standard video datasets, and (2) higher memory consumption, bottlenecking the number of frames that can be processed.
