• Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are widely used for visual perception, understanding, and reasoning. However, long video processing and precise moment retrieval remain challenging due to LLMs' limited context size and coarse frame extraction. We propose the Large Language-and-Vision Assistant for Moment Retrieval (LLaVA-MR), which enables accurate moment retrieval and contextual grounding in videos using MLLMs. LLaVA-MR combines Dense Frame and Time Encoding (DFTE) for spatial-temporal feature extraction, Informative Frame Selection (IFS) for capturing brief visual and motion patterns, and Dynamic Token Compression (DTC) to manage LLM context limitations. Evaluations on benchmarks like Charades-STA and QVHighlights demonstrate that LLaVA-MR outperforms 11 state-of-the-art methods, achieving an improvement of 1.82% in R1@0.5 and 1.29% in mAP@0.5 on the QVHighlights dataset. Our implementation will be open-sourced upon acceptance.

  We present MomentSeeker, a benchmark to evaluate retrieval models' performance in handling general long-video moment retrieval tasks. It incorporates long videos of over 500 seconds on average, making it the first benchmark specialized for long-video moment retrieval. It covers a wide range of task categories (including Moment Search, Caption Alignment, Image-conditioned Moment Search, and Video-conditioned Moment Search) and diverse application scenarios. We further fine-tune an MLLM-based LVMR retriever on synthetic data, which demonstrates strong performance on our benchmark.
