The paper proposes a system for efficient video frame retrieval, addressing the lack of long-term temporal reasoning in current foundation models like VideoLLaMA and ViCLIP. The authors argue that decoupling per-frame perception from temporal reasoning is crucial for effective scene identification. They leverage vision-language models for semantic understanding and employ state machines and temporal logic formulae to reason about long-term event evolution, achieving a 9-15% F1 score improvement on complex event identification tasks in datasets like Waymo and NuScenes.

This paper helps solve the problem of extracting meaningful frames from videos. It’s trying to make video processing better by separating two important parts: understanding what’s happening in each frame, and thinking about how those events are connected over time. The idea is that if we can do these things separately, we’ll get more accurate results.
