Video Assistant
Video assistants are AI systems designed to enhance video understanding and interaction, primarily focusing on summarizing long videos, extracting key information, and providing context-aware assistance. Current research emphasizes the use of multimodal large language models (LLMs) and advanced convolutional neural networks (CNNs), often incorporating techniques like dynamic temporal convolution to improve the processing of long video sequences and the extraction of relevant temporal information. These advancements are improving the efficiency of tasks such as educational video comprehension, procedural instruction following, and event analysis in untrimmed videos, with implications for diverse fields including online education and practical skill acquisition.
