Video Captioning is a task of automatic captioning a video by understanding the action and event in the video which can help in the retrieval of the video efficiently through text.

Narrative Action Evaluation with Prompt-Guided Multimodal Interaction
NAE is a more challenging task because it requires both narrative flexibility and evaluation rigor.

Automatic movie narration targets at creating video-aligned plot descriptions to assist visually impaired audiences.
TrafficVLM: A Controllable Visual Language Model for Traffic Video Captioning
Traffic video description and analysis have received much attention recently due to the growing demand for efficient and reliable urban surveillance systems.
Do You Remember? Dense Video Captioning with Cross-Modal Memory Retrieval
There has been significant attention to the research on dense video captioning, which aims to automatically localize and caption all events within untrimmed video.
MA-LMM: Memory-Augmented Large Multimodal Model for Long-Term Video Understanding

However, existing LLM-based large multimodal models (e. g., Video-LLaMA, VideoChat) can only take in a limited number of frames for short video understanding.
Streaming Dense Video Captioning
An ideal model for dense video captioning -- predicting captions localized temporally in a video -- should be able to handle long input videos, predict rich, detailed textual descriptions, and be able to produce outputs before processing the entire video.
OmniVid: A Generative Framework for Universal Video Understanding
The core of video understanding tasks, such as recognition, captioning, and tracking, is to automatically detect objects or actions in a video and analyze their temporal evolution.
LVCHAT: Facilitating Long Video Comprehension
To address this issue, we propose Long Video Chat (LVChat), where Frame-Scalable Encoding (FSE) is introduced to dynamically adjust the number of embeddings in alignment with the duration of the video to ensure long videos are not overly compressed into a few embeddings.

However, this assumption is under-explored due to the poorly understood geometry of the multi-modal contrastive space, where a modality gap exists.
A Recipe for Scaling up Text-to-Video Generation with Text-free Videos
Following such a pipeline, we study the effect of doubling the scale of training set (i. e., video-only WebVid10M) with some randomly collected text-free videos and are encouraged to observe the performance improvement (FID from 9. 67 to 8. 19 and FVD from 484 to 441), demonstrating the scalability of our approach.
