StrAD: A Streaming Method and Benchmark for Audio Description Generation for Long-form Videos

Aug 12, 2026

This work addresses the limitations of existing audio description generation methods, which struggle with long-form videos and rely on manually annotated timestamps, thereby failing to meet the accessibility needs of visually impaired users at scale. The paper introduces the first streaming framework for audio description generation tailored to long videos, leveraging a sliding window mechanism to enable real-time caption insertion without ground-truth timestamps. The framework supports both fine-tuning (StrAD-FT) and zero-shot prompting with vision-language models (StrAD-Zero). Additionally, the authors construct StrAD, a diverse benchmark of long videos, to standardize full-video-level evaluation. Experiments show that the proposed method achieves a CIDEr score of 36.3 on CMD-AD—outperforming prior work by 10.0—and reaches 51.0 CIDEr on the StrAD benchmark, with a streaming task SODA score of 2.4, substantially exceeding the zero-shot baseline of 1.1.

LoopMTP: A looped transformer guided by latent multi-token prediction

Aug 04, 2026

This work addresses the tendency of existing recurrent Transformers to suffer from overthinking and computational redundancy due to the absence of cross-iteration guidance signals. To mitigate this, the authors propose integrating recurrence with multi-token prediction (MTP), aligning the number of recurrence steps with future token prediction horizons in latent space—such that the t-th recurrence step directly predicts the token t steps ahead—thereby providing dense lookahead supervision. A lightweight gating mechanism is further introduced to preserve useful information across iterations. This approach achieves, for the first time, an explicit alignment between recurrence depth and prediction horizon in latent space, significantly alleviating overthinking and enhancing inference efficiency. Experiments demonstrate up to an 8.1% relative improvement in average accuracy over non-recurrent baselines, with stable training observed even with up to 15 recurrence steps.
