FastBench: Can Streaming VLMs Perceive High-Dynamic Real-World Streams?

Streaming Video Large Language Models (VLMs) enable continuous video understanding, yet existing benchmarks focus on low-dynamic scenarios.

Key points

  • Under bounded context budgets, models must balance temporal history, spatial resolution, and temporal granularity; sparse sampling at 1--2 FPS misses fast events.
  • We introduce FastBench to evaluate high-dynamic perception in real-world video streams.
  • We also present ProactiveFrame, a training-free baseline that adjusts incoming frame rates through text tokens.
  • FastBench provides a testbed for high-dynamic streaming video understanding.
