VideoHarness-RSI: Recursive Harness Self-Improvement for Long-Video Understanding with Frozen Vision-Language Models

Long-video understanding depends not only on the capability of a vision-language model (VLM), but also on how its limited context is constructed from a much longer video. Existing systems typically introduce hand-designed sampling, retrieval, memory, or agentic control strategies, making the context-construction program itself difficult to study as an independent optimization target. We introduce VideoHarness-RSI, a controlled framework that recursively searches executable context constructors around a frozen VLM while keeping the answering model and interface fixed. We study this baseline under complementary weak- and strong-initialization regimes. From a weak uniform constructor, recursive search progressively discovers more structured context-construction programs; from a stronger AKS harness, the same process further advances an already competitive hand-crafted frontier. The resulting harness retains its advantage under a matched cumulative visual-token control and transfers directly to additional long-video benchmarks without further search. Together, these results establish executable context construction as a distinct optimization layer and provide an auditable baseline for studying harness discovery, transfer, and efficiency around frozen VLMs.

MMLDSum-LLM: Multimodal Long-Document Summarization with Visual-Alignment and Keyword-Aware

Multimodal long documents are core carriers of professional knowledge, where critical evidence is sparsely distributed across paragraphs and modalities. This easily causes key information omission and cross-modal hallucinations in summarization by multimodal LLMs. These issues stem from attention drift in long-range dependency modeling and gaps in inter-modal alignment. To address this, we introduce MMLDSum-Bench, a high-quality benchmark for multimodal long-document summarization, covering multiple domains, context-length scales, and visual-textual modality distributions. We further propose MMLDSum-LLM, a reproducible two-stage training framework that combines supervised fine-tuning with visual-alignment weighted loss and keyword-aware weighted loss, followed by GRPO with a multi-objective reward (keyword coverage, image-text alignment, ROUGE, and length control). Extensive experiments on MMLDSum-Bench, comparing against leading closed-source and open-source multimodal models under a unified evaluation protocol - including LLM-as-a-judge scoring, atomic-claim precision/recall, image-text alignment (ITA), and ROUGE - demonstrate that our approach significantly improves key-information coverage and cross-modal consistency.
