Inhaltsangabe:
- Video understanding in multimodal large language models requires selecting informative frames from long, redundant videos under limited visual-token budgets. Existing methods often rely on uniform sampling, point-wise relevance scoring, chunk-wise selection, or agentic exploration, which either miss global dependencies or introduce substantial overhead. We propose LDDR (Linear DPP-Based Dynamic Resolution), a training-free, plug-and-play, and budget-aware video frame sampling framework. LDDR performs query-aware Determinantal Point Process (DPP) frame selection in a task-conditioned feature space, achieving a 3x runtime speedup over standard DPP baselines. It further introduces a Group DPP importance metric to guide frame retention and dynamic resolution allocation, assigning more tokens to informative, non-redundant frames while downscaling or pruning less useful ones. Across four video benchmarks spanning short-, medium-, and long-range videos, LDDR consistently outperforms the next-best baselines, achieving gains of 2.5 points under budget-constrained settings and 1.6 points in high-budget scenarios. These improvements are consistently observed across multiple MLLM backbones, including both open- and closed-source models. Qualitative analysis confirms that relevant frames are selected and allocated a higher budget, facilitating improved video understanding.
