TRACE: Temporal Audit and Condition-aware Evaluation of Streaming Video Understanding

Excerpt

arXiv:2609.30670v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Streaming video understanding requires models to interpret evidence as it arrives, yet current evaluations often report task scores without specifying when evidence becomes valid, how visual history is maintained, or how responses are triggered. As a result, similar scores may correspond to different workloads, failure modes, and operational behavior. We introduce TRACE (Temporal Audit and Condition-aware Evaluation), a condition-aware benchmark an
