### Frontier Research
|
||
|
||
1. **V-Agent Multimodal Video Search.**
|
||
A groundbreaking new paper just unveiled **V-Agent, a multimodal video search system**. 🔍 This [V-Agent video search system (AI News)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.16925) fine-tunes VLMs to simultaneously grasp both visuals and audio – how cool is that? Three agents team up 💡 to handle user intent, smashing **SOTA zero-shot performance** on the MultiVENT2.0 test set. They've embedded video frames and speech-to-text into a unified space, and guess what? The model is already open-source! 🤩
|
||
|
||
2. **PhysVideoGenerator: Physics-Aware Video Generation.**
|
||
**PhysVideoGenerator** is here to make video generation more realistic! This paper teaches video generation models 🎬 to [understand physical laws (AI News)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.03665), finally fixing those awkward, unnatural object collisions. They're using **V-JEPA2** to pull out physical features and inject them right into the generation process 💡, which seriously amps up gravity and temporal consistency. It's still in the proof-of-concept stage, but the training stability is already solid. Big steps forward! 🚀
|
||
|
||
3. **ThinkRL-Edit: Reasoning-Based Image Editing.**
|
||
Say hello to **ThinkRL-Edit**, a new framework that makes image editing models 🧠 [think before they act (AI News)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.03467).
