LensWalk: Agentic Video Understanding by Planning How You See in Videos
The dense, temporal nature of video presents a profound challenge for automated analysis. Despite the use of powerful Vision-Language Models, prevailing methods for video understanding are limited by the inherent disconnect between reasoning and perception: they rely on static, pre-processed information and cannot actively seek raw evidence from video as their understanding evolves. To address this, we introduce LensWalk, a flexible agentic framework that empowers a Large Language Model reasoner to control its own visual observation actively. LensWalk establishes a tight reason-plan-observe loop where the agent dynamically specifies, at each step, the temporal scope and sampling density o...
