MOSS-Video-Preview: Toward Real-Time Video Understanding via Cross-Attention 文章

arXiv:2606.07639v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video understanding is shifting from the offline paradigm -- taking a fully recorded video as input and producing a single answer after it ends -- toward real-time interaction, in which the model perceives new frames while still replying, revises its answer as new evidence appears, and remains silent when there is nothing to say. We present MOSS-Video-Preview to validate this paradigm. Our central claim is that perception must not be blocked by generation; its natural realization is a two-channel architecture. We argue that a cross-attention backbone is better suited to real-time vision-language fusion than the prevailing decoder-only design: visual features enter through a side channel rather than joining the autoregressive sequence, so perception and generation run on separate, non-blocking pathways -- reducing the frequency of visual processing and exposing a clean channel-wise interface for independent compression.
