Title:VLX-VR: An Agentic-Aware Video Reasoning Model

Abstract:Real-world video understanding requires integrating visual, audio, textual, and temporal evidence distributed across a video. Yet many pipelines use a fixed video context and single-pass inference, limiting adaptive evidence acquisition when observations are incomplete, ambiguous, or conflicting. We present VLX-VR, an agentic-aware video reasoning model trained within a video reasoning framework defined by a Think--Memory--Observation loop. At each step, VLX-VR determines the needed evidence, invokes read_memory or write_memory, incorporates the returned Observation, and decides whether to continue or produce the task output. We train VLX-VR with multimodal data, including videos and agent trajectories, using reinforcement learning to learn evidence acquisition, memory use, and termination. On MINERVA, VLX-VR achieves state-of-the-art performance among the models included in our comparison, with 78.79% accuracy. Under the original three duration groups, its accuracies are 76.70%, 78.73%, and 80.92%, with a cross-duration accuracy variance of 2.97~$\mathrm{pp}^2$. On correctly answered samples, 96.20% of VLX-VR's reasoning traces are consistent with the MINERVA reference reasoning traces and the evidence described by them, while approximately 75.80% of all evaluated samples satisfy both answer correctness and this evidence-grounded trace criterion. These results show strong performance and broadly stable behavior across durations, while counting, state changes, causal reasoning, and spatial perception remain challenging.
