Researchers have introduced AffectSeek, an agentic framework designed for understanding emotions in long videos based on vague user queries. This new approach tackles the challenge of identifying affective moments, predicting emotions, and generating evidence-based explanations within extended video content. To facilitate this, they also developed VQAU-Bench, a benchmark dataset that includes long videos, ambiguous affective queries, and detailed annotations for temporal localization, emotion labels, and rationales.
