VSI-SUPER-Recall is a benchmark for testing long-horizon spatial observation and recall in arbitrarily long videos. It evaluates whether models can remember and recall the order in which unusual objects appeared across extended video sequences.

Overview

VSI-SUPER-Recall challenges models to:

• Track object appearances across long videos (10-240 minutes)
• Recall the temporal order of inserted objects
• Maintain spatial memory over extended periods

This benchmark is part of VSI-Super, which also includes VSI-SUPER-Count.

Quick Start

from datasets import load_dataset

# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("nyu-visionx/VSI-SUPER-Recall", split="test")

# Access a sample
sample = dataset[0]
print(sample)

Dataset Structure

Each sample contains:

{
    "video_path": "10mins/00000000.mp4",
    "question": "These are frames of a video.\nWhich of the following correctly represents the order in which the Pikachu appeared in the video?",
    "options": [
        "A. Trash can, Bed, Chair, Basket",
        "B. Trash can, Bed, Basket, Chair",
        "C. Bed, Chair, Basket, Trash can",
        "D. Bed, Chair, Trash can, Basket"
    ],
    "answer": "A",              # Correct option letter
    "type": "10mins"            # Video duration
}

Key points:

• 300 samples total (60 per video duration)
• Video durations: 10, 30, 60, 120, 240 minutes
• Videos downsampled to 1 frame per second
• Multiple choice format with 4 options
• Questions ask about the order of appearance of inserted objects

Dataset Details

• Total samples: 300
• Video durations: 10mins (60), 30mins (60), 60mins (60), 120mins (60), 240mins (60)
• Question format: Multiple choice about object appearance order
• Frame rate: 1 FPS (downsampled)
