Abstract
VideoKR presents a large-scale video reasoning dataset and benchmark designed to enhance knowledge-intensive video understanding through expert-domain content and human-in-the-loop example generation.
We introduce VideoKR, the firstlarge-scale training corpusspecifically designed to strengthen knowledge- and reasoning-intensive video understanding. It comprises 315Kvideo reasoningexamples over 145K newly collected, CC-licensed, expert-domain videos. We develop ahuman-in-the-loop,skill-oriented example generationpipeline that targets progressively deepervideo reasoningcapabilities while ensuring the difficulty, diversity, and reliability of both the examples and theirCoT rationales. We also curate VideoKR-Eval, a newexpert-annotated benchmarkwhere questions require genuine video understanding and knowledge-intensive reasoning rather than textual shortcuts. Our experiments show that, under a standard SFTrightarrowGRPO pipeline, models post-trained on VideoKR outperform priorpost-training approacheson knowledge-intensivevideo reasoningwhile remaining competitive on generalvideo reasoning, highlighting data design as a key driver of progress invideo reasoning. We further conduct comprehensive ablations to isolate the contributions of VideoKR, providing actionable insights for future work.
