Recent efforts in video reasoning segmentation (VRS) integrate large language models (LLMs) with perception models to localize and track objects via textual instructions, achieving barely satisfactory results in simple scenarios. However, they struggled to discriminate and deduce the objects from user queries in more real-world scenes featured by long durations, multiple objects, rapid motion, and heavy occlusions. In this work, we analyze the underlying causes of these limitations, and present ViLLa: Video reasoning segmentation with Large Language Model. Remarkably, our ViLLa manages to tackle these challenges through multiple core innovations: (1) a context synthesizer that dynamically encodes the user intent with video contexts for accurate reasoning, resolving ambiguities in complex queries, and (2) a hierarchical temporal synchronizer that disentangles multi-object interactions across complex temporal scenarios by modelling multi-object interactions at local and global temporal scales. To enable efficient processing of long videos, ViLLa incorporates (3) a key segment sampler that adaptively partitions long videos into shorter but semantically dense segments for less redundancy. What's more, to promote research in this unexplored area, we construct a VRS benchmark, VideoReasonSeg, featuring different complex scenarios. Our model also exhibits impressive state-of-the-art results on VideoReasonSeg, Ref-YouTube-VOS, Ref-DAVIS17, MeViS, and ReVOS. Both quantitative and qual...
