VOCAL: Video Organization and Interactive Compositional AnaLytics
Summary: VOCAL: a VDBMS for interactive organization, exploration, and cleaning of heterogeneous video corpora without requiring clean data or pretrained detectors. Supports efficient compositional spatiotemporal queries over multi-object events via optimizations that reduce manual labeling and query costs. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
