Dense video captioning is a task of localizing interesting events from an untrimmed video and producing textual description (captions) for each localized event. Most of the previous works in dense video captioning are solely based on visual…
Important gains have recently been obtained in object detection by using training objectives that focus on {\em hard negative} examples, i.e., negative examples that are currently rated as positive or ambiguous by the detector. These…
This thesis presents an innovative approach to automate video thumbnail selection for traditional broadcast content. Our methodology establishes stringent criteria for diverse, representative, and aesthetically pleasing thumbnails,…
The annotation of video tampering dataset is a boring task that takes a lot of manpower and financial resources. At present, there is no published literature which is capable to improve the annotation efficiency of forged videos. We…
We propose a method to detect individualized highlights for users on given target videos based on their preferred highlight clips marked on previous videos they have watched. Our method explicitly leverages the contents of both the…
Models based on self-attention mechanisms have been successful in analyzing temporal data and have been widely used in the natural language domain. We propose a new model architecture for video face representation and recognition based on a…
We propose a novel algorithm for weakly supervised semantic segmentation based on image-level class labels only. In weakly supervised setting, it is commonly observed that trained model overly focuses on discriminative parts rather than the…
This paper presents an improved framework for character-aware audio-visual subtitling in TV shows. Our approach integrates speech recognition, speaker diarisation, and character recognition, utilising both audio and visual cues. This…
Balancing computational efficiency with recognition accuracy is one of the major challenges in real-world video-based face recognition. A significant design decision for any such system is whether to process and use all possible faces…
The success of Computer Vision (CV) relies heavily on manually annotated data. However, it is prohibitively expensive to annotate images in key domains such as healthcare, where data labeling requires significant domain expertise and cannot…
The task of the emotion recognition in the wild (EmotiW) Challenge is to assign one of seven emotions to short video clips extracted from Hollywood style movies. The videos depict acted-out emotions under realistic conditions with a large…
Huge amounts of digital videos are being produced and broadcast every day, leading to giant media archives. Effective techniques are needed to make such data accessible further. Automatic meta-data labelling of broadcast media is an…
Visual content has become the primary source of information, as evident in the billions of images and videos, shared and uploaded on the Internet every single day. This has led to an increase in alterations in images and videos to make them…
This paper presents a novel approach to synthesize automatically age-progressed facial images in video sequences using Deep Reinforcement Learning. The proposed method models facial structures and the longitudinal face-aging process of…
This work strives for the classification and localization of human actions in videos, without the need for any labeled video training examples. Where existing work relies on transferring global attribute or object information from seen to…
The cost of drawing object bounding boxes (i.e. labeling) for millions of images is prohibitively high. For instance, labeling pedestrians in a regular urban image could take 35 seconds on average. Active learning aims to reduce the cost of…
We tackle the problem of discovering novel classes in an image collection given labelled examples of other classes. This setting is similar to semi-supervised learning, but significantly harder because there are no labelled examples for the…
Supervised machine learning methods for image analysis require large amounts of labelled training data to solve computer vision problems. The recent rise of deep learning algorithms for recognising image content has led to the emergence of…
The task of searching certain people in videos has seen increasing potential in real-world applications, such as video organization and editing. Most existing approaches are devised to work in an offline manner, where identities can only be…
We present a novel method for detecting speaking persons in video, by extracting facial landmarks with a neural network and analysing these landmarks statistically over time
