The task of temporally grounding language queries in videos is to temporally localize the best matched video segment corresponding to a given language (sentence). It requires certain models to simultaneously perform visual and linguistic…
Video moment retrieval targets at retrieving a moment in a video for a given language query. The challenges of this task include 1) the requirement of localizing the relevant moment in an untrimmed video, and 2) bridging the semantic gap…
The goal of this work is spatio-temporal action localization in videos, using only the supervision from video-level class labels. The state-of-the-art casts this weakly-supervised action localization regime as a Multiple Instance Learning…
This paper focuses on tackling the problem of temporal language localization in videos, which aims to identify the start and end points of a moment described by a natural language sentence in an untrimmed video. However, it is non-trivial…
Video activity localisation has recently attained increasing attention due to its practical values in automatically localising the most salient visual segments corresponding to their language descriptions (sentences) from untrimmed and…
The key to successful grounding for video surveillance is to understand a semantic phrase corresponding to important actors and objects. Conventional methods ignore comprehensive contexts for the phrase or require heavy computation for…
The problem of action recognition involves locating the action in the video, both over time and spatially in the image. The dominant current approaches use supervised learning to solve this problem, and require large amounts of annotated…
Point-Level temporal action localization (PTAL) aims to localize actions in untrimmed videos with only one timestamp annotation for each action instance. Existing methods adopt the frame-level prediction paradigm to learn from the sparse…
We develop a novel framework for action localization in videos. We propose the Tube Proposal Network (TPN), which can generate generic, class-independent, video-level tubelet proposals in videos. The generated tubelet proposals can be…
We propose a Temporal Voting Network (TVNet) for action localization in untrimmed videos. This incorporates a novel Voting Evidence Module to locate temporal boundaries, more accurately, where temporal contextual evidence is accumulated to…
We propose an action parsing algorithm to parse a video sequence containing an unknown number of actions into its action segments. We argue that context information, particularly the temporal information about other actions in the video…
We address the problem of language-based temporal localization of moments in untrimmed videos. Compared to temporal localization with fixed categories, this problem is more challenging as the language-based queries have no predefined…
Temporal modeling still remains challenging for action recognition in videos. To mitigate this issue, this paper presents a new video architecture, termed as Temporal Difference Network (TDN), with a focus on capturing multi-scale temporal…
Point-supervised Temporal Action Localization (PTAL) adopts a lightly frame-annotated paradigm (\textit{i.e.}, labeling only a single frame per action instance) to train a model to effectively locate action instances within untrimmed…
Image-text matching tasks have recently attracted a lot of attention in the computer vision field. The key point of this cross-domain problem is how to accurately measure the similarity between the visual and the textual contents, which…
We address temporal localization of events in large-scale video data, in the context of the Youtube-8M Segments dataset. This emerging field within video recognition can enable applications to identify the precise time a specified event…
Generating video descriptions automatically is a challenging task that involves a complex interplay between spatio-temporal visual features and language models. Given that videos consist of spatial (frame-level) features and their temporal…
Temporal action detection aims to locate and classify actions in untrimmed videos. While recent works focus on designing powerful feature processors for pre-trained representations, they often overlook the inherent noise and redundancy…
In this notebook paper, we describe our approach in the submission to the temporal action proposal (task 3) and temporal action localization (task 4) of ActivityNet Challenge hosted at CVPR 2017. Since the accuracy in action classification…
Weakly-supervised temporal action localization aims to localize action instances in untrimmed videos with only video-level supervision. We witness that different actions record common phases, e.g., the run-up in the HighJump and LongJump.…
