Intelligently reasoning about the world often requires integrating data from multiple modalities, as any individual modality may contain unreliable or incomplete information. Prior work in multimodal learning fuses input modalities only…
Audio-visual video parsing is the task of categorizing a video at the segment level with weak labels, and predicting them as audible or visible events. Recent methods for this task leverage the attention mechanism to capture the semantic…
Multi-modal hashing methods are widely used in multimedia retrieval, which can fuse multi-source data to generate binary hash code. However, the individual backbone networks have limited feature expression capabilities and are not jointly…
Feature selection is a process of choosing a subset of relevant features so that the quality of prediction models can be improved. An extensive body of work exists on information-theoretic feature selection, based on maximizing Mutual…
Our work explores the task of generating future sensor observations conditioned on the past. We are motivated by `predictive coding' concepts from neuroscience as well as robotic applications such as self-driving vehicles. Predictive video…
Retrieving events from large-scale video datasets is challenging due to complex temporal, spatial, and multimodal information. This paper presents U-CESE, our solution for the AI Challenge HCMC 2025, a Unified Clip-based Event Search Engine…
Identifying a short segment in a long video that semantically matches a text query is a challenging task that has important application potentials in language-based video search, browsing, and navigation. Typical retrieval systems respond…

The interest for video anomaly detection systems has gained traction for the past few years. The current approaches use deep learning to perform anomaly detection in videos, but this approach has multiple problems. For starters, deep…
The objective of this work is person-clustering in videos -- grouping characters according to their identity. Previous methods focus on the narrower task of face-clustering, and for the most part ignore other cues such as the person's…
Audio-visual segmentation (AVS) is an emerging task that aims to accurately segment sounding objects based on audio-visual cues. The success of AVS learning systems depends on the effectiveness of cross-modal interaction. Such a requirement…
Skeleton-based human action recognition has achieved remarkable progress in recent years. However, most existing GCN-based methods rely on short-range motion topologies, which not only struggle to capture long-range joint dependencies and…
Extending language models to video introduces two challenges: representation, where existing methods rely on lossy approximations, and long-context, where caption- or agent-based pipelines collapse video into text and lose visual fidelity.…
