Temporal action localization has long been researched in computer vision. Existing state-of-the-art action localization methods divide each video into multiple action units (i.e., proposals in two-stage methods and segments in one-stage…
Temporal sentence grounding aims to localize moments relevant to a language description. Recently, DETR-like approaches achieved notable progress by predicting the center and length of a target moment. However, they suffer from the issue of…
Temporal modeling is crucial for various video learning tasks. Most recent approaches employ either factorized (2D+1D) or joint (3D) spatial-temporal operations to extract temporal contexts from the input frames. While the former is more…

This paper strives for activity recognition under domain shift, for example caused by change of scenery or camera viewpoint. The leading approaches reduce the shift in activity appearance by adversarial training and self-supervised…
Video is a scalable observation of physical dynamics: it captures how objects move, how contact unfolds, and how scenes evolve under interaction -- all without requiring robot action labels. Yet translating this temporal structure into…
Temporal action localization (TAL) is a task of identifying a set of actions in a video, which involves localizing the start and end frames and classifying each action instance. Existing methods have addressed this task by using predefined…
