The increase in the availability of online videos has transformed the way we access information and knowledge. A growing number of individuals now prefer instructional videos as they offer a series of step-by-step procedures to accomplish…
Accurate and efficient Video Quality Assessment (VQA) has long been a key research challenge. Current mainstream VQA methods typically improve performance by pretraining on large-scale classification datasets (e.g., ImageNet, Kinetics-400),…
In this paper, we introduce a new task, spoken video grounding (SVG), which aims to localize the desired video fragments from spoken language descriptions. Compared with using text, employing audio requires the model to directly exploit the…
Video captioning (VC) is a fast-moving, cross-disciplinary area of research that bridges work in the fields of computer vision, natural language processing (NLP), linguistics, and human-computer interaction. In essence, VC involves…
Video corpus moment retrieval (VCMR) is the task to retrieve the most relevant video moment from a large video corpus using a natural language query. For narrative videos, e.g., dramas or movies, the holistic understanding of temporal…
The video visual relation detection (VidVRD) task is to identify objects and their relationships in videos, which is challenging due to the dynamic content, high annotation costs, and long-tailed distribution of relations. Visual language…
Understanding verbs is crucial to modelling how people and objects interact with each other and the environment through space and time. Recently, state-of-the-art video-language models based on CLIP have been shown to have limited verb…
We tackle the task of video moment retrieval (VMR), which aims to localize a specific moment in a video according to a textual query. Existing methods primarily model the matching relationship between query and moment by complex cross-modal…
Many methods have been developed to help people find the video contents they want efficiently. However, there are still some unsolved problems in this area. For example, given a query video and a reference video, how to accurately localize…
Visual Question Answering (VQA) is an emerging area of interest for researches, being a recent problem in natural language processing and image prediction. In this area, an algorithm needs to answer questions about certain images. As of the…
The correlation between the vision and text is essential for video moment retrieval (VMR), however, existing methods heavily rely on separate pre-training feature extractors for visual and textual understanding. Without sufficient temporal…
Online courses have significantly lowered the barrier to accessing education, yet the varying content quality of these videos poses challenges. In this work, we focus on the task of automatically evaluating the quality of video course…
We propose SCVRL, a novel contrastive-based framework for self-supervised learning for videos. Differently from previous contrast learning based methods that mostly focus on learning visual semantics (e.g., CVRL), SCVRL is capable of…
Visual and linguistic pre-training aims to learn vision and language representations together, which can be transferred to visual-linguistic downstream tasks. However, there exists semantic confusion between language and vision during the…
Video Correlation Learning (VCL), which aims to analyze the relationships between videos, has been widely studied and applied in various general video tasks. However, applying VCL to instructional videos is still quite challenging due to…
Recently, video summarization has been proposed as a method to help video exploration. However, traditional video summarization models only generate a fixed video summary which is usually independent of user-specific needs and hence limits…
Video text-based visual question answering (Video TextVQA) is a practical task that aims to answer questions by jointly reasoning textual and visual information in a given video. Inspired by the development of TextVQA in image domain,…
Recent methods for visual question answering rely on large-scale annotated datasets. Manual annotation of questions and answers for videos, however, is tedious, expensive and prevents scalability. In this work, we propose to avoid manual…
We present a new pre-training method, Multimodal Inverse Cloze Task, for Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering about named Entities (KVQAE). KVQAE is a recently introduced task that consists in answering questions about named entities…
Long-form video understanding requires designing approaches that are able to temporally localize activities or language. End-to-end training for such tasks is limited by the compute device memory constraints and lack of temporal annotations…
