Detecting representative frames in videos based on human actions is quite challenging because of the combined factors of human pose in action and the background. This paper addresses this problem and formulates the key frame detection as…
Is it possible to understand the intricacies of a dynamical system not solely from its input/output pattern, but also by observing the behavior of other systems within the same class? This central question drives the study presented in this…
We study self-supervised procedure learning, which discovers key steps and their order from a set of unlabeled videos. Previous methods typically learn frame-to-frame correspondences between videos before determining key steps and their…
Video summarization creates an abridged version (i.e., a summary) that provides a quick overview of the video while retaining pertinent information. In this work, we focus on summarizing instructional videos and propose a method for…
Models for long-term point tracking are typically trained on large synthetic datasets. The performance of these models degrades in real-world videos due to different characteristics and the absence of dense ground-truth annotations.…
Most state-of-the-art point trackers are trained on synthetic data due to the difficulty of annotating real videos for this task. However, this can result in suboptimal performance due to the statistical gap between synthetic and real…
