Text-to-video generation has made remarkable advancements through diffusion models. However, Multi-Concept Video Customization (MCVC) remains a significant challenge. We identify two key challenges for this task: 1) the identity decoupling…
While streaming omni-video understanding demands continuous perception and proactive, real-time interaction, this crucial area remains largely under-explored. Current omni-modal methods are inherently designed for offline settings, limiting…
This thesis explores the central question of how to leverage temporal relations among video elements to advance video understanding. Addressing the limitations of existing methods, the work presents a five-fold contribution: (1) an…
MOOCs offer free and open access to a wide audience, but completion rates remain low, often due to a lack of personalized content. To address this issue, it is essential to predict learner performance in order to provide tailored feedback.…
Understanding the structure of complex activities in untrimmed videos is a challenging task in the area of action recognition. One problem here is that this task usually requires a large amount of hand-annotated minute- or even hour-long…
This paper presents for the first time a detailed analysis of fine-grained navigation style identification in MOOCs backed by a large number of active learners. The result shows 1) whilst the sequential style is clearly in evidence, the…
Analyzing how interrelated ideas flow within and between multiple social groups helps understand the propagation of information, ideas, and thoughts on social media. The existing dynamic text analysis work on idea flow analysis is mostly…
Chapter generation becomes practical technique for online videos nowadays. The chapter breakpoints enable users to quickly find the parts they want and get the summative annotations. However, there is no public method and dataset for this…
The aim of visualization is to support people in dealing with large and complex information structures, to make these structures more comprehensible, facilitate exploration, and enable knowledge discovery. However, users often have problems…
We propose a novel framework for target speech extraction based on semantic information, called ConceptBeam. Target speech extraction means extracting the speech of a target speaker in a mixture. Typical approaches have been exploiting…
Massive Open Online Courses are educational programs that are open and accessible to a large number of people through the internet. To facilitate learning, MOOC discussion forums exist where students and instructors communicate questions,…
Crossmodal knowledge distillation (KD) aims to enhance a unimodal student using a multimodal teacher model. In particular, when the teacher's modalities include the student's, additional complementary information can be exploited to improve…
A split-transform-merge strategy has been broadly used as an architectural constraint in convolutional neural networks for visual recognition tasks. It approximates sparsely connected networks by explicitly defining multiple branches to…
Multimodal deep learning, especially vision-language models, have gained significant traction in recent years, greatly improving performance on many downstream tasks, including content moderation and violence detection. However, standard…
High-performing vision language models still produce incorrect answers, yet their failure modes are often difficult to explain. To make model internals more accessible and enable systematic debugging, we introduce VisualScratchpad, an…
Learning text-video embeddings usually requires a dataset of video clips with manually provided captions. However, such datasets are expensive and time consuming to create and therefore difficult to obtain on a large scale. In this work, we…
Open-Vocabulary Multi-Object Tracking (OV-MOT) aims to enable approaches to track objects without being limited to a predefined set of categories. Current OV-MOT methods typically rely primarily on instance-level detection and association,…
