Graph-based semi-supervised learning has proven to be an effective approach for query-focused multi-document summarization. The problem of previous semi-supervised learning is that sentences are ranked without considering the higher level…
This report describes the details of our approach for the event dense-captioning task in ActivityNet Challenge 2021. We present a semantic-aware pretraining method for dense video captioning, which empowers the learned features to recognize…
We present an efficient framework that can generate a coherent paragraph to describe a given video. Previous works on video captioning usually focus on video clips. They typically treat an entire video as a whole and generate the caption…
Dense video captioning is a challenging task that aims to localize and caption multiple events in an untrimmed video. Recent studies mainly follow the transformer-based architecture to jointly perform the two sub-tasks, i.e., event…
In semantic video segmentation the goal is to acquire consistent dense semantic labelling across image frames. To this end, recent approaches have been reliant on manually arranged operations applied on top of static semantic segmentation…
We present a novel human annotated dataset for evaluating the ability for visual-language models to generate both short and long descriptions for real-world video clips, termed DeVAn (Dense Video Annotation). The dataset contains 8.5K…
Automatically describing video content with text description is challenging but important task, which has been attracting a lot of attention in computer vision community. Previous works mainly strive for the accuracy of the generated…
Existing retrieval-augmented approaches for Dense Video Captioning (DVC) often fail to achieve accurate temporal segmentation aligned with true event boundaries, as they rely on heuristic strategies that overlook ground truth event…
Video summarisation can be posed as the task of extracting important parts of a video in order to create an informative summary of what occurred in the video. In this paper we introduce SummaryNet as a supervised learning framework for…
Text summarization aims to compress a textual document to a short summary while keeping salient information. Extractive approaches are widely used in text summarization because of their fluency and efficiency. However, most of existing…
Traditional video summarization methods generate fixed video representations regardless of user interest. Therefore such methods limit users' expectations in content search and exploration scenarios. Multi-modal video summarization is one…
We present a unified network for simultaneously generating videos and their corresponding entity segmentation and depth maps from text prompts. We utilize colormap to represent entity masks and depth maps, tightly integrating dense…
Dense video captioning aims to localize and describe important events in untrimmed videos. Existing methods mainly tackle this task by exploiting only visual features, while completely neglecting the audio track. Only a few prior works have…
Topical Segmentation poses a great role in reducing search space of the topics taught in a lecture video specially when the video metadata lacks topic wise segmentation information. This segmentation information eases user efforts of…
With the abundance of data and information in todays time, it is nearly impossible for man, or, even machine, to go through all of the data line by line. What one usually does is to try to skim through the lines and retain the absolutely…
Image captioning is an ambiguous problem, with many suitable captions for an image. To address ambiguity, beam search is the de facto method for sampling multiple captions. However, beam search is computationally expensive and known to…
Multimodal abstractive summarization for videos (MAS) requires generating a concise textual summary to describe the highlights of a video according to multimodal resources, in our case, the video content and its transcript. Inspired by the…
This paper proposes a new framework for semantic segmentation of objects in videos. We address the label inconsistency problem of deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) by exploiting the fact that videos have multiple frames; in a few…
Video captioning is the task of automatically generating a textual description of the actions in a video. Although previous work (e.g. sequence-to-sequence model) has shown promising results in abstracting a coarse description of a short…
We propose a novel supervised learning technique for summarizing videos by automatically selecting keyframes or key subshots. Casting the problem as a structured prediction problem on sequential data, our main idea is to use Long Short-Term…
