• Abstract summary: We address the problem of language-based temporal localization of moments in untrimmed videos. Current state-of-the-art model MAC addresses it by mining activity concepts from both video and language modalities. We propose "Multi-faceted VideoMoment Localizer" (MML), an extension of MAC model by the introduction of visual object evidence.

• Abstract: We address the problem of language-based temporal localization of moments in untrimmed videos. Compared to temporal localization with fixed categories, this problem is more challenging as the language-based queries have no predefined activity classes and may also contain complex descriptions. Current state-of-the-art model MAC addresses it by mining activity concepts from both video and language modalities. This method encodes the semantic activity concepts from the verb/object pair in a language query and leverages visual activity concepts from video activity classification prediction scores. We propose "Multi-faceted VideoMoment Localizer" (MML), an extension of MAC model by the introduction of visual object evidence via object segmentation masks and video understanding features via video captioning. Furthermore, we improve language modelling in sentence embedding. We experimented on Charades-STA dataset and identified that MML outperforms MAC baseline by 4.93% and 1.70% on R@1 and R@5metrics respectively. Our code and pre-trained model are publicly available at https://github.com/madhawav/MML.

  Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities across diverse visual tasks. Current VLMs lack a fundamental cognitive ability: learning to localize objects in a scene by taking into account the context. This work is the first to explore and benchmark personalized few-shot localization for VLMs.

  Large-scale vision-language models (VLM) have shown impressive results for language-guided search applications.

We present a method to meta-personalize a pre-trained VLM, i.e., learning how to learn to personalize a VLM at test time to search in video.
