• Title: Uncertainty-Aware Weakly Supervised Action Detection from Untrimmed Videos
• Authors: Anurag Arnab, Chen Sun, Arsha Nagrani, Cordelia Schmid
• Abstract summary: In this paper, we present a prohibitive-level action recognition model that is trained with only video-frame labels. Our method per person detectors have been trained on large image datasets within Multiple Instance Learning framework. We show how we can apply our method in cases where the standard Multiple Instance Learning assumption, that each bag contains at least one instance with the specified label, is invalid.

• Abstract: Despite the recent advances in video classification, progress in spatio-temporal action recognition has lagged behind. A major contributing factor has been the prohibitive cost of annotating videos frame-by-frame. In this paper, we present a spatio-temporal action recognition model that is trained with only video-level labels, which are significantly easier to annotate. Our method leverages per-frame person detectors which have been trained on large image datasets within a Multiple Instance Learning framework. We show how we can apply our method in cases where the standard Multiple Instance Learning assumption, that each bag contains at least one instance with the specified label, is invalid using a novel probabilistic variant of MIL where we estimate the uncertainty of each prediction. Furthermore, we report the first weakly-supervised results on the AVA dataset and state-of-the-art results among weakly-supervised methods on UCF101-24.

  We present an in-depth study on few-shot video classification by making three contributions. First, we perform a consistent comparative study on the existing metric-based methods to figure out their limitations in representation learning. Second, we discover that there is a high correlation between the novel action class and the ImageNet object class, which is problematic in the few-shot recognition setting. Third, we present a new benchmark with more base data to facilitate future few-shot video classification without pre-training.

  We develop a multiple instance self-training framework (MIST) to efficiently refine task-specific discriminative representations. MIST is composed of 1) a multiple instance pseudo label generator, which adapts a sparse continuous sampling strategy to produce more reliable clip-level pseudo labels, and 2) a self-guided attention boosted feature encoder. Our method performs comparably to or even better than existing supervised and weakly supervised methods, specifically obtaining a frame-level AUC 94.83% on ShanghaiTech.

  We introduce a new problem of partial face attack in DeepFake video, where only video-level labels are provided but not all the faces in the fake videos are manipulated. A sharp MIL (S-MIL) is proposed which builds direct mapping from instance embeddings to bag prediction. Experiments on FFPMS and widely used DFDC dataset verify that S-MIL is superior to other counterparts for partially attacked DeepFake video detection.
