• Abstract summary: We develop a new temporal contrastive learning framework consisting of two novel losses to improve upon existing contrastive self-supervised video representation learning methods. With the commonly used 3D-ResNet-18 architecture, we achieve 82.4% (+5.1% increase over the previous best) top-1 accuracy on UCF101 and 52.9% (+5.4% increase) on HMDB51 action classification.

• Abstract: Contrastive learning has nearly closed the gap between supervised and self-supervised learning of image representations. Existing extensions of contrastive learning to the domain of video data however do not explicitly attempt to represent the internal distinctiveness across the temporal dimension of video clips. We develop a new temporal contrastive learning framework consisting of two novel losses to improve upon existing contrastive self-supervised video representation learning methods. The first loss adds the task of discriminating between non-overlapping clips from the same video, whereas the second loss aims to discriminate between timesteps of the feature map of an input clip in order to increase the temporal diversity of the features. Temporal contrastive learning achieves significant improvement over the state-of-the-art results in downstream video understanding tasks such as action recognition, limited-label action classification, and nearest-neighbor video retrieval on video datasets across multiple 3D CNN architectures. With the commonly used 3D-ResNet-18 architecture, we achieve 82.4% (+5.1% increase over the previous best) top-1 accuracy on UCF101 and 52.9% (+5.4% increase) on HMDB51 action classification, and 56.2% (+11.7% increase) Top-1 Recall on UCF101 nearest neighbor video retrieval.

  We propose a novel replay mechanism for effective video continual learning based on individual/single frames. Under extreme memory constraints, video diversity plays a more significant role than temporal information. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance, outperforming the previous state-of-the-art by up to 21.49%.

  Self-supervised video representation learning aims at maximizing similarity between different temporal segments of one video. We propose Latent Time Navigation (LTN) to capture fine-grained motions. Our experimental analysis suggests that learning video representations by LTN consistently improves performance of action classification.

  We study self-supervised video representation learning, which is a challenging task due to 1) a lack of labels for explicit supervision and 2) unstructured and noisy visual information. Existing methods mainly use contrastive loss with video clips as the instances and learn visual representation by discriminating instances from each other. In this paper, we observe that the consistency between positive samples is the key to learn robust video representations.

  We study unsupervised video representation learning that seeks to learn both motion and appearance features from unlabeled video only. It is difficult to construct a suitable self-supervised task to well model both motion and appearance features. We propose a new way to perceive the playback speed and exploit the relative speed between two video clips as labels.

  We present a self-supervised Contrastive Video Representation Learning (CVRL) method to learn visual representations from unlabeled videos. Our representations are learned using a contrasttemporalive loss, where two augmented clips from the same short video are pulled together in the embedding space. We study what makes for good data augmentations for video self-supervised learning and find that both spatial and temporal information are crucial.
