• Abstract: We present a new architecture for human action forecasting from videos. A temporal recurrent encoder captures temporal information of input videos while a self-attention model is used to attend on relevant feature dimensions of the input space. To handle temporal variations in observed video data, a feature masking techniques is employed. We classify observed actions accurately using an auxiliary classifier which helps to understand what has happened so far. Then the decoder generates actions for the future based on the output of the recurrent encoder and the self-attention model. Experimentally, we validate each component of our architecture where we see that the impact of self-attention to identify relevant feature dimensions, temporal masking, and observed auxiliary classifier. We evaluate our method on two standard action forecasting benchmarks and obtain state-of-the-art results.

  Video Anomaly Detection (VAD) aims to identify abnormalities within a specific context and timeframe. Recent deep learning-based VAD models have shown promising results by generating high-resolution frames. We propose a self-supervised learning approach for VAD through an inter-patch relationship prediction task.

  We introduce an appearance-based refinement method that leverages temporal consistency in video streams to correct inaccurate flow-based proposals. Our approach involves a sequence-level selection mechanism that identifies accurate flow-predicted masks as exemplars. Its performance is evaluated on multiple video segmentation benchmarks, including DAVIS, YouTube, SegTrackv2, and FBMS-59.

  We argue that current fixed-sized-temporal kernels in 3 convolutional neural networks (CNNDs) can be improved to better deal with temporal variations in the input. We study how we can better handle between classes of actions, by enhancing their feature differences over different layers of the architecture. The proposed approaches are evaluated on several benchmark action recognition datasets and show competitive results.

• Composable Augmentation Encoding for Video Representation Learning [94.2358972764708]
  We focus on contrastive methods for self-supervised video representation learning. A common paradigm in contrastive learning is to construct positive pairs by sampling different data views for the same instance, with different data instances as negatives. We propose an 'augmentation aware' contrastive learning framework, where we explicitly provide a sequence of augmentation parameterisations. We show that our method encodes valuable information about specified spatial or temporal augmentation, and in doing so also achieve state-of-the-art performance on a number of video benchmarks.

• Representation Learning for Sequence Data with Deep Autoencoding Predictive Components [96.42805872177067]
  We propose a self-supervised representation learning method for sequence data, based on the intuition that useful representations of sequence data should exhibit a simple structure in the latent space. We encourage this latent structure by maximizing an estimate of predictive information of latent feature sequences, which is the mutual information between past and future windows at each time step. We demonstrate that our method recovers the latent space of noisy dynamical systems, extracts predictive features for forecasting tasks, and improves automatic speech recognition when used to pretrain the encoder on large amounts of unlabeled data.
