• Authors: Fei Pan, Chunlei Xu, Jie Guo, Yanwen Guo
• Abstract summary: We propose Temporal Alignment Prediction (TAP) based on sequence similarity learning for few-shot video classification. In order to obtain the similarity of a pair of videos, we predict the alignment scores between all pairs of temporal positions in the two videos. We evaluate TAP on two video classification benchmarks including Kinetics and Something-Something V2.

• Abstract: The goal of few-shot video classification is to learn a classification model with good generalization ability when trained with only a few labeled videos. However, it is difficult to learn discriminative feature representations for videos in such a setting. In this paper, we propose Temporal Alignment Prediction (TAP) based on sequence similarity learning for few-shot video classification. In order to obtain the similarity of a pair of videos, we predict the alignment scores between all pairs of temporal positions in the two videos with the temporal alignment prediction function. Besides, the inputs to this function are also equipped with the context information in the temporal domain. We evaluate TAP on two video classification benchmarks including Kinetics and Something-Something V2. The experimental results verify the effectiveness of TAP and show its superiority over state-of-the-art methods.

  TemporalBench is a new benchmark dedicated to evaluating fine-grained temporal understanding in videos. It consists of 10K video question-answer pairs, derived from 2K high-quality human annotations detailing the temporal dynamics in video clips. Results show that state-of-the-art models like GPT-4o achieve only 38.5% question answering accuracy on TemporalBench.

• Video alignment using unsupervised learning of local and global features [0.0]
  We introduce an unsupervised method for alignment that uses global and local features of the frames. In particular, we introduce effective features for each video frame by means of three machine vision tools: person detection, pose estimation, and VGG network. The main advantage of our approach is that no training is required, which makes it applicable for any new type of action without any need to collect training samples for it.

  We propose a self-supervised pretext task, coined as Pseudo Action localization (PAL) to Unsupervisedly Pre-train feature encoders for Temporal Action localization tasks (UP-TAL) Specifically, we first randomly select temporal regions, each of which contains multiple clips, from one video as pseudo actions and then paste them onto different temporal positions of the other two videos. The pretext task is to align the features of pasted pseudo action regions from two synthetic videos and maximize the agreement between them.

  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.
