• Abstract summary: Video-based person re-identification (ReID) is challenging due to the presence of various interferences in video frames. Recent approaches handle this problem using temporal aggregation strategies. We propose a novel Context Sensing Attention Network (CSA-Net), which improves both the frame feature extraction and temporal aggregation steps.

• Abstract: Video-based person re-identification (ReID) is challenging due to the presence of various interferences in video frames. Recent approaches handle this problem using temporal aggregation strategies. In this work, we propose a novel Context Sensing Attention Network (CSA-Net), which improves both the frame feature extraction and temporal aggregation steps. First, we introduce the Context Sensing Channel Attention (CSCA) module, which emphasizes responses from informative channels for each frame. These informative channels are identified with reference not only to each individual frame, but also to the content of the entire sequence. Therefore, CSCA explores both the individuality of each frame and the global context of the sequence. Second, we propose the Contrastive Feature Aggregation (CFA) module, which predicts frame weights for temporal aggregation. Here, the weight for each frame is determined in a contrastive manner: i.e., not only by the quality of each individual frame, but also by the average quality of the other frames in a sequence. Therefore, it effectively promotes the contribution of relatively good frames. Extensive experimental results on four datasets show that CSA-Net consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance.

  We propose VidF4, a novel VideoQA framework equipped with tailored frame selection strategy for effective and efficient VideoQA. We propose three frame-scoring mechanisms that consider both question relevance and inter-frame similarity to evaluate the importance of each frame for a given question on the video. The experimental results across three widely adopted benchmarks demonstrate that our model consistently outperforms existing VideoQA methods.

• Correspondence Matters for Video Referring Expression Comprehension [64.60046797561455]
  Video Referring Expression (REC) aims to localize the referent objects described in the sentence to visual regions in the video frames. Existing methods suffer from two problems: 1) inconsistent localization results across video frames; 2) confusion between the referent and contextual objects. We propose a novel Dual Correspondence Network (dubbed as DCNet) which explicitly enhances the dense associations in both the inter-frame and cross-modal manners.

IFS consistently demonstrates evident improvements on image-based 2D networks and clip-based 3D networks.

  Noisy and unrepresentative frames in automatically generated object bounding boxes from video sequences cause challenges in learning discriminative representations in video re-identification (Re-ID) Most existing methods tackle this problem by assessing the importance of video frames according to either their local part alignments or global appearance correlations separately. In this work, we explore jointly both local alignments and global correlations with further consideration of their mutual promotion/reinforcement.

SF-Net significantly improves upon state-of-the-art weakly-supervised methods in terms of both segment localization and single-frame localization.
