• Abstract: Recent attempts mainly focus on learning deep representations for each video individually under the episodic meta-learning regime and then performing temporal alignment to match query and support videos. However, they still suffer from two drawbacks: (i) learning individual features without considering the entire task may result in limited representation capability, and (ii) existing alignment strategies are sensitive to noises and misaligned instances. To handle the two limitations, we propose a novel Hybrid Relation guided temporal Set Matching (HyRSM++) approach for few-shot action recognition. The core idea of HyRSM++ is to integrate all videos within the task to learn discriminative representations and involve a robust matching technique. To be specific, HyRSM++ consists of two key components, a hybrid relation module and a temporal set matching metric. Given the basic representations from the feature extractor, the hybrid relation module is introduced to fully exploit associated relations within and cross videos in an episodic task and thus can learn task-specific embeddings. Subsequently, in the temporal set matching metric, we carry out the distance measure between query and support videos from a set matching perspective and design a Bi-MHM to improve the resilience to misaligned instances. In addition, we explicitly exploit the temporal coherence in videos to regularize the matching process. Furthermore, we extend the proposed HyRSM++ to deal with the more challenging semi-supervised few-shot action recognition and unsupervised few-shot action recognition tasks. Experimental results on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance under various few-shot settings.

  Video Visual Relation Detection (VidVRD) focuses on understanding how entities over time and space in videos. Traditional methods for VidVRD, challenged by its complexity, typically split the task into two parts: one for identifying what relation are present and another for determining their temporal boundaries. We propose VrdONE, a streamlined yet efficacious one-stage model for VidVRD.

  Video moment retrieval (MR) and highlight detection (HD) based on natural language queries are two highly related tasks. Several methods have been devoted to building DETR-based networks to solve both MR and HD jointly. We propose a task-reciprocal transformer based on DETR (TR-DETR) that focuses on exploring the inherent reciprocity between MR and HD.

  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.
