• Abstract summary: Temporal action detection (TAD) involves the localization and classification of action instances within untrimmed videos. We present ZEETAD, featuring two modules: dual-localization and zero-shot proposal classification. We enhance discriminative capability on unseen classes by minimally updating the frozen CLIP encoder with lightweight adapters.

• Abstract: Temporal action detection (TAD) involves the localization and classification of action instances within untrimmed videos. While standard TAD follows fully supervised learning with closed-set setting on large training data, recent zero-shot TAD methods showcase the promising open-set setting by leveraging large-scale contrastive visual-language (ViL) pretrained models. However, existing zero-shot TAD methods have limitations on how to properly construct the strong relationship between two interdependent tasks of localization and classification and adapt ViL model to video understanding. In this work, we present ZEETAD, featuring two modules: dual-localization and zero-shot proposal classification. The former is a Transformer-based module that detects action events while selectively collecting crucial semantic embeddings for later recognition. The latter one, CLIP-based module, generates semantic embeddings from text and frame inputs for each temporal unit. Additionally, we enhance discriminative capability on unseen classes by minimally updating the frozen CLIP encoder with lightweight adapters. Extensive experiments on THUMOS14 and ActivityNet-1.3 datasets demonstrate our approach's superior performance in zero-shot TAD and effective knowledge transfer from ViL models to unseen action categories.

  We propose a simple yet effective Multi-modal Spatio-supervised (MSTA) to improve the alignment between representations in the text and vision branches. We evaluate the effectiveness of our approach across four tasks: zero-shot transfer, few-shot learning, base-to-valiant, and fully-language learning.

  Continual learning (CL) ability is vital for deploying large language models (LLMs) in the dynamic world. Existing methods devise the learning module to acquire task-specific knowledge with parameter-efficient tuning (PET) block and the selection module to pick out the corresponding one for the testing input. We propose a novel Shared Attention Framework (SAPT) to align the PET learning and selection via the Shared Attentive Learning & Selection module.

  Weakly-supervised action localization aims to recognize and localize action instancese in untrimmed videos with only video-level labels. Most existing models rely on multiple instance learning(MIL), where predictions of unlabeled instances are supervised by classifying labeled bags. We propose a novel attention-based hierarchically-structured latent model to learn the temporal variations of feature semantics.

  This paper argues that learning by contextually comparing sequence-to-sequence distinctions offers an essential inductive bias in weakly-supervised action localization. Under a differentiable dynamic programming formulation, two complementary contrastive objectives are designed, including Fine-grained Sequence Distance (FSD) contrasting and Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) contrasting. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on two popular benchmarks.
