• Abstract: The proliferation of video content on platforms like YouTube and Vimeo presents significant challenges in efficiently locating relevant information. Automatic video summarization aims to address this by extracting and presenting key content in a condensed form. This thesis explores enhancing video summarization by integrating text-based queries and conditional modeling to tailor summaries to user needs. Traditional methods often produce fixed summaries that may not align with individual requirements. To overcome this, we propose a multi-modal deep learning approach that incorporates both textual queries and visual information, fusing them at different levels of the model architecture. Evaluation metrics such as accuracy and F1-score assess the quality of the generated summaries. The thesis also investigates improving text-based query representations using contextualized word embeddings and specialized attention networks. This enhances the semantic understanding of queries, leading to better video summaries. To emulate human-like summarization, which accounts for both visual coherence and abstract factors like storyline consistency, we introduce a conditional modeling approach. This method uses multiple random variables and joint distributions to capture key summarization components, resulting in more human-like and explainable summaries. Addressing data scarcity in fully supervised learning, the thesis proposes a segment-level pseudo-labeling approach. This self-supervised method generates additional data, improving model performance even with limited human-labeled datasets. In summary, this research aims to enhance automatic video summarization by incorporating text-based queries, improving query representations, introducing conditional modeling, and addressing data scarcity, thereby creating more effective and personalized video summaries.

  The aim of video summarization is to shorten videos automatically while retaining the key information necessary to convey the overall story. Video summarization methods rely on visual factors, such as visual consecutiveness and diversity, which may not be sufficient to fully understand the content of the video. A new approach to video summarization is proposed based on insights gained from how humans create ground truth video summaries.
