Localizing moments in untrimmed videos via language queries is a new and interesting task that requires the ability to accurately ground language into video. Previous works have approached this task by processing the entire video, often more than once, to localize relevant activities. In the real world applications of this approach, such as video surveillance, efficiency is a key system requirement. In this paper, we present TripNet, an end-to-end system that uses a gated attention architecture to model fine-grained textual and visual representations in order to align text and video content. Furthermore, TripNet uses reinforcement learning to efficiently localize relevant activity clips in long videos, by learning how to intelligently skip around the video. It extracts visual features for few frames to perform activity classification. In our evaluation over Charades-STA, ActivityNet Captions and the TACoS dataset, we find that TripNet achieves high accuracy and saves processing time by only looking at 32-41% of the entire video.

We address the problem of temporal localization of repetitive activities in a video, i.e., the problem of identifying all segments of a video that contain some sort of repetitive or periodic motion. To do so, the proposed method represents a video by
the matrix of pairwise frame distances. These distances are computed on frame representations obtained with a convolutional neural network. On top of this representation, we design, implement and evaluate ReActNet, a lightweight convolutional neural network that classifies a given frame as belonging (or not) to a repetitive video segment. An important property of the employed representation is that it can handle repetitive segments of arbitrary number and duration. Furthermore, the proposed training process requires a relatively small number of annotated videos. Our method raises several of the limiting assumptions of existing approaches regarding the contents of the video and the types of the observed repetitive activities. Experimental results on recent, publicly available datasets validate our design choices, verify the generalization potential of ReActNet and demonstrate its superior performance in comparison to the current state of the art.
The state-of-the art solutions for human activity understanding from a video stream formulate the task as a spatio-temporal problem which requires joint localization of all individuals in the scene and classification of their actions or group activit
y over time. Who is interacting with whom, e.g. not everyone in a queue is interacting with each other, is often not predicted. There are scenarios where people are best to be split into sub-groups, which we call social groups, and each social group may be engaged in a different social activity. In this paper, we solve the problem of simultaneously grouping people by their social interactions, predicting their individual actions and the social activity of each social group, which we call the social task. Our main contributions are: i) we propose an end-to-end trainable framework for the social task; ii) our proposed method also sets the state-of-the-art results on two widely adopted benchmarks for the traditional group activity recognition task (assuming individuals of the scene form a single group and predicting a single group activity label for the scene); iii) we introduce new annotations on an existing group activity dataset, re-purposing it for the social task.
In this paper, we propose a methodology for early recognition of human activities from videos taken with a first-person viewpoint. Early recognition, which is also known as activity prediction, is an ability to infer an ongoing activity at its early
stage. We present an algorithm to perform recognition of activities targeted at the camera from streaming videos, making the system to predict intended activities of the interacting person and avoid harmful events before they actually happen. We introduce the novel concept of onset that efficiently summarizes pre-activity observations, and design an approach to consider event history in addition to ongoing video observation for early first-person recognition of activities. We propose to represent onset using cascade histograms of time series gradients, and we describe a novel algorithmic setup to take advantage of onset for early recognition of activities. The experimental results clearly illustrate that the proposed concept of onset enables better/earlier recognition of human activities from first-person videos.
Semantic segmentation is a crucial task for robot navigation and safety. However, current supervised methods require a large amount of pixelwise annotations to yield accurate results. Labeling is a tedious and time consuming process that has hampered
progress in low altitude UAV applications. This paper makes an important step towards automatic annotation by introducing SegProp, a novel iterative flow-based method, with a direct connection to spectral clustering in space and time, to propagate the semantic labels to frames that lack human annotations. The labels are further used in semi-supervised learning scenarios. Motivated by the lack of a large video aerial dataset, we also introduce Ruralscapes, a new dataset with high resolution (4K) images and manually-annotated dense labels every 50 frames - the largest of its kind, to the best of our knowledge. Our novel SegProp automatically annotates the remaining unlabeled 98% of frames with an accuracy exceeding 90% (F-measure), significantly outperforming other state-of-the-art label propagation methods. Moreover, when integrating other methods as modules inside SegProps iterative label propagation loop, we achieve a significant boost over the baseline labels. Finally, we test SegProp in a full semi-supervised setting: we train several state-of-the-art deep neural networks on the SegProp-automatically-labeled training frames and test them on completely novel videos. We convincingly demonstrate, every time, a significant improvement over the supervised scenario.
In this work, an automatic and simple framework for hockey ice-rink localization from broadcast videos is introduced. First, video is broken into video-shots by a hierarchical partitioning of the video frames, and thresholding based on their histogra
ms. To localize the frames on the ice-rink model, a ResNet18-based regressor is implemented and trained, which regresses to four control points on the model in a frame-by-frame fashion. This leads to the projection jittering problem in the video. To overcome this, in the inference phase, the trajectory of the control points on the ice-rink model are smoothed, for all the consecutive frames of a given video-shot, by convolving a Hann window with the achieved coordinates. Finally, the smoothed homography matrix is computed by using the direct linear transform on the four pairs of corresponding points. A hockey dataset for training and testing the regressor is gathered. The results show success of this simple and comprehensive procedure for localizing the hockey ice-rink and addressing the problem of jittering without affecting the accuracy of homography estimation.
