In this paper we address the problem of automatically discovering atomic actions in unsupervised manner from instructional videos. Instructional videos contain complex activities and are a rich source of information for intelligent agents, such as, autonomous robots or virtual assistants, which can, for example, automatically `read the steps from an instructional video and execute them. However, videos are rarely annotated with atomic activities, their boundaries or duration. We present an unsupervised approach to learn atomic actions of structured human tasks from a variety of instructional videos. We propose a sequential stochastic autoregressive model for temporal segmentation of videos, which learns to represent and discover the sequential relationship between different atomic actions of the task, and which provides automatic and unsupervised self-labeling for videos. Our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art unsupervised methods with large margins. We will open source the code.

In this paper we address the problem of automatically discovering atomic actions in unsupervised manner from instructional videos, which are rarely annotated with atomic actions. We present an unsupervised approach to learn atomic actions of structur ed human tasks from a variety of instructional videos based on a sequential stochastic autoregressive model for temporal segmentation of videos.

Narrated instructional videos often show and describe manipulations of similar objects, e.g., repairing a particular model of a car or laptop. In this work we aim to reconstruct such objects and to localize associated narrations in 3D. Contrary to th e standard scenario of instance-level 3D reconstruction, where identical objects or scenes are present in all views, objects in different instructional videos may have large appearance variations given varying conditions a
Current methods for learning visually grounded language from videos often rely on text annotation, such as human generated captions or machine generated automatic speech recognition (ASR) transcripts. In this work, we introduce the Audio-Video Langua ge Network (AVLnet), a self-supervised network that learns a shared audio-visual embedding space directly from raw video inputs. To circumvent the need for text annotation, we learn audio-visual representations from randomly segmented video clips and their raw audio waveforms. We train AVLnet on HowTo100M, a large corpus of publicly available instructional videos, and evaluate on image retrieval and video retrieval tasks, achieving state-of-the-art performance. We perform analysis of AVLnets learned representations, showing our model utilizes speech and natural sounds to learn audio-visual concepts. Further, we propose a tri-modal model that jointly processes raw audio, video, and text captions from videos to learn a multi-modal semantic embedding space useful for text-video retrieval. Our code, data, and trained models will be released at avlnet.csail.mit.edu
Standard methods for video recognition use large CNNs designed to capture spatio-temporal data. However, training these models requires a large amount of labeled training data, containing a wide variety of actions, scenes, settings and camera viewpoi nts. In this paper, we show that current convolutional neural network models are unable to recognize actions from camera viewpoints not present in their training data (i.e., unseen view action recognition). To address this, we develop approaches based on 3D representations and introduce a new geometric convolutional layer that can learn viewpoint invariant representations. Further, we introduce a new, challenging dataset for unseen view recognition and show the approaches ability to learn viewpoint invariant representations.
Every moment counts in action recognition. A comprehensive understanding of human activity in video requires labeling every frame according to the actions occurring, placing multiple labels densely over a video sequence. To study this problem we exte nd the existing THUMOS dataset and introduce MultiTHUMOS, a new dataset of dense labels over unconstrained internet videos. Modeling multiple, dense labels benefits from temporal relations within and across classes. We define a novel variant of long short-term memory (LSTM) deep networks for modeling these temporal relations via multiple input and output connections. We show that this model improves action labeling accuracy and further enables deeper understanding tasks ranging from structured retrieval to action prediction.
