Abstract

In this talk, I will introduce our recent works on large-scale video scene understanding. First, I will explain the major challenges for multi-scene analysis. I will introduce solutions for large-scale video semantic understanding and discuss the impact of temporal context information on the performance. Second, I will introduce an efficient video modeling method based on video data. It effectively tackles sequential video sequence and provides a feasible solution towards action understanding. Finally, I will discuss the methods to improve model efficiency when dealing with multi-modal data (such as audio, text), and demonstrate the potential multi-modal video applications in the real-world.
