We introduce a new multimodal retrieval task - TV show Retrieval (TVR), in which a short video moment has to be localized from a large video (with subtitle) corpus, given a natural language query. Different from previous moment retrieval tasks dealing with videos only, TVR requires the system to understand both the video and the associated subtitle text , making it a more realistictask. To support the study of this new task, we have collected a large-scale, high-quality dataset consisting of 108,965 queries on 21,793 videos from 6 TV shows of diverse genres, where each query is associated with a tight temporal alignment. Strict qualification and post-annotation verification tests are applied to ensure the quality of the collected data. We present several baselines and a novel Cross-modal Moment Localization (XML ) modular network for this new dataset and task . The proposed XML model surpasses all presented baselines by a large margin and with better efficiency, providing a strong starting point for future work. Extensive analysis experiments also show that incorporating both video and subtitle modules yields better performance than either alone. Lastly, we have also collected additional descriptions for each annotated moment in TVR to form a new multimodal captioning dataset with 262K captions, named the TV show Caption dataset (TVC). Here models need to jointly use the video and subtitle to generate a caption description. Both datasets are publicly available at URL
We introduce TV show Retrieval (TVR), a new multimodal retrieval dataset. TVR requires systems to understand both videos and their associated subtitle (dialogue) texts , making it more realistic. The dataset contains 109K queries collected on 21.8K videos from 6 TV shows of diverse genres, where each query is associated with a tight temporal window. The queries are also labeled with query types that indicate whether each of them is more related to video or subtitle or both, allowing for in-depth analysis of the dataset and the methods that built on top of it. Strict qualification and post-annotation verification tests are applied to ensure the quality of the collected data. Further, we present several baselines and a novel Cross-modal Moment Localization (XML ) network for multimodal moment retrieval tasks . The proposed XML model uses a late fusion design with a novel Convolutional Start-End detector (ConvSE), surpassing baselines by a large margin and with better efficiency, providing a strong starting point for future work. We have also collected additional descriptions for each annotated moment in TVR to form a new multimodal captioning dataset with 262K captions, named TV show Caption (TVC).
