This is the official PyTorch implementation of the paper "Temporal Context Aggregation for Video Retrieval with Contrastive Learning".
In this paper, we propose TCA (Temporal Context Aggregation for Video Retrieval), a video representation learning framework that incorporates long-range temporal information between frame-level features using the self-attention mechanism.
To train it on video retrieval datasets, we propose a supervised contrastive learning method that performs automatic hard negative mining and utilizes the memory bank mechanism to increase the capacity of negative samples.
The proposed method shows a significant performance advantage (∼17% mAP on FIVR-200K) over state-of-the-art methods with video-level features, and deliver competitive results with 22x faster inference time comparing with frame-level features.
Currently, we only tested the code compacity with the following dependencies:
- Python 3.7
- PyTorch == 1.4.0
- Torchvision == 0.5.0
- CUDA == 10.1
- Other dependencies
- Clone this repo:
git clone https://github.com/xwen99/temporal_context_aggregation.git
cd temporal_context_aggregation- Install the dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt- Please follow the instructions in the
pre-processingfolder.
