Constructing Hierarchical Q&A Datasets for Video Story Understanding

Video understanding is emerging as a new paradigm for studying human-like AI. Question-and-Answering (Q&A) is used as a general benchmark to measure the level of intelligence for video understanding. While several previous studies have suggested datasets for video Q&A tasks, they did not really incorporate story-level understanding, resulting in highly-biased and lack of variance in degree of question difficulty. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical method for building Q&A datasets, i.e. hierarchical difficulty levels. We introduce three criteria for video story understanding, i.e. memory capacity, logical complexity, and DIKW (Data-Information-Knowledge-Wisdom) pyramid. We discuss how three-dimensional map constructed from these criteria can be used as a metric for evaluating the levels of intelligence relating to video story understanding.

Visualizing Semantic Structures of Sequential Data by Learning Temporal Dependencies

While conventional methods for sequential learning focus on interaction between consecutive inputs, we suggest a new method which captures composite semantic flows with variable-length dependencies. In addition, the semantic structures within given sequential data can be interpreted by visualizing temporal dependencies learned from the method. The proposed method, called Temporal Dependency Network (TDN), represents a video as a temporal graph whose node represents a frame of the video and whose edge represents the temporal dependency between two frames of a variable distance. The temporal dependency structure of semantic is discovered by learning parameterized kernels of graph convolutional methods. We evaluate the proposed method on the large-scale video dataset, Youtube-8M. By visualizing the temporal dependency structures as experimental results, we show that the suggested method can find the temporal dependency structures of video semantic.

Hadamard Product for Low-rank Bilinear Pooling

Bilinear models provide rich representations compared with linear models. They have been applied in various visual tasks, such as object recognition, segmentation, and visual question-answering, to get state-of-the-art performances taking advantage of the expanded representations. However, bilinear representations tend to be high-dimensional, limiting the applicability to computationally complex tasks. We propose low-rank bilinear pooling using Hadamard product for an efficient attention mechanism of multimodal learning. We show that our model outperforms compact bilinear pooling in visual question-answering tasks with the state-of-the-art results on the VQA dataset, having a better parsimonious property.
