Moment-DETR code and QVHighlights dataset

Overview

Moment-DETR

QVHighlights: Detecting Moments and Highlights in Videos via Natural Language Queries

Jie Lei, Tamara L. Berg, Mohit Bansal

For dataset details, please check data/README.md

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  1. Clone this repo
git clone https://github.com/jayleicn/moment_detr.git
cd moment_detr
  1. Prepare feature files

Download moment_detr_features.tar.gz (8GB), extract it under project root directory:

tar -xf path/to/moment_detr_features.tar.gz
  1. Install dependencies.

This code requires Python 3.7, PyTorch, and a few other Python libraries. We recommend creating conda environment and installing all the dependencies as follows:

# create conda env
conda create --name moment_detr python=3.7
# activate env
conda actiavte moment_detr
# install pytorch with CUDA 11.0
conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio cudatoolkit=11.0 -c pytorch
# install other python packages
pip install tqdm ipython easydict tensorboard tabulate scikit-learn pandas

Training

Training can be launched by running the following command:

bash moment_detr/scripts/train.sh 

This will train Moment-DETR for 200 epochs on the QVHighlights train split, with SlowFast and Open AI CLIP features. The training is very fast, it can be done within 4 hours using a single RTX 2080Ti GPU. The checkpoints and other experiment log files will be written into results. For training under different settings, you can append additional command line flags to the command above. For example, if you want to train the model without the saliency loss (by setting the corresponding loss weight to 0):

bash moment_detr/scripts/train.sh --lw_saliency 0

For more configurable options, please checkout our config file moment_detr/config.py.

Inference

Once the model is trained, you can use the following command for inference:

bash moment_detr/scripts/inference.sh CHECKPOINT_PATH SPLIT_NAME  

where CHECKPOINT_PATH is the path to the saved checkpoint, SPLIT_NAME is the split name for inference, can be one of val and test.

Pretraining and Finetuning

Moment-DETR utilizes ASR captions for weakly supervised pretraining. To launch pretraining, run:

bash moment_detr/scripts/pretrain.sh 

This will pretrain the Moment-DETR model on the ASR captions for 100 epochs, the pretrained checkpoints and other experiment log files will be written into results. With the pretrained checkpoint, we can launch finetuning from a pretrained checkpoint PRETRAIN_CHECKPOINT_PATH as:

bash moment_detr/scripts/train.sh  --resume ${PRETRAIN_CHECKPOINT_PATH}

Note that this finetuning process is the same as standard training except that it initializes weights from a pretrained checkpoint.

Evaluation and Codalab Submission

Please check standalone_eval/README.md for details.

    Hi, I noticed that you also conduct experiments on CharadesSTA dataset. I'm wondering how you prepare the video feature in CharadesSTA dataset? Could you share the feature files you prepared?

    About the annotations

    Hi @jayleicn, thanks for your great work! I notice that in the annotation files, as shown below, the duration of a video (126s) does not match the actual duration (810s - 660s = 150s). May I ask that should I crop the original video to 126s before processing in this case?

    {
        "qid": 8737, 
        "query": "A family is playing basketball together on a green court outside.", 
        "duration": 126,

    Hi, I recently generate the test results and validation results on CodaLab as the following structure.

    --Submit.zip

    The CodaLab gave me the error IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/codalab/tmphfqu8Q/run/input/res/hl_test_submission.jsonl'

    How can I solve this problem?

  • Video feature extraction

    Video feature extraction

    Hi, thanks for your excellent work! I found that the provided video features include both clip_features and slow_fast features. When it comes to the run_on_video/run.py, the codes only extract the clip features. Is there a mistake here? Besides, could you please provide the run.py extracting both clip and slowfast features? Thank you.

  • About paper

    About paper

    hi, We think that mdetr has great potential, but we look at table 6 in the paper and find that the metics of moment retrieval on the charades-sta dataset is not much higher than that of ivg-dcl (in particular, ivg-dcl adopts C3d feature for video extractor and glove for text embedding), and your work uses clip feature + slowfast). Have you ever tested on other video grounding dataset, like activitynets?

    About dataset?

    Good job. I have read the paper and the github repository, but I still don’t understand how the features such as clip_features, clip_sub_features, clip_text_features, slowfast_features, etc. under the features folder are extracted and the details of the features extracted? Can you describe it in detail if it is convenient?

    Meaning of GT saliency scores

    Thank you for your great work and open-source code.

    I have an issue with the GT saliency scores (only localized 2-sec clips), can you please explain briefly? besides, how Predicted saliency scores (for all 2-sec clip) corresponds to the previous term?

    Thanks!

    The meaning of "tef"

    Hi, I have a question about the "tef" in vision feature:

    if self.use_tef:
        tef_st = torch.arange(0, ctx_l, 1.0) / ctx_l
        tef_ed = tef_st + 1.0 / ctx_l
        tef = torch.stack([tef_st, tef_ed], dim=1)  # (Lv, 2)
        if self.use_video:
            model_inputs["video_feat"] = torch.cat(
                [model_inputs["video_feat"], tef], dim=1)  # (Lv, Dv+2)
        else:
            model_inputs["video_feat"] = tef
    

    What does "tef" mean in the visual feature? Thanks in advance.

    Hi, thanks for your good work and released code!

    I have a question regarding the feature extractor: which setting did you adopt for the QVHighlight slowfast feature? e.g., SLOWFAST_8x8_R50.

    Thanks!
