  • Publication number: 20250124708
    Abstract: Provided is an efficient approach to establish a foundational video-text model for tasks including open-vocabulary video classification, text-to-video retrieval, video captioning and video question-answering. Some example implementations include a model which can be referred to as VideoCoCa. Example implementations reuse a pretrained image-text contrastive captioner (CoCa) model and adapt it to video-text tasks with little or minimal extra training. While previous works adapt image-text models with various cross-frame fusion modules (for example, cross-frame attention layer or perceiver resampler) and finetune the modified architecture on video-text data, aspects of the present disclosure leverage findings that the generative attentional pooling and contrastive attentional pooling layers in the image-text CoCa design are instantly adaptable to “flattened frame embeddings”, yielding a strong zero-shot transfer baseline for many video-text tasks.
