Video Captioning With Attention-Based LSTM and Semantic Consistency

Gao, Lianli, Guo, Zhao, Zhang, Hanwang, Xu, Xing, Shen, Heng Tao·2017·IEEE Transactions on Multimedia

Abstract

Recent progress in using long short-term memory (LSTM) for image captioning has motivated the exploration of their applications for video captioning. By taking a video as a sequence of features, an LSTM model is trained on video-sentence pairs and learns to associate a video to a sentence. However, most existing methods compress an entire video shot or frame into a static representation, without considering attention mechanism which allows for selecting salient features. Furthermore, existing approaches usually model the translating error, but ignore the correlations between sentence semantics and visual content. To tackle these issues, we propose a novel end-to-end framework named aLSTMs, an attention-based LSTM model with semantic consistency, to transfer videos to natural sentences. This framework integrates attention mechanism with LSTM to capture salient structures of video, and explores the correlation between multimodal representations (i.e., words and visual content) for generating sentences with rich semantic content. Specifically, we first propose an attention mechanism that uses the dynamic weighted sum of local two-dimensional convolutional neural network representations. Then, an LSTM decoder takes these visual features at time t and the word-embedding feature at time t-1 to generate important words. Finally, we use multimodal embedding to map the visual and sentence features into a joint space to guarantee the semantic consistence of the sentence description and the video visual content. Experiments on the benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method using single feature can achieve competitive or even better results than the state-of-the-art baselines for video captioning in both BLEU and METEOR.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
