Specific video identification via joint learning of latent semantic concept, scene and temporal structure

In this paper, based on three typical characteristics of specific videos, i.e., the theme, scene and temporal structure, a novel data-driven identification architecture for the specific video is proposed. To be concrete, at the frame-level, semantic features and scene features from two independent Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are extracted. At the video-level, Vector of Locally Aggregated Descriptors (VLAD) is firstly adopted to encode spatial representation, and then multiple-layer Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks are introduced to represent temporal information. Additionally, a large-scale specific video dataset (SVD) is built for evaluation. The experimental results show that our method obtain impressive 98% mAP. Moreover, in order to validate generalization capability of proposed architecture, extensive experiments on two public datasets, Columbia Consumer Videos (CCV) and Unstructured Social Activity Attribute (USAA), are conducted. Comparison results indicate that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods on USAA, and achieves comparable results on CCV.
