0. Clone this repo
1. Prepare datasets
QVHighlights : Download official feature files for QVHighlights dataset from Moment-DETR.
Download moment_detr_features.tar.gz (8GB), extract it under '../features' directory. You can change the data directory by modifying 'feat_root' in shell scripts under 'tr_detr/scripts/' directory.
tar -xf path/to/moment_detr_features.tar.gz
TVSum : Download feature files for TVSum dataset from UMT.
Download TVSum (69.1MB), and either extract it under '../features/tvsum/' directory or change 'feat_root' in TVSum shell files under 'tr_detr/scripts/tvsum/'.
2. Install dependencies. Python version 3.7 is required.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Requirements.txt also include other libraries. Will be cleaned up soon. For anaconda setup, please refer to the official Moment-DETR github.
Training with (only video) and (video + audio) can be executed by running the shell below:
bash tr_detr/scripts/train.sh
bash tr_detr/scripts/train_audio.sh
Best validation accuracy is yielded at the last epoch.
Once the model is trained, hl_val_submission.jsonl and hl_test_submission.jsonl can be yielded by running inference.sh.
bash tr_detr/scripts/inference.sh results/{direc}/model_best.ckpt 'val'
bash tr_detr/scripts/inference.sh results/{direc}/model_best.ckpt 'test'
where direc is the path to the saved checkpoint.
For more details for submission, check standalone_eval/README.md.
Training with (only video) and (video + audio) can be executed by running the shell below:
bash tr_detr/scripts/tvsum/train_tvsum.sh
bash tr_detr/scripts/tvsum/train_tvsum_audio.sh
Best results are stored in 'results_[domain_name]/best_metric.jsonl'.

abstractNote={Video moment retrieval (MR) and highlight detection (HD) based on natural language queries are two highly related tasks, which aim to obtain relevant moments within videos and highlight scores of each video clip. Recently, several methods have been devoted to building DETR-based networks to solve both MR and HD jointly. These methods simply add two separate task heads after multi-modal feature extraction and feature interaction, achieving good performance. Nevertheless, these approaches underutilize the reciprocal relationship between two tasks. In this paper, we propose a task-reciprocal transformer based on DETR (TR-DETR) that focuses on exploring the inherent reciprocity between MR and HD. Specifically, a local-global multi-modal alignment module is first built to align features from diverse modalities into a shared latent space. Subsequently, a visual feature refinement is designed to eliminate query-irrelevant information from visual features for modal interaction. Finally, a task cooperation module is constructed to refine the retrieval pipeline and the highlight score prediction process by utilizing the reciprocity between MR and HD. Comprehensive experiments on QVHighlights, Charades-STA and TVSum datasets demonstrate that TR-DETR outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods.
