Codebase for CVPR2020 A Local-to-Global Approach to Multi-modal Movie Scene Segmentation

Introduction

From a video to segmented scenes. Basically, two steps are needed, including holistic features extraction and temporal scene segmentation.

A single-stage temporal scene segmentation is also provided in the demo. This is going to be an easy-to-use tool for plot/story understanding with scene as a semantic unit. Currently, it only supports image input.

😬 The scene segmentation dataset is prompted to MovieNet project with 318 movies together with a easy-to-use toolkit. It is encouraged to use in the future.

Features

• Basic video processing tools are provided including shot detection and its parallel version.
• Holistic semantic video feature extractors including place, audio, human, action, speech are planned to be included if you wish and leave a looking forward message in the issue. Place and audio are supported now in the pre. Full version is located at movienet-tools.
• All-in-one scene segmentation tool with all multi-modal multi-semantic elements.

Notice

😅 Since some enthusiastic researchers are requesting the codes but we plan to organize the codebase in an easy-to-use fashion, e.g. movienet-tools, we release an on-going version here.

Installation

Please refer to INSTALL.md for installation and dataset preparation. Pretrained models and dataset are also explanined here.

Get Started

🥳 Please see GETTING_STARTED.md for the basic usage.
