Repository contains:

Training Code
Model Weights [Todo]
Fine-tuning and evaluation datasets: MSR-VTT and YouCook2

Get started

Create an environment:

conda create python=3.8 -y -n multisk
conda activate multisk 
conda install -y pytorch==1.7.0 torchvision==0.8.0 torchaudio==0.7.0 cudatoolkit=10.2 -c pytorch
pip install gensim==3.8.0 sacred==0.8.2 humanize==3.14.0 transformers==4.10.2 librosa==0.8.1 timm==0.4.12

If needed, download data.tar with features and spectrograms to fine-tune and evaluate on YouCook2 and MSR-VTT here. Extract a tar: tar -xvf data.tar

Pretraining

Downloading HowTo100M and feature extraction. Please note that HowTo100M videos require a huge storage, and features alone take up terabytes of space. Features extraction (ResNet-152,ResNeXt-101) and audio spectrogram extraction were carefully described in https://github.com/roudimit/AVLnet/blob/main/training.md.
Review configs/pretraining/resnet_tva.yaml and make sure csv, features_path, features_path_audio, and caption_path point on the correct paths. CSV file should contain one column named 'path' with a list of videos. An example of the CSV file that we used in the training can be found here (HowTo100M_1166_videopaths.txt).
Train python train.py --config configs/pretraining/resnet_tva.yaml

Using the model on your own data

If you want to use the model on your own data, please follow steps described in https://github.com/roudimit/AVLnet for features extraction and audio spectrogram extraction.
