In this paper, we propose a novel 3D CNN architecture that enables us to train an effective video saliency prediction model. The model is designed to capture important motion information using multiple adjacent frames. Our model performs a cubic convolution on a set of consecutive frames to extract spatio-temporal fea- tures. This enables us to predict the saliency map for any given frame using past frames. We comprehensively investigate the performance of our model with respect to state-of-the-art video saliency models. Experimental results on three large-scale datasets, DHF1K, UCF-SPORTS and DAVIS, demonstrate the competitiveness of our approach.
