RewardTLG: Learning to Temporally Language Grounding from Flexible Reward

Zeng YaWen, Keyu Pan, Ning Han · 2023

Given a textual sentence provided by a user, the Temporal Language Grounding (TLG) task is defined as the process of finding a semantically relevant video moment or clip from an untrimmed video. In recent years, localization-based TLG methods have been explored, which adopt reinforcement learning to locate a clip from the video. However, these methods are not stable enough due to the stochastic exploration mechanism of reinforcement learning, which is sensitive to the reward. Therefore, providing a more flexible and reasonable reward has become a focus of attention for both academia and industry.
