This repository contains the code for the WACV 2019 paper, MAC: Mining Activity Concepts for Language-based Temporal Localization. arXiv
- Python 2.7
- Tensorflow 1.0 or higher
- others
The code is for Charades-STA dataset.
After cloning this repo, please donwload:
ref_info contains Charades-STA annotations, semantic activity concepts, checkpoints and others. After downloading ref_info.tar, untar it and move the folder to the root/ directory of this repo.
Please also change the visual feature and visual activity concepts directories in the main.py.
For the paper results on Charades-STA dataset, run
python main.py --is_only_test True \
--checkpoint_path ./ref_info/charades_sta_wacv_2019_paper_ACL_k_results/trained_model.ckpt-10000 \
--test_name paper_results
You will get similar results listed in the row "ACL-K" of the following table.
| Model | R@1,IoU=0.7 | R@1,IoU=0.5 | R@5,IoU=0.7 | R@5,IoU=0.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CTRL | 7.15 | 21.42 | 26.91 | 59.11 |
| ACL-K | 12.20 | 30.48 | 35.13 | 64.84 |
To train the model from scratch, run
python main.py
The results and checkpoints will appear in root/results_history/ and root/trained_save/, respectively.
