Revisiting Natural Language Prompts from Large Language Models for Open-Vocabulary Video Recognition

Vision-language models (VLMs) like CLIP have shown great success in image tasks, however, applying CLIP to open-vocabulary video recognition poses challenges.

Key points

  • Due to the limited text information, directly fine-tuning CLIP on video recognition datasets may lead to overfitting and hinder its generalizability.
  • In this paper, we propose P2CLIP (Prompt-guided CLIP), which aims to bridge this gap by exploring the impact of prompts across three aspects: category, video, and frame.
  • To address this issue, we design Generic-Discriminative Prompt using LLMs to obtain discriminative category embeddings with rich semantic information.
  • Then we propose a Knowledge-Guided Temporal Aggregation mechanism, which leverages the expert knowledge derived from LLMs to guide the temporal modeling of videos and encourage a better construction of the joint visual-textual feature space.
