Multi-Modal Domain Adaptation Across Video Scenes for Temporal Video Grounding

Temporal Video Grounding (TVG) aims to localize the temporal boundary of a specific segment in an untrimmed video based on a given language query. Since datasets in this domain are often gathered from limited video scenes, models tend to overfit to scene-specific factors, which leads to suboptimal performance when encountering new scenes in real-world applications. In a new scene, the fine-grained annotations are often insufficient due to the expensive labor cost, while the coarse-grained video-query pairs are easier to obtain. Thus, to address this issue and enhance model performance on new scenes, we explore the TVG task in an unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) setting across scenes for the first time, where the video-query pairs in the source scene (domain) are labeled with temporal boundaries, while those in the target scene are not. Under the UDA setting, we introduce a novel Adversarial Multi-modal Domain Adaptation (AMDA) method to adaptively adjust the model's scene-related knowledge by incorporating insights from the target data. Specifically, we tackle the domain gap by utilizing domain discriminators, which help identify valuable scene-related features effective across both domains. Concurrently, we mitigate the semantic gap between different modalities by aligning video-query pairs with related semantics. Furthermore, we employ a mask-reconstruction approach to enhance the understanding of temporal semantics within a scene. Extensive experiments on Charades-STA, ActivityNet Captions, and YouCook2 demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.
