Abstract

Cross-modal learning of video and text plays a key role in Video Question Answering (VideoQA). In this paper, we propose a visual-text attention mechanism to utilize the Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) trained on lots of general domain language-image pairs to guide the cross-modal learning for VideoQA. Specifically, we first extract video features using a TimeSformer and text features using a BERT from the target application domain, and utilize CLIP to extract a pair of visual-text features from the general-knowledge domain through the domain-specific learning. We then propose a Cross-domain Learning to extract the attention information between visual and linguistic features across the target domain and general domain. The set of CLIP-guided visual-text features are integrated to predict the answer. The proposed method is evaluated on MSVD-QA and MSRVTTQA datasets and outperforms state-of-the-art methods.
