Multi-Modal Cross-Domain Alignment Network for Video Moment Retrieval
Researchers have introduced a novel Multi-Modal Cross-Domain Alignment (MMCDA) network designed to improve video moment retrieval across different datasets. This approach addresses the challenge of performance degradation when models trained on one domain are applied to another, particularly when the target domain lacks annotations. The MMCDA network incorporates domain alignment, cross-modal alignment, and specific alignment modules to learn domain-invariant and semantically aligned representations, enabling effective knowledge transfer from annotated source domains to unannotated target domains.
