New method uses loss trajectories to find video annotation errors

Researchers have developed a new method called Cumulative Sample Loss (CSL) to detect annotation errors in videos. This technique analyzes the loss trajectories of frames across different training checkpoints to identify persistent disagreements between annotations and the learned visual-temporal structure of the video. Experiments on EgoPER and Cholec80 datasets showed that CSL significantly outperforms existing methods, achieving up to a 4.2-point AUC improvement on EgoPER and high AUC scores for detecting both semantic mislabeling and temporal disordering on Cholec80.

    Loss Knows Best: Detecting Annotation Errors in Videos via Loss Trajectories

    arXiv:2602.15154v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliable video understanding requires high-quality video datasets that can provide both precise semantic labels and temporally consistent annotations. Detecting annotation errors in densely labeled videos is challenging be…
