From Traditional to Modern : Domain Adaptation for Action Classification in Short Social Video Clips
Short internet video clips like vines present a significantly wild
distribution compared to traditional video datasets. In this paper, we focus on
the problem of unsupervised action classification in wild vines using
traditional labeled datasets. To this end, we use a data augmentation based
simple domain adaptation strategy. We utilise semantic word2vec space as a
common subspace to embed video features from both, labeled source domain and
unlablled target domain. Our method incrementally augments the labeled source
with target samples and iteratively modifies the embedding function to bring
the source and target distributions together. Additionally, we utilise a
multi-modal representation that incorporates noisy semantic information
available in form of hash-tags. We show the effectiveness of this simple
adaptation technique on a test set of vines and achieve notable improvements in
performance.Comment: 9 pages, GCPR, 201
