Prerequisites

0. Clone this repo

1. Prepare datasets

Charades-STA : Download feature files for Charades-STA dataset.

VGG features and labels: Download Charades-STA-VGG,

SF+C features: We followed Moment-DETR to use Charades-STA-SF+C.

QVHighlights : Download official feature files for QVHighlights dataset from Moment-DETR.

SF+C features: Download moment_detr_features.tar.gz.

tar -xf path/to/moment_detr_features.tar.gz

TACoS : Prepare features for TACoS dataset.

C3D features: : According to VSLNet, convert the pre-trained C3D visual features from TALL.

ActivityNet : Prepare features for ActivityNet dataset.

C3D features: : According to VSLNet, convert the pre-trained C3D visual features from ActivityNet.
