IVIST: Interactive Video Search Tool in VBS 2020

摘要

This paper presents a new video retrieval tool, Interactive Video Search Tool (IVIST), which participates in the 2020 Video Browser Showdown (VBS). As a video retrieval tool, IVIST is equipped with proper and high-performing functionalities such as object detection, dominant-color finding, scene-text recognition and text-image retrieval. These functionalities are constructed with various deep neural networks. By adopting these functionalities, IVIST performs well in searching users' desirable videos. Furthermore, due to user-friendly user interface, IVIST is easy to use even for novice users. Although IVIST is developed to participate in VBS, we hope that it will be applied as a practical video retrieval tool in the future, dealing with actual video data on the Internet.
