Mvgan Maximizing Time-Lag Aware Canonical Correlation for Baseball Highlight Generation

摘要

This paper presents multi-view unsupervised generative adversarial network maximizing time-lag aware canonical correlation (Mv-GAN) for baseball highlight generation. MvGAN has the following two contributions. First, MvGAN utilizes textual, visual and audio features calculated from tweets and videos as multi-view features. MvGAN which adopts these multi-view features is the effective work for highlight generation of baseball videos. Second, since there is a temporal difference between posted tweets and the corresponding events, MvGAN introduces a novel feature embedding scheme considering a time-lag between textual features and other features. Specifically, the proposed method newly derives the time-lag aware canonical correlation maximization of these multi-view features. This is the biggest contribution of this paper. Furthermore, since MvGAN is an unsupervised method for highlight generation, a large amount of training data with annotation is not needed. Thus, the proposed method has high applicability to the real world.
