In this paper we address the challenging problem of complex event recognition by using low-level events. In this problem, each complex event is captured by a long video in which several low-level events happen. The dataset contains several videos and due to the large number of videos and complexity of the events, the available annotation for the low-level events is very noisy which makes the detection task even more challenging. To tackle these problems we model the joint relationship between the low-level events in a graph where we consider a node for each low-level event and whenever there is a correlation between two low-level events the graph has an edge between the corresponding nodes. In addition, for decreasing the effect of weak and/or irrelevant low-level event detectors we consider the presence/absence of low-level events as hidden variables and learn a discriminative model by using latent SVM formulation. Using our learned model for the complex event recognition, we can also apply it for improving the detection of the low-level events in video clips which enables us to discover a conceptual description of the video. Thus our model can do complex event recognition and explain a video in terms of low-level events in a single framework. We have evaluated our proposed method over the most challenging multimedia event detection dataset. The experimental results reveals that the proposed method performs well compared to the baseline method. Further, our results of conceptual description of video shows that our model is learned quite well to handle the noisy annotation and surpass the low-level event detectors which are directly trained on the raw features. |
