Video Language Transformer

Video Language Transformers (VLTs) aim to bridge the gap between visual and textual information in videos, enabling tasks like video question answering and text-to-video retrieval. Current research focuses on improving VLT architectures, particularly through end-to-end training with masked visual modeling techniques and incorporating object-level information to enhance semantic alignment. These advancements lead to more accurate and efficient video understanding, with significant implications for applications ranging from content search and summarization to assistive technologies for the visually impaired.
