Excited to share our work on self-supervised learning in videos. Our method, temporal cycle-consistency (TCC) learning, looks for similarities across videos to learn useful representations.#CVPR2019 #computervision Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWjjeMQmt8E … Webpage: https://sites.google.com/corp/view/temporal-cycle-consistency/ …pic.twitter.com/v02Vckd7LY

For a frame in video 1, TCC finds the nearest neighbor (NN) in video 2. To go back to video 1, we find the nearest neighbor of NN in video 1. If we came back to the frame we started from, the frames are cycle-consistent. TCC minimizes this cycle-consistency error.pic.twitter.com/9dUqwI4Ao0

ML highlights from the paper: 1. Cycle-consistency loss applied directly on low dimensional embeddings (without GAN / decoder). 2. Soft-nearest neighbors to find correspondences across videos. Training method:pic.twitter.com/GnD6jw9ZSX

TCC discovers the phases of an action without additional labels. In this video, we retrieve nearest neighbors in the embedding space to frames in the reference video. In spite of many variations, TCC maps semantically similar frames to nearby points in the embedding space.pic.twitter.com/k4o4y4o6gE
