Improved optimization strategies for deep Multi-Task Networks

no code implementations21 Sep 2021 Lucas Pascal, Pietro Michiardi, Xavier Bost, Benoit Huet, Maria A. Zuluaga

In Multi-Task Learning (MTL), it is a common practice to train multi-task networks by optimizing an objective function, which is a weighted average of the task-specific objective functions.

Remembering Winter Was Coming: Character-Oriented Video Summaries of TV Series

no code implementations5 Sep 2019 Xavier Bost, Serigne Gueye, Vincent Labatut, Martha Larson, Georges Linarès, Damien Malinas, Raphaël Roth

In this paper, we tackle plot modeling by considering the social network of interactions between the characters involved in the narrative: substantial, durable changes in a major character's social environment suggest a new development relevant for the summary.

Extraction and Analysis of Fictional Character Networks: A Survey

1 code implementation5 Jul 2019 Vincent Labatut, Xavier Bost

We first describe the extraction process in a generic way, and explain how its constituting steps are implemented in practice, depending on the medium of the narrative, the goal of the network analysis, and other factors.

Multiple topic identification in telephone conversations

no code implementations21 Dec 2018 Xavier Bost, Marc El Bèze, Renato de Mori

Furthermore, using the theme skeleton of a conversation from which thematic densities are derived, it will be possible to extract components of an automatic conversation report to be used for improving the service performance.

Audiovisual speaker diarization of TV series

no code implementations18 Dec 2018 Xavier Bost, Georges Linarès, Serigne Gueye

Speaker diarization may be difficult to achieve when applied to narrative films, where speakers usually talk in adverse acoustic conditions: background music, sound effects, wide variations in intonation may hide the inter-speaker variability and make audio-based speaker diarization approaches error prone.

D{é}tection de locuteurs dans les s{é}ries TV

no code implementations18 Dec 2018 Xavier Bost, Georges Linares

Speaker diarization of audio streams turns out to be particularly challenging when applied to fictional films, where many characters talk in various acoustic conditions (background music, sound effects, variations in intonation...).

Constrained speaker diarization of TV series based on visual patterns

no code implementations18 Dec 2018 Xavier Bost, Georges Linares

Speaker diarization, usually denoted as the ''who spoke when'' task, turns out to be particularly challenging when applied to fictional films, where many characters talk in various acoustic conditions (background music, sound effects...).
