Problem ?

▹ Slow for inference/training▹ This is NOT a sequential problem▹ Needs lots of data for training▹ How about very long videos ?

But surprisingly good results !

Our approach9

Traditional pooling

▹ Bag-of-visual-words [Sivic and Zisserman, 2003][Csurka et al., 2004]

▹ VLAD [Jégou et al., 2010]

▹ Fisher Vector [Perronnin et al., 2007]
