Enhancing video captioning with contextual anchor-guided semantic modeling
摘要
Video captioning aims to generate coherent and semantically accurate descriptions for input videos. Despite recent advances, challenges remain in modeling temporal scene evolution and capturing fine-grained contextual details. We propose the Contextual Anchor Semantic Enhanced (CASE) framework, incorporating temporal scene understanding and dynamic feature aggregation to enhance global semantic modeling. Our Contextual Anchor-Guided Encoder captures temporal dependencies, while the Frame-level Global Aggregator dynamically integrates motion and appearance cues. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance, delivering consistent improvements across most evaluation metrics on both MSVD and MSR-VTT benchmarks.
