Unified Moment Detection: Leveraging Synergies Between Temporal Action Detection and Moment Retrieval

The core message of this paper is to propose a unified framework, termed UniMD, that can simultaneously perform Temporal Action Detection (TAD) and Moment Retrieval (MR) tasks by exploiting the potential synergies between them. The authors demonstrate that task fusion learning, through pre-training and co-training approaches, can enhance the performance of both TAD and MR tasks.
