TF-PRVR: Training-Free Partially Relevant Video Retrieval

Key points

• Despite recent progress, existing PRVR methods suffer from two key limitations: a fixed video decomposition scheme that causes semantic dilution, and source-domain overfitting induced by task-specific training.1
• In this paper, we propose TF-PRVR, the first training-free framework for PRVR.1
• TF-PRVR leverages frozen vision-language features to construct video-specific hierarchical representations.1
• Built on these segments, TF-PRVR constructs a unified multi-scale graph and propagates query relevance across temporally and semantically related nodes.1

  Partially Relevant Video Retrieval (PRVR) aims to retrieve untrimmed videos containing moments relevant to a given text query.

  Despite recent progress, existing PRVR methods suffer from two key limitations: a fixed video decomposition scheme that causes semantic dilution, and source-domain overfitting induced by task-specific training.
