Description

Thanks for such beautiful work!
In the past, the similarity between video and text was usually calculating the similarity between each frame and text using text-image CLIP, and then take the average. If the text and video are aligned, the value calculated in this way is usually above 0.9.
However, The value calculated using ViCLIP is only about 0.3.
Could you explain the reason?

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by tracing how ViCLIP computes video-text similarity and compare the reported ~0.3 with the prior frame-wise CLIP average; done means documenting why the scales differ.
