Video Classification

Video classification is the task of assigning a label or class to an entire video. Videos are expected to have only one class for each video. Video classification models take a video as input and return a prediction about which class the video belongs to.

About Video Classification

Use Cases

Video classification models can be used to categorize what a video is all about.

Activity Recognition

Video classification models are used to perform activity recognition which is useful for fitness applications. Activity recognition is also helpful for vision-impaired individuals especially when they're commuting.

Video Search

Models trained in video classification can improve user experience by organizing and categorizing video galleries on the phone or in the cloud, on multiple keywords or tags.

Inference

Below you can find code for inferring with a pre-trained video classification model.

from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline(task = "video-classification", model="nateraw/videomae-base-finetuned-ucf101-subset")
pipe("https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/transformers/basketball.avi?download=true")

#[{'score': 0.90, 'label': 'BasketballDunk'},
# {'score': 0.02, 'label': 'BalanceBeam'},

Metrics for Video Classification
accuracy
Accuracy is the proportion of correct predictions among the total number of cases processed. It can be computed with: Accuracy = (TP + TN) / (TP + TN + FP + FN) Where: TP: True positive TN: True negative FP: False positive FN: False negative
recall
Recall is the fraction of the positive examples that were correctly labeled by the model as positive. It can be computed with the equation: Recall = TP / (TP + FN) Where TP is the true positives and FN is the false negatives.
precision
Precision is the fraction of correctly labeled positive examples out of all of the examples that were labeled as positive. It is computed via the equation: Precision = TP / (TP + FP) where TP is the True positives (i.e. the examples correctly labeled as positive) and FP is the False positive examples (i.e. the examples incorrectly labeled as positive).
f1
The F1 score is the harmonic mean of the precision and recall. It can be computed with the equation: F1 = 2 * (precision * recall) / (precision + recall)
