1. Generation and Comprehension of Unambiguous Object Descriptions (2015 · 1,388 citations)
   The paper studies referring expressions: phrases that single out exactly one object in a photo. It treats two linked tasks. Generation means producing such a phrase for a highlighted region. Comprehension means picking the correct region from a set of candidate boxes, given a phrase. The authors argue that this…
2. VideoBERT: A Joint Model for Video and Language Representation Learning (2019 · 1,345 citations)
   Most self-supervised video methods learn low-level cues such as textures or motion lasting under a second.
