📊 Dataset Overview

This dataset includes three main components:

1. InternVideo2 Features (~3.4GB)

Pre-extracted video features using InternVideo2 encoder for four benchmark datasets:

• MSR-VTT: 10,000 videos (932MB)
• ActivityNet: 20,000 videos (1.1GB)
• DiDeMo: 10,464 videos (916MB)
• LSMDC: 1,000 movies, 118,081 clips (424MB)

Feature Details:

• Dimension: 512-d embeddings
• Format: Pickle files (.pkl) with {video_id: embedding} mappings
• Extraction: InternVideo2 (InternVL-2B) with temporal pooling

2. GRDR Model Checkpoints (~2GB)

Trained GRDR models (T5-small based) for all four datasets:

• MSR-VTT: 494MB
• ActivityNet: 498MB
• DiDeMo: 504MB
