[2023/11/27] We have updated a new version of VITATECS which is generated using ChatGPT. The previous version generated by OPT-175B has been moved to data_opt folder.

Data

This repo contains 6 jsonl files under data folder, each of which corresponds to an aspect of temporal concepts (Direction, Intensity, Sequence, Localization, Compositionality, Type).

Each line of the jsonl file is a json object, which contains the following fields:

src_dataset: the name of the source dataset (VATEX or MSRVTT)
video_name: the name of the video in the source dataset
caption: the original caption of the video
counterfactual: the generated counterfactual description of the video
aspect: the aspect of temporal concepts that is modified

Example (indented for better presentation):

{
    "src_dataset": "VATEX", 
    "video_name": "i0ccSYMl0vo_000027_000037.mp4", 
    "caption": "A woman is placing a waxing strip on a man's leg.", 
    "counterfactual": "A woman is removing a waxing strip from a man's leg.",
    "aspect": "Direction"
}
