- ItemClassification of important segments in educational videos using multimodal features(Aachen, Germany : RWTH Aachen, 2020) Ghauri, Junaid Ahmed; Hakimov, Sherzod; Ewerth, Ralph; Conrad, Stefan; Tiddi, IlariaVideos are a commonly-used type of content in learning during Web search. Many e-learning platforms provide quality content, but sometimes educational videos are long and cover many topics. Humans are good in extracting important sec-tions from videos, but it remains a significant challenge for computers. In this paper, we address the problem of assigning importance scores to video segments, that is how much information they contain with respect to the overall topic of an educational video. We present an annotation tool and a new dataset of annotated educational videos collected from popular online learning platforms. Moreover, we propose a multimodal neural architecture that utilizes state-of-the-art audio, visual and textual features. Our experiments investigate the impact of visual and temporal information, as well as the combination of multimodal features on importance prediction.
