Abstract
In the video saliency prediction task, one of the key issues is the utilization of temporal contextual information of keyframes. In this paper, a deep reinforcement learning agent for video saliency prediction is proposed, designed to look around adjacent frames and adaptively generate a salient contextual window that contains the most correlated information of keyframe for saliency prediction. More specifically, an action set step by step decides whether to expand the window, meanwhile a state set and reward function evaluate the effectiveness of the current window. The deep Q-learning algorithm is followed to train the agent to learn a policy to achieve its goal. The proposed agent can be regarded as plug-and-play which is compatible with generic video saliency prediction models. Experimental results on various datasets demonstrate that our method can achieve an advanced performance.
