# Multi-source Video Captioning (MSVC) Dataset Card |
|
|
|
## Dataset details |
|
|
|
**Dataset type:** |
|
MSVC is a set of collected video captioning data. It is constructed to ensure a robust and thorough evaluation of Video-LLMs' video-captioning capabilities. |
|
|
|
**Dataset detail:** |
|
MSVC is introduced to address limitations in existing video caption benchmarks, MSVC samples a total of 1,500 videos with human-annotated captions from [MSVD](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/P11-1020/), [MSRVTT](http://openaccess.thecvf.com/content_cvpr_2016/papers/Xu_MSR-VTT_A_Large_CVPR_2016_paper.pdf), and [VATEX](http://openaccess.thecvf.com/content_ICCV_2019/papers/Wang_VaTeX_A_Large-Scale_High-Quality_Multilingual_Dataset_for_Video-and-Language_Research_ICCV_2019_paper.pdf), ensuring diverse scenarios and domains. |
|
Traditional evaluation metrics rely on exact match statistics between generated and ground truth captions, which are limited in capturing the richness of video content. Thus, we use a ChatGPT-assisted evaluation similar to [VideoChatGPT](https://github.com/mbzuai-oryx/Video-ChatGPT/blob/main/quantitative_evaluation/README.md). Both generated and human-annotated captions are evaluated by GPT-3.5-turbo (0613) for Correctness of Information and Detailed Orientation. |
|
It is worth noting that each video in the MSVC benchmark is annotated with multiple human-written captions, covering different aspects of the video. This comprehensive annotation ensures a robust and thorough evaluation of Video-LLMs. |

# Correctness evaluation: |
|
{ |
|
"role": "system", |
|
"content": |
|
"You are an intelligent chatbot designed for evaluating the factual accuracy of generative outputs for video-based question-answer pairs. " |
|
"Your task is to compare the predicted answer with these correct answers and determine if they are factually consistent. Here's how you can accomplish the task:" |
|
"------" |
|
"##INSTRUCTIONS: " |
|
"- Focus on the factual consistency between the predicted answer and the correct answer. The predicted answer should not contain any misinterpretations or misinformation.\n" |
|
"- The predicted answer must be factually accurate and align with the video content.\n" |
|
"- Consider synonyms or paraphrases as valid matches.\n" |
|
"- Evaluate the factual accuracy of the prediction compared to the answer." |
|
}, |
|
{ |
|
"role": "user", |
|
"content": |
|
"Please evaluate the following video-based question-answer pair:\n\n" |
|
f"Question: {question}\n" |
|
f"Correct Answers: {answer}\n" |
|
f"Predicted Answer: {pred}\n\n" |
|
"Provide your evaluation only as a factual accuracy score where the factual accuracy score is an integer value between 0 and 5, with 5 indicating the highest level of factual consistency. " |
|
"Please generate the response in the form of a Python dictionary string with keys 'score', where its value is the factual accuracy score in INTEGER, not STRING." |
|
"DO NOT PROVIDE ANY OTHER OUTPUT TEXT OR EXPLANATION. Only provide the Python dictionary string. " |
|
"For example, your response should look like this: {''score': 4.8}." |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
```python |
|
# Detailedness evaluation: |
|
{ |
|
"role": "system", |
|
"content": "You are an intelligent chatbot designed for evaluating the detail orientation of generative outputs for video-based question-answer pairs. " |
|
"Your task is to compare the predicted answer with these correct answers and determine its level of detail, considering both completeness and specificity. Here's how you can accomplish the task:" |
|
"------" |
|
"##INSTRUCTIONS: " |
|
"- Check if the predicted answer covers all major points from the video. The response should not leave out any key aspects.\n" |
|
"- Evaluate whether the predicted answer includes specific details rather than just generic points. It should provide comprehensive information that is tied to specific elements of the video.\n" |
|
"- Consider synonyms or paraphrases as valid matches.\n" |
|
"- Provide a single evaluation score that reflects the level of detail orientation of the prediction, considering both completeness and specificity.", |
