Prompting-MammAlps: Fine-Grained Text-to-Video Retrieval for Camera-Trap Data

arXiv:2607.09876v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automatically retrieving videos from large camera-trap datasets remains challenging. Text-to-Video retrieval (TVR) methods based on large video-language models (VLMs) have potential to retrieve events of interest by describing them with simple text queries. However, current methods often lack spatiotemporal understanding and do not generalize well to ecological data. In this work, we introduce Prompting-MammAlps, the first camera-trap TVR benchmark...
