## Abstract (arXiv)

In the task of dense video captioning of Soccernet dataset, we propose to generate a video caption of each soccer action and locate the timestamp of the caption. Firstly, we apply Blip as our video caption framework to generate video captions. Then we locate the timestamp by using (1) multi-size sliding windows (2) temporal proposal generation and (3) proposal classification.
