1. **[Grounding Action Descriptions in Videos](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/regneri-2013-grounding-action-descriptions-videos/)** *(2013 · 535 citations)* Text-only distributional models describe word meaning incompletely, and earlier multimodal work grounded semantics only in still images.
2. **[Visual Writing Prompts: Character-Grounded Story Generation with Curated Image Sequences](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/hong-2023-visual-writing-prompts-character-grounded/)** *(2023 · 47 citations)* Visual story generation models are often trained on image sequences such as VIST's Flickr albums. These sequences tend to lack a real plot, and the people in them change from picture to picture, so the stories written for them are weak training data. The authors introduce the notion of "visual tellability": a good…
