MHD aims to localize all moments and predict clip-wise saliency scores simultaneously. Despite progress made by existing DETR-based methods, we observe that these methods coarsely fuse features from different modalities, which weakens the temporal intra-modal context and results in insufficient cross-modal interaction. To address this issue, we propose MH-DETR (Moment and Highlight Detection Transformer) tailored for MHD. Specifically, we introduce a simple yet efficient pooling operator within the uni-modal encoder to capture global intra-modal context. Moreover, to obtain temporally aligned cross-modal features, we design a plug-and-play cross-modal interaction module between the encoder and decoder, seamlessly integrating visual and textual features. Comprehensive experiments on QVHighlights, Charades-STA, Activity-Net, and TVSum datasets show that MH-DETR outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods, demonstrating its effectiveness and superiority.
