We present a new video understanding pentathlon challenge, an open competition
held in conjunction with the IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern
Recognition (CVPR) 2020. The objective of the challenge was to explore and
evaluate new methods for text-to-video retrieval-the task of searching for
content within a corpus of videos using natural language queries. This report
summarizes the results of the first edition of the challenge together with the
findings of the participants.
