    Description:
    We introduce LifeQA, a benchmark dataset for video question answering focusing on daily real-life situations. Current video question-answering datasets consist of movies and TV shows. However, it is well-known that these visual domains do not represent our day-to-day lives. Movies and TV shows, for example, benefit from professional camera movements, clean editing, crisp audio recordings, and scripted dialog between professional actors. While these domains provide a large amount of data for training models, their properties make them unsuitable for testing real-life question-answering systems. Our dataset, by contrast, consists of video clips that represent only real-life scenarios. We collect 275 such video clips and over 2.3k multiple-choice questions. In this paper, we analyze the challenging but realistic aspects of LifeQA and apply several state-of-the-art video question-answering models to provide benchmarks for future research.
