VLG-Net leverages recent advantages in Graph Neural Networks (GCNs) and leverages a novel multi-modality graph-based fusion method for the task of natural language video grounding.

**SkipInit** is a method that aims to allow [normalization](https://paperswithcode.com/methods/category/normalization)-free training of neural networks by downscaling [residual branches](https://paperswithcode.com/method/residual-block) at initialization.  This is achieved by including a learnable scalar multiplier at the end of each residual branch, initialized to $\alpha$.

The method is motivated by theoretical findings that [batch normalization](https://paperswithcode.com/method/batch-normalization) downscales the hidden activations on the residual branch by a factor on the order of the square root of the network depth (at initialization). Therefore, as the depth of a residual network is increased, the residual blocks are increasingly dominated by the [skip connection](https://paperswithcode.com/method/residual-connection), which drives the functions computed by residual blocks closer to the identity, preserving signal propagation and ensuring well-behaved gradients. This leads to the proposed method which can achieve this property through an [initialization](https://paperswithcode.com/methods/category/initialization) strategy rather than a [normalization](https://paperswithcode.com/methods/category/normalization) strategy.
