• Abstract: In this paper, we tackle the problem of egocentric action anticipation, i.e., predicting what actions the camera wearer will perform in the near future and which objects they will interact with. Specifically, we contribute Rolling-Unrolling LSTM, a learning architecture to anticipate actions from egocentric videos. The method is based on three components: 1) an architecture comprised of two LSTMs to model the sub-tasks of summarizing the past and inferring the future, 2) a Sequence Completion Pre-Training technique which encourages the LSTMs to focus on the different sub-tasks, and 3) a Modality ATTention (MATT) mechanism to efficiently fuse multi-modal predictions performed by processing RGB frames, optical flow fields and object-based features. The proposed approach is validated on EPIC-Kitchens, EGTEA Gaze+ and ActivityNet. The experiments show that the proposed architecture is state-of-the-art in the domain of egocentric videos, achieving top performances in the 2019 EPIC-Kitchens egocentric action anticipation challenge. The approach also achieves competitive performance on ActivityNet with respect to methods not based on unsupervised pre-training and generalizes to the tasks of early action recognition and action recognition. To encourage research on this challenging topic, we made our code, trained models, and pre-extracted features available at our web page: http://iplab.dmi.unict.it/rulstm.

  Short-term object interaction anticipation is an important task in egocentric video analysis. Our proposed method, SOIA-DOD, effectively decomposes it into 1) detecting active object and 2) classifying interaction and predicting their timing. Our method first detects all potential active objects in the last frame of egocentric video by fine-tuning a pre-trained YOLOv9.

  This paper presents an overview and comparative analysis of our systems designed for the following two tracks in SAPIEN ManiSkill Challenge 2021: No Interaction Track. The No Interaction track targets for learning policies from pre-collected demonstration trajectories. In this track, we design a Heuristic Rule-based Method (HRM) to trigger high-quality object manipulation by decomposing the task into a series of sub-tasks. For each sub-task, the simple rule-based controlling strategies are adopted to predict actions that can be applied to robotic arms.
