• Title: Motion Guided Attention Fusion to Recognize Interactions from Videos
• Authors: Tae Soo Kim, Jonathan Jones, Gregory D. Hager
• Abstract summary: We present a dual-pathway approach for recognizing fine-grained interactions from videos. We fuse the bottom-up features in the motion pathway with features captured from object detections to learn the temporal aspects of an action. We show that our approach can generalize across appearance effectively and recognize actions where an actor interacts with previously unseen objects.

• Abstract: We present a dual-pathway approach for recognizing fine-grained interactions from videos. We build on the success of prior dual-stream approaches, but make a distinction between the static and dynamic representations of objects and their interactions explicit by introducing separate motion and object detection pathways. Then, using our new Motion-Guided Attention Fusion module, we fuse the bottom-up features in the motion pathway with features captured from object detections to learn the temporal aspects of an action. We show that our approach can generalize across appearance effectively and recognize actions where an actor interacts with previously unseen objects. We validate our approach using the compositional action recognition task from the Something-Something-v2 dataset where we outperform existing state-of-the-art methods. We also show that our method can generalize well to real world tasks by showing state-of-the-art performance on recognizing humans assembling various IKEA furniture on the IKEA-ASM dataset.

  Human-Object Interaction (HOI) detection is a core task for human-centric image understanding. Recent one-stage methods adopt a transformer decoder to collect image-wide cues that are useful for interaction prediction. Traditional two-stage methods benefit significantly from their ability to compose interaction features in a disentangled and explainable manner.

Our joint selector module re-weights the joint information to select the most discriminative joints for the task. We show large improvements over the current state-of-the-art joint-based approaches on JHMDB, HMDB, Charades, AVA action recognition datasets.
