• Title: Modeling long-term interactions to enhance action recognition
• Authors: Alejandro Cartas, Petia Radeva, Mariella Dimiccoli
• Abstract summary: We propose a new approach to under-stand actions in egocentric videos that exploits the semantics of object interactions at both frame and temporal levels. We use a region-based approach that takes as input a primary region roughly corresponding to the user hands and a set of secondary regions potentially corresponding to the interacting objects. The proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art in terms of action recognition on standard benchmarks.

• Abstract: In this paper, we propose a new approach to under-stand actions in egocentric videos that exploits the semantics of object interactions at both frame and temporal levels. At the frame level, we use a region-based approach that takes as input a primary region roughly corresponding to the user hands and a set of secondary regions potentially corresponding to the interacting objects and calculates the action score through a CNN formulation. This information is then fed to a Hierarchical LongShort-Term Memory Network (HLSTM) that captures temporal dependencies between actions within and across shots. Ablation studies thoroughly validate the proposed approach, showing in particular that both levels of the HLSTM architecture contribute to performance improvement. Furthermore, quantitative comparisons show that the proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art in terms of action recognition on standard benchmarks,without relying on motion information

  We propose a novel Temporal Sequence-Aware Model (TSAM) for few-shot action recognition (FSAR) It incorporates a sequential perceiver adapter into the pre-training framework, to integrate both the spatial information and the sequential temporal dynamics into the feature embeddings. Experimental results on five FSAR datasets demonstrate that our method set a new benchmark, beating the second-best competitors with large margins.

  We argue that current fixed-sized-temporal kernels in 3 convolutional neural networks (CNNDs) can be improved to better deal with temporal variations in the input. We study how we can better handle between classes of actions, by enhancing their feature differences over different layers of the architecture. The proposed approaches are evaluated on several benchmark action recognition datasets and show competitive results.

  We propose to exploit the local correlation module to model the topological relationship between targets and their surrounding environment. Specifically, we establish dense correspondences of each spatial location and its context, and explicitly constrain the correlation volumes through self-supervised learning. Our approach demonstrates the effectiveness of correlation learning with the superior performance and obtains state-of-the-art MOTA of 76.5% and IDF1 of 73.6% on MOT17.

  We introduce a cascade architecture for a multi-stage, coarse-to-fine HOI understanding.

With our carefully-designed human-centric relation features, these two modules work collaboratively towards effective interaction understanding.
