• Abstract summary: This report analyzes an egocentric video action detection method we used in the 2021 EPIC-KITCHENS-100 competition hosted in CVPR 2021 Workshop. The goal of our task is to locate the start time and the end time of the action in the long untrimmed video, and predict action category. We adopt sliding window strategy to generate proposals, which can better adapt to short-duration actions.

• Abstract: This technical report analyzes an egocentric video action detection method we used in the 2021 EPIC-KITCHENS-100 competition hosted in CVPR2021 Workshop. The goal of our task is to locate the start time and the end time of the action in the long untrimmed video, and predict action category. We adopt sliding window strategy to generate proposals, which can better adapt to short-duration actions. In addition, we show that classification and proposals are conflict in the same network. The separation of the two tasks boost the detection performance with high efficiency. By simply employing these strategy, we achieved 16.10\% performance on the test set of EPIC-KITCHENS-100 Action Detection challenge using a single model, surpassing the baseline method by 11.7\% in terms of average mAP.

  Existing temporal action detection (TAD) methods rely on generating an overwhelmingly large number of proposals per video. We propose a proposal-free Temporal Action detection model with Global mask (TAGS) Our core idea is to learn a global segmentation mask of each action instance jointly at the full video length.

  The main task we aim to tackle is the multi-instance semi-supervised video object segmentation across a sequence of frames. The challenges lie in the selection of the matching method to predict the result as well as to decide whether to update the target template. We propose a novel approach which utilizes reinforcement learning to make these two decisions at the same time.
