• Abstract summary: Two-stage methods have dominated Human-Object Interaction (HOI) detection for several years. One-stage methods are challenging to make an appropriate trade-off on multi-task learning, i.e., object detection, and interaction classification. We propose a novel one-stage framework with disentangling human-object detection and interaction classification in a cascade manner.

• Abstract: Two-stage methods have dominated Human-Object Interaction (HOI) detection for several years. Recently, one-stage HOI detection methods have become popular. In this paper, we aim to explore the essential pros and cons of two-stage and one-stage methods. With this as the goal, we find that conventional two-stage methods mainly suffer from positioning positive interactive human-object pairs, while one-stage methods are challenging to make an appropriate trade-off on multi-task learning, i.e., object detection, and interaction classification. Therefore, a core problem is how to take the essence and discard the dregs from the conventional two types of methods. To this end, we propose a novel one-stage framework with disentangling human-object detection and interaction classification in a cascade manner. In detail, we first design a human-object pair generator based on a state-of-the-art one-stage HOI detector by removing the interaction classification module or head and then design a relatively isolated interaction classifier to classify each human-object pair. Two cascade decoders in our proposed framework can focus on one specific task, detection or interaction classification. In terms of the specific implementation, we adopt a transformer-based HOI detector as our base model. The newly introduced disentangling paradigm outperforms existing methods by a large margin, with a significant relative mAP gain of 9.32% on HICO-Det.

  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.

  Localizing people and recognizing their actions from videos is a challenging task towards high-level video understanding. Existing methods are mostly two-stage based, with one stage for person bounding box generation and the other stage for action recognition. We present a decoupled one-stage network dubbed DOAD, to improve the efficiency for-temporal action detection.

  A common problem in the task of human-object interaction (HOI) detection is that numerous HOI classes have only a small number of labeled examples. We observe that there exist natural correlations and anti-correlations among human-object interactions. We present techniques to learn these priors and leverage them for more effective training, especially on rare classes.

  We propose a novel one-stage HOI detection approach based on a new concept called interaction region for the HOI problem. Unlike previous methods, our approach concentrates on the densely sampled interaction regions across different scales for each human-object pair. In order to compensate for the detection flaws of a single interaction region, we introduce a novel voting strategy.
