• Abstract: Motion recognition is a promising direction in computer vision, but the training of video classification models is much harder than images due to insufficient data and considerable parameters. To get around this, some works strive to explore multimodal cues from RGB-D data. Although improving motion recognition to some extent, these methods still face sub-optimal situations in the following aspects: (i) Data augmentation, i.e., the scale of the RGB-D datasets is still limited, and few efforts have been made to explore novel data augmentation strategies for videos; (ii) Optimization mechanism, i.e., the tightly space-time-entangled network structure brings more challenges to spatiotemporal information modeling; And (iii) cross-modal knowledge fusion, i.e., the high similarity between multimodal representations caused to insufficient late fusion. To alleviate these drawbacks, we propose to improve RGB-D-based motion recognition both from data and algorithm perspectives in this paper. In more detail, firstly, we introduce a novel video data augmentation method dubbed ShuffleMix, which acts as a supplement to MixUp, to provide additional temporal regularization for motion recognition. Secondly, a Unified Multimodal De-coupling and multi-stage Re-coupling framework, termed UMDR, is proposed for video representation learning. Finally, a novel cross-modal Complement Feature Catcher (CFCer) is explored to mine potential commonalities features in multimodal information as the auxiliary fusion stream, to improve the late fusion results. The seamless combination of these novel designs forms a robust spatiotemporal representation and achieves better performance than state-of-the-art methods on four public motion datasets. Specifically, UMDR achieves unprecedented improvements of +4.5% on the Chalearn IsoGD dataset. Our code is available at https://github.com/zhoubenjia/MotionRGBD-PAMI.

  We propose a flexible attention block called Channel-Variable Spatial-Temporal Attention (CVSTA) to enhance the discriminative power of spatial-temporal joints. Based on CVSTA, we construct a Multi-Dimensional Refinement Graph Convolutional Network (MDR-GCN), which can improve the discrimination among channel-, joint- and frame-level features. Furthermore, we propose a Robust Decouple Loss (RDL), which significantly boosts the effect of the CVSTA and reduces the impact of noise.
