• Abstract: Though research has shown the complementarity of camera- and inertial-based data, datasets which offer both egocentric video and inertial-based sensor data remain scarce. In this paper, we introduce WEAR, an outdoor sports dataset for both vision- and inertial-based human activity recognition (HAR). The dataset comprises data from 18 participants performing a total of 18 different workout activities with untrimmed inertial (acceleration) and camera (egocentric video) data recorded at 10 different outside locations. Unlike previous egocentric datasets, WEAR provides a challenging prediction scenario marked by purposely introduced activity variations as well as an overall small information overlap across modalities. Benchmark results obtained using each modality separately show that each modality interestingly offers complementary strengths and weaknesses in their prediction performance. Further, in light of the recent success of temporal action localization models following the architecture design of the ActionFormer, we demonstrate their versatility by applying them in a plain fashion using vision, inertial and combined (vision + inertial) features as input. Results demonstrate both the applicability of vision-based temporal action localization models for inertial data and fusing both modalities by means of simple concatenation, with the combined approach (vision + inertial features) being able to produce the highest mean average precision and close-to-best F1-score. The dataset and code to reproduce experiments is publicly available via: https://mariusbock.github.io/wear/

  In reinforcement learning, available data of decision making is often not annotated with actions. We propose combining large but sparsely-annotated datasets from a emphtarget environment of interest with fully-annotated datasets from various other emphsource environments. We show that utilizing even one additional environment dataset of sequential labelled data during IDM pretraining gives rise to substantial improvements in generating action labels for unannotated sequences.
