• Abstract summary: Human-object interaction (HOI) detection aims at detecting human-object pairs and predicting their interactions. We propose three prompts with VLM to generate human-centric visual cues within an image from multiple perspectives of humans. We develop a transformer-based multimodal fusion module with multitower architecture to integrate visual cue features into the instance and interaction decoders.

• Abstract: Human-object interaction (HOI) detection aims at detecting human-object pairs and predicting their interactions. However, the complexity of human behavior and the diverse contexts in which these interactions occur make it challenging. Intuitively, human-centric visual cues, such as the involved participants, the body language, and the surrounding environment, play crucial roles in shaping these interactions. These cues are particularly vital in interpreting unseen interactions. In this paper, we propose three prompts with VLM to generate human-centric visual cues within an image from multiple perspectives of humans. To capitalize on these rich Human-Centric Visual Cues, we propose a novel approach named HCVC for HOI detection. Particularly, we develop a transformer-based multimodal fusion module with multitower architecture to integrate visual cue features into the instance and interaction decoders. Our extensive experiments and analysis validate the efficacy of leveraging the generated human-centric visual cues for HOI detection. Notably, the experimental results indicate the superiority of the proposed model over the existing state-of-the-art methods on two widely used datasets.

  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.

  Human-object interaction (HOI) detection aims to extract interacting human-object pairs and their interaction categories from a given natural image. In this paper, we tackle HOI detection with the weakest supervision setting in the literature, using only image-level interaction labels. We first propose an approach to prune non-interacting human and object proposals to increase the quality of positive pairs within the bag, exploiting the grounding capability of the vision-language model. Second, we use a large language model to query which interactions are possible between a human and a given object category, in order to force the model not to put emphasis
