• Authors: Hoang-Quan Nguyen, Thanh-Dat Truong, Khoa Luu,
• Abstract summary: Action recognition has become one of the popular research topics in computer vision. We propose a multi-view attention consistency method that computes the similarity between two attentions from two different views of the action videos. Our approach applies the idea of Neural Radiance Field to implicitly render the features from novel views when training on single-view datasets.

• Abstract: Action recognition has become one of the popular research topics in computer vision. There are various methods based on Convolutional Networks and self-attention mechanisms as Transformers to solve both spatial and temporal dimensions problems of action recognition tasks that achieve competitive performances. However, these methods lack a guarantee of the correctness of the action subject that the models give attention to, i.e., how to ensure an action recognition model focuses on the proper action subject to make a reasonable action prediction. In this paper, we propose a multi-view attention consistency method that computes the similarity between two attentions from two different views of the action videos using Directed Gromov-Wasserstein Discrepancy. Furthermore, our approach applies the idea of Neural Radiance Field to implicitly render the features from novel views when training on single-view datasets. Therefore, the contributions in this work are three-fold. Firstly, we introduce the multi-view attention consistency to solve the problem of reasonable prediction in action recognition. Secondly, we define a new metric for multi-view consistent attention using Directed Gromov-Wasserstein Discrepancy. Thirdly, we built an action recognition model based on Video Transformers and Neural Radiance Fields. Compared to the recent action recognition methods, the proposed approach achieves state-of-the-art results on three large-scale datasets, i.e., Jester, Something-Something V2, and Kinetics-400.

  We argue that current fixed-sized-temporal kernels in 3 convolutional neural networks (CNNDs) can be improved to better deal with temporal variations in the input. We study how we can better handle between classes of actions, by enhancing their feature differences over different layers of the architecture. The proposed approaches are evaluated on several benchmark action recognition datasets and show competitive results.

  Fine-grained action recognition is attracting increasing attention due to the emerging demand of specific action understanding in real-world applications. We propose a few-shot fine-grained action recognition problem, aiming to recognize novel fine-grained actions with only few samples given for each class. Although progress has been made in coarse-grained actions, existing few-shot recognition methods encounter two issues handling fine-grained actions.
