• Title: Interpretable Action Recognition on Hard to Classify Actions
• Authors: Anastasia Anichenko, Frank Guerin, Andrew Gilbert,
• Abstract summary: Humans recognise complex activities in video by recognising critical-temporal relations among explicitly recognised objects and parts. To mimic this we build on a model which uses positions of objects and hands, and their motions, to recognise the activity taking place. To improve this model we focussed on three of the most confused classes (for this model) and identified that the lack of 3D information was the major problem. A state-of-the-art object detection model was fine-tuned to determine the difference between "Container" and "NotContainer" in order to integrate object shape information into the existing object features.

• Abstract: We investigate a human-like interpretable model of video understanding. Humans recognise complex activities in video by recognising critical spatio-temporal relations among explicitly recognised objects and parts, for example, an object entering the aperture of a container. To mimic this we build on a model which uses positions of objects and hands, and their motions, to recognise the activity taking place. To improve this model we focussed on three of the most confused classes (for this model) and identified that the lack of 3D information was the major problem. To address this we extended our basic model by adding 3D awareness in two ways: (1) A state-of-the-art object detection model was fine-tuned to determine the difference between "Container" and "NotContainer" in order to integrate object shape information into the existing object features. (2) A state-of-the-art depth estimation model was used to extract depth values for individual objects and calculate depth relations to expand the existing relations used our interpretable model. These 3D extensions to our basic model were evaluated on a subset of three superficially similar "Putting" actions from the Something-Something-v2 dataset. The results showed that the container detector did not improve performance, but the addition of depth relations made a significant improvement to performance.

  We focus on object pose estimation. Our approach relies on three pieces of information: multiple views of the object, the camera's parameters at those viewpoints, and 3D CAD models of objects. We show that the estimated object pose results in 99.65% grasp accuracy with the ground truth grasp candidates.

  This paper shows that robustness and generalisation to novel scene objects in 3D object-aware character synthesis can be achieved by training a motion model with as few as one reference object. We leverage an implicit feature representation trained on object-only datasets, which encodes an SE(3)-equivariant descriptor field around the object. We demonstrate substantial improvements in 3D virtual character motion and interaction quality and robustness to scenarios with unseen objects.

  MegaPose is a method to estimate the 6D pose of novel objects, that is, objects unseen during training. We present a 6D pose refiner based on a render&compare strategy which can be applied to novel objects. Second, we introduce a novel approach for coarse pose estimation which leverages a network trained to classify whether the pose error between a synthetic rendering and an observed image of the same object can be corrected by the refiner.
