• Abstract: There has been huge progress on video action recognition in recent years. However, many works focus on tweaking existing 2D backbones due to the reliance of ImageNet pretraining, which restrains the models from achieving higher efficiency for video recognition. In this work we introduce a simple and very efficient 3D convolutional neural network for video action recognition. The design of the building block consists of a channel-wise convolution, followed by a spatial group convolution, and finally a temporal convolution. We evaluate the performance and efficiency of our proposed network on several video action recognition datasets by directly training on the target dataset without relying on pertaining. On Something-Something-V1&V2, Kinetics-400 and Multi-Moments in Time, our network can match or even surpass the performance of other models which are several times larger. On the fine-grained action recognition dataset FineGym, we beat the previous state-of-the-art accuracy achieved with 2-stream methods by more than 5% using only RGB input.

  We present an efficient pose-driven attention-guided multimodal action recognition (EPAM-Net) for action recognition in videos. Specifically, we adapted X3D networks for both pose streams and network-temporal features from RGB videos and their skeleton sequences. Our model provides a 6.2-9.9-x reduction in FLOPs (floating-point operation, in number of multiply-adds) and a 9--9.6x reduction in the number of network parameters.

  We explore two deep learning-based approaches, namely single frame Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and convolutional Long Short-Term Memory to recognise human actions from videos. The two models were trained and evaluated on a benchmark action recognition dataset, UCF50, and another dataset that was created for the experimentation. Though both models exhibit good accuracies, the single frame CNN model outperforms the Convolutional LSTM model by having an accuracy of 99.8% with the UCF50 dataset.
