• Abstract: Calisthenics is a fast-growing bodyweight discipline that consists of different categories, one of which is focused on skills. Skills in calisthenics encompass both static and dynamic elements performed by athletes. The evaluation of static skills is based on their difficulty level and the duration of the hold. Automated tools able to recognize isometric skills from a video by segmenting them to estimate their duration would be desirable to assist athletes in their training and judges during competitions. Although the video understanding literature on action recognition through body pose analysis is rich, no previous work has specifically addressed the problem of calisthenics skill temporal video segmentation. This study aims to provide an initial step towards the implementation of automated tools within the field of Calisthenics. To advance knowledge in this context, we propose a dataset of video footage of static calisthenics skills performed by athletes. Each video is annotated with a temporal segmentation which determines the extent of each skill. We hence report the results of a baseline approach to address the problem of skill temporal segmentation on the proposed dataset. The results highlight the feasibility of the proposed problem, while there is still room for improvement.

  dataset contains 454 videos of jump elements, the detected skater skeletons in each video, along with the gold labels of the start and ending frames of each jump, together as a video benchmark for figure skating. We propose air time detection, a novel motion analysis task, the goal of which is to accurately detect the duration of the air time of a jump. To verify the generalizability of the fine-grained labels, we apply the same process to other sports as cross-sports tasks but for coarse-grained task action classification.

  We propose a more challenging reformulation of temporal self-supervision as frame-level (rather than clip-level) recognition tasks. We demonstrate experimentally that our more challenging frame-level task formulations and the removal of shortcuts drastically improve the quality of features learned through temporal self-supervision.

In a sequence of stages, players first learn to control a fully articulated body to perform realistic, human-like movements. They then acquire mid-level football skills such as dribbling and shooting. Finally, they develop awareness of others and play as a team, bridging the gap between low-level motor control at a timescale of milliseconds.
