Multi-View Region Adaptive Multi-temporal DMM and RGB Action Recognition
Human action recognition remains an important yet challenging task. This work
proposes a novel action recognition system. It uses a novel Multiple View
Region Adaptive Multi-resolution in time Depth Motion Map (MV-RAMDMM)
formulation combined with appearance information. Multiple stream 3D
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are trained on the different views and
time resolutions of the region adaptive Depth Motion Maps. Multiple views are
synthesised to enhance the view invariance. The region adaptive weights, based
on localised motion, accentuate and differentiate parts of actions possessing
faster motion. Dedicated 3D CNN streams for multi-time resolution appearance
information (RGB) are also included. These help to identify and differentiate
between small object interactions. A pre-trained 3D-CNN is used here with
fine-tuning for each stream along with multiple class Support Vector Machines
(SVM)s. Average score fusion is used on the output. The developed approach is
capable of recognising both human action and human-object interaction. Three
public domain datasets including: MSR 3D Action,Northwestern UCLA multi-view
actions and MSR 3D daily activity are used to evaluate the proposed solution.
The experimental results demonstrate the robustness of this approach compared
with state-of-the-art algorithms.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figures, 13 tables. Submitte
Spatio-Temporal Action Detection with Cascade Proposal and Location Anticipation
In this work, we address the problem of spatio-temporal action detection in
temporally untrimmed videos. It is an important and challenging task as finding
accurate human actions in both temporal and spatial space is important for
analyzing large-scale video data. To tackle this problem, we propose a cascade
proposal and location anticipation (CPLA) model for frame-level action
detection. There are several salient points of our model: (1) a cascade region
proposal network (casRPN) is adopted for action proposal generation and shows
better localization accuracy compared with single region proposal network
(RPN); (2) action spatio-temporal consistencies are exploited via a location
anticipation network (LAN) and thus frame-level action detection is not
conducted independently. Frame-level detections are then linked by solving an
linking score maximization problem, and temporally trimmed into spatio-temporal
action tubes. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our model on the challenging
UCF101 and LIRIS-HARL datasets, both achieving state-of-the-art performance.Comment: Accepted at BMVC 2017 (oral
