Action Recognition

881 papers with code • 49 benchmarks • 105 datasets

Action Recognition is a computer vision task that involves recognizing human actions in videos or images. The goal is to classify and categorize the actions being performed in the video or image into a predefined set of action classes.

In the video domain, it is an open question whether training an action classification network on a sufficiently large dataset, will give a similar boost in performance when applied to a different temporal task or dataset. The challenges of building video datasets has meant that most popular benchmarks for action recognition are small, having on the order of 10k videos.

Please note some benchmarks may be located in the Action Classification or Video Classification tasks, e.g. Kinetics-400.

Robustness of these techniques, however, remains a concern, particularly in the face of adversarial attacks that have been proven to deceive state-of-the-art deep neural networks in many domains.

Simultaneous Detection and Interaction Reasoning for Object-Centric Action Recognition

no code yet • 18 Apr 2024

Existing methods usually adopt a two-stage pipeline, where object proposals are first detected using a pretrained detector, and then are fed to an action recognition model for extracting video features and learning the object relations for action recognition.

Leveraging Temporal Contextualization for Video Action Recognition

no code yet • 15 Apr 2024

We propose Temporal Contextualization (TC), a novel layer-wise temporal information infusion mechanism for video that extracts core information from each frame, interconnects relevant information across the video to summarize into context tokens, and ultimately leverages the context tokens during the feature encoding process.
