We propose a novel deep supervised neural network for the task of action recognition in videos, which implicitly takes advantage of visual tracking and shares the robustness of both deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). In our method, a multi-branch model is proposed to suppress noise from background jitters. Specifically, we firstly extract multi-level deep features from deep CNNs and feed them into 3d-convolutional network. After that we feed those feature cubes into our novel joint LSTM module to predict labels and to generate attention regularization. We evaluate our model on two challenging datasets: UCF101 and HMDB51. The results show that our model achieves the state-of-art by only using convolutional features.

By extracting spatial and temporal characteristics in one network, the two-stream ConvNets can achieve the state-of-the-art performance in action recognition. However, such a framework typically suffers from the separately processing of spatial and t emporal information between the two standalone streams and is hard to capture long-term temporal dependence of an action. More importantly, it is incapable of finding the salient portions of an action, say, the frames that are the most discriminative to identify the action. To address these problems, a textbf{j}oint textbf{n}etwork based textbf{a}ttention (JNA) is proposed in this study. We find that the fully-connected fusion, branch selection and spatial attention mechanism are totally infeasible for action recognition. Thus in our joint network, the spatial and temporal branches share some information during the training stage. We also introduce an attention mechanism on the temporal domain to capture the long-term dependence meanwhile finding the salient portions. Extensive experiments are conducted on two benchmark datasets, UCF101 and HMDB51. Experimental results show that our method can improve the action recognition performance significantly and achieves the state-of-the-art results on both datasets.
Action recognition has been a widely studied topic with a heavy focus on supervised learning involving sufficient labeled videos. However, the problem of cross-domain action recognition, where training and testing videos are drawn from different unde rlying distributions, remains largely under-explored. Previous methods directly employ techniques for cross-domain image recognition, which tend to suffer from the severe temporal misalignment problem. This paper proposes a Temporal Co-attention Network (TCoN), which matches the distributions of temporally aligned action features between source and target domains using a novel cross-domain co-attention mechanism. Experimental results on three cross-domain action recognition datasets demonstrate that TCoN improves both previous single-domain and cross-domain methods significantly under the cross-domain setting.
Most human action recognition systems typically consider static appearances and motion as independent streams of information. In this paper, we consider the evolution of human pose and propose a method to better capture interdependence among skeleton joints. Our model extracts motion information from each joint independently, reweighs the information and finally performs inter-joint reasoning. The effectiveness of pose and joint-based representations is strengthened using a geometry-aware data augmentation technique which jitters pose heatmaps while retaining the dynamics of the action. Our best model gives an absolute improvement of 8.19% on JHMDB, 4.31% on HMDB and 1.55 mAP on Charades datasets over state-of-the-art methods using pose heat-maps alone. Fusing with RGB and flow streams leads to improvement over state-of-the-art. Our model also outperforms the baseline on Mimetics, a dataset with out-of-context videos by 1.14% while using only pose heatmaps. Further, to filter out clips irrelevant for action recognition, we re-purpose our model for clip selection guided by pose information and show improved performance using fewer clips.
Compared with facial emotion recognition on categorical model, the dimensional emotion recognition can describe numerous emotions of the real world more accurately. Most prior works of dimensional emotion estimation only considered laboratory data an d used video, speech or other multi-modal features. The effect of these methods applied on static images in the real world is unknown. In this paper, a two-level attention with two-stage multi-task learning (2Att-2Mt) framework is proposed for facial emotion estimation on only static images. Firstly, the features of corresponding region(position-level features) are extracted and enhanced automatically by first-level attention mechanism. In the following, we utilize Bi-directional Recurrent Neural Network(Bi-RNN) with self-attention(second-level attention) to make full use of the relationship features of different layers(layer-level features) adaptively. Owing to the inherent complexity of dimensional emotion recognition, we propose a two-stage multi-task learning structure to exploited categorical representations to ameliorate the dimensional representations and estimate valence and arousal simultaneously in view of the correlation of the two targets. The quantitative results conducted on AffectNet dataset show significant advancement on Concordance Correlation Coefficient(CCC) and Root Mean Square Error(RMSE), illustrating the superiority of the proposed framework. Besides, extensive comparative experiments have also fully demonstrated the effectiveness of different components.
Facial action unit (AU) detection and face alignment are two highly correlated tasks since facial landmarks can provide precise AU locations to facilitate the extraction of meaningful local features for AU detection. Most existing AU detection works often treat face alignment as a preprocessing and handle the two tasks independently. In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end deep learning framework for joint AU detection and face alignment, which has not been explored before. In particular, multi-scale shared features are learned firstly, and high-level features of face alignment are fed into AU detection. Moreover, to extract precise local features, we propose an adaptive attention learning module to refine the attention map of each AU adaptively. Finally, the assembled local features are integrated with face alignment features and global features for AU detection. Experiments on BP4D and DISFA benchmarks demonstrate that our framework significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods for AU detection.
