- 在双人动作和宜家组装数据集上,帧级识别与分割准确率分别提升4.3%和8.5%
- 适合需要精细动作分析的机器人协作场景
人机交互行为识别对智能机器人至关重要,尤其在人机协作中,不仅需识别子动作标签,还需理解动作的时间结构。为自动识别交互序列中的动作标签与时间结构,本文提出一种新型金字塔图卷积网络(PGCN),采用基于注意力的图卷积网络与时间金字塔池化模块组成的编码器-解码器架构,分别在时间轴上实现下采样与上采样。系统将视频检测结果中的人体与物体二维或三维空间关系建模为图结构,通过新型注意力图卷积网络提取图表示中的浓缩信息;为实现动作分段,提出新颖的时间金字塔池化模块,将压缩特征上采样回原始时间尺度并进行逐帧分类。实验探索了空间、时间与通道注意力组合,并对比不同上采样解码器性能。在双人动作(Bimanual Actions)与宜家组装(IKEA Assembly)两个挑战性数据集上验证,模型显著提升帧级动作识别与分割效果,例如在双人动作数据集上F1 micro与F1@50指标分别提升4.3%和8.5%。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Human activities recognition is an important task for an intelligent robot, especially in the field of human-robot collaboration, it requires not only the label of sub-activities but also the temporal structure of the activity. In order to automatically recognize both the label and the temporal structure in sequence of human-object interaction, we propose a novel Pyramid Graph Convolutional Network (PGCN), which employs a pyramidal encoder-decoder architecture consisting of an attention based graph convolution network and a temporal pyramid pooling module for downsampling and upsampling interaction sequence on the temporal axis, respectively. The system represents the 2D or 3D spatial relation of human and objects from the detection results in video data as a graph. To learn the human-object relations, a new attention graph convolutional network is trained to extract condensed information from the graph representation. To segment action into sub-actions, a novel temporal pyramid pooling module is proposed, which upsamples compressed features back to the original time scale and classifies actions per frame. We explore various attention layers, namely spatial attention, temporal attention and channel attention, and combine different upsampling decoders to test the performance on action recognition and segmentation. We evaluate our model on two challenging datasets in the field of human-object interaction recognition, i.e. Bimanual Actions and IKEA Assembly datasets. We demonstrate that our classifier significantly improves both framewise action recognition and segmentation, e.g., F1 micro and F1@50 scores on Bimanual Actions dataset are improved by $4.3\%$ and $8.5\%$ respectively.
