The Two-stream convolution neural network (CNN) has proven a great success in action recognition in videos. The main idea is to train the two CNNs in order to learn spatial and temporal features separately, and two scores are combined to obtain final scores. In the literature, we observed that most of the methods use similar CNNs for two streams. In this paper, we design a two-stream CNN architecture with different CNNs for the two streams to learn spatial and temporal features. Temporal Segment Networks (TSN) is applied in order to retrieve long-range temporal features, and to differentiate the similar type of sub-action in videos. Data augmentation techniques are employed to prevent over-fitting. Advanced cross-modal pre-training is discussed and introduced to the proposed architecture in order to enhance the accuracy of action recognition. The proposed two-stream model is evaluated on two challenging action recognition datasets: HMDB-51 and UCF-101. The findings of the proposed architecture shows the significant performance increase and it outperforms the existing methods.

Traditional convolution neural networks have achieved great success in human action recognition. However, it is challenging to establish effective associations between different human bone nodes to capture detailed information. In this paper, we propose a dual attention-guided multiscale dynamic aggregate graph convolution neural network (DAG-GCN) for skeleton-based human action recognition. Our goal is to explore the best correlation and determine high-level semantic features. First, a multiscale dynamic aggregate GCN module is used to capture important semantic information and to establish dependence relationships for different bone nodes. Second, the higher level semantic feature is further refined, and the semantic relevance is emphasized through a dual attention guidance module. In addition, we exploit the relationship of joints hierarchically and the spatial temporal correlations through two modules. Experiments with the DAG-GCN method result in good performance on the NTU-60-RGB+D and NTU-120-RGB+D datasets. The accuracy is 95.76% and 90.01%, respectively, for the cross (X)-View and X-Subon the NTU60dataset.

Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have attracted a lot of attention and shown remarkable performance for action recognition in recent years. For improving the recognition accuracy, how to build graph structure adaptively, select key frames and extract discriminative features are the key problems of this kind of method. In this work, we propose a novel Adaptive Attention Memory Graph Convolutional Networks (AAM-GCN) for human action recognition using skeleton data. We adopt GCN to adaptively model the spatial configuration of skeletons and employ Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) to construct an attention-enhanced memory for capturing the temporal feature. With the memory module, our model can not only remember what happened in the past but also employ the information in the future using multi-bidirectional GRU layers. Furthermore, in order to extract discriminative temporal features, the attention mechanism is also employed to select key frames from the skeleton sequence. Extensive experiments on Kinetics, NTU RGB+D and HDM05 datasets show that the proposed network achieves better performance than some state-of-the-art methods.

In view of difficulty in application of optical flow based human action recognition due to large amount of calculation, a human action recognition algorithm I3D-shufflenet model is proposed combining the advantages of I3D neural network and lightweight model shufflenet. The 5 × 5 convolution kernel of I3D is replaced by a double 3 × 3 convolution kernels, which reduces the amount of calculations. The shuffle layer is adopted to achieve feature exchange. The recognition and classification of human action is performed based on trained I3D-shufflenet model. The experimental results show that the shuffle layer improves the composition of features in each channel which can promote the utilization of useful information. The Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) spatial-temporal features of the object are extracted for training, which can significantly improve the ability of human action expression and reduce the calculation of feature extraction. The I3D-shufflenet is testified on the UCF101 dataset, and compared with other models. The final result shows that the I3D-shufflenet has higher accuracy than the original I3D with an accuracy of 96.4%.

Nowadays, action recognition has gained more attention from the computer vision community. Normally for recognizing human actions, spatial and temporal features are extracted. Two-stream convolutional neural network is used commonly for human action recognition in videos. In this paper, Adaptive motion Attentive Correlated Temporal Feature (ACTF) is used for temporal feature extractor. The temporal average pooling in inter-frame is used for extracting the inter-frame regional correlation feature and mean feature. This proposed method has better accuracy of 96.9% for UCF101 and 74.6% for HMDB51 datasets, respectively, which are higher than the other state-of-the-art methods.
