Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have structures that are loosely related to that of the primate visual cortex. Surprisingly, when these networks are trained for object classification, the activity of their early, intermediate, and…
Graph convolutional networks (GCNs), which can model the human body skeletons as spatial and temporal graphs, have shown remarkable potential in skeleton-based action recognition. However, in the existing GCN-based methods, graph-structured…
Human Interaction Recognition is the process of identifying interactive actions between multiple participants in a specific situation. The aim is to recognise the action interactions between multiple entities and their meaning. Many single…
The recognition of human actions and the determination of human attributes are two tasks that call for fine-grained classification. Indeed, often rather small and inconspicuous objects and features have to be detected to tell their classes…
