Nuanced understanding and the generation of detailed descriptive content for (bimanual) manipulation actions in videos is important for disciplines such as robotics, human-computer interaction, and video content analysis. This study…
There are multiple cues in an image which reveal what action a person is performing. For example, a jogger has a pose that is characteristic for jogging, but the scene (e.g. road, trail) and the presence of other joggers can be an…
Accurate video understanding involves reasoning about the relationships between actors, objects and their environment, often over long temporal intervals. In this paper, we propose a message passing graph neural network that explicitly…
Human actions in videos are 3D signals. However, there are a few methods available for multiple human action recognition. For long videos, it's difficult to search within a video for a specific action and/or person. For that, this paper…
Recognizing instances at different scales simultaneously is a fundamental challenge in visual detection problems. While spatial multi-scale modeling has been well studied in object detection, how to effectively apply a multi-scale…

Most state-of-the-art action localization systems process each action proposal individually, without explicitly exploiting their relations during learning. However, the relations between proposals actually play an important role in action…
Events in natural videos typically arise from spatio-temporal interactions between actors and objects and involve multiple co-occurring activities and object classes. To capture this rich visual and semantic context, we propose using two…
