G-TAD

This repo holds the codes of paper: "G-TAD: Sub-Graph Localization for Temporal Action Detection", accepted in CVPR 2020.

Update

15 Dec 2020: The configuration for HACS Segment dataset is in the hacs branch. With the officail I3D pretrained features, G-TAD can reach 27.481 Average mAP without tuning the model architecture.

24 Nov 2020: to celebrate my 2nd anniversary with Sally, I released the code for ActivityNet. :P Please checkout the branch anet to see the details. Feature: GooogleDrive, md5sum: 0ce54748883c4ce1cf6600f5ad04421b.

30 Mar 2020: THUMOS14 feature is available! GooogleDrive, OneDrive

15 Apr 2020: THUMOS14 code is published! I update the post processing code so the experimental result is slightly better than the orignal paper!

29 Apr 2020: We updated our code based on @Phoenix1327's comment. The experimental result is slightly better. Please see details in this issue.

Overview

Temporal action detection is a fundamental yet challenging task in video understanding. Video context is a critical cue to effectively detect actions, but current works mainly focus on temporal context, while neglecting semantic context as well as other important context properties. In this work, we propose a graph convolutional network (GCN) model to adaptively incorporate multi-level semantic context into video features and cast temporal action detection as a sub-graph localization problem. Specifically, we formulate video snippets as graph nodes, snippet-snippet correlations as edges, and actions associated with context as target sub-graphs. With graph convolution as the basic operation, we design a GCN block called GCNeXt, which learns the features of each node by aggregating its context and dynamically updates the edges in the graph. To localize each sub-graph, we also design a SGAlign layer to embed each sub-graph into the Euclidean space. Extensive experiments show that G-TAD is capable of finding effective video context without extra supervision and achieves state-of-the-art performance on two detection benchmarks. On ActityNet-1.3, we obtain an average mAP of 34.09%; on THUMOS14, we obtain 40.16% in [email protected], beating all the other one-stage methods.

Dependencies

• Python == 3.7
• Pytorch==1.1.0 or 1.3.0
• CUDA==10.0.130
• CUDNN==7.5.1_0
• GCC >= 4.9

Installation

Based on the idea of ROI Alignment from Mask-RCNN, we devoloped SGAlign layer in our implementation. You have to compile a short cuda code to run Algorithm 1 in our paper.

1. Create conda environment

   conda env create -f env.yml
   source activate gtad

2. Install Align1D2.2.0

   cd gtad_lib
   python setup.py install

3. Test Align1D2.2.0

   python align.py

Data setup

To reproduce the results in THUMOS14 without further changes:

1. Download the data from GooogleDrive or OneDrive.

2. Place it into a folder named TSN_pretrain_avepool_allfrms_hdf5 inside data/thumos_feature.

You could also pass the folder containing the HDF5 files if the script admits the following argument --feature_path.

Code Architecture

gtad                        # this repo
├── data                    # feature and label
├── evaluation              # evaluation code from offical API
├── gtad_lib                # gtad library
└── ...

Train and evaluation

After downloading the dataset and setting up the envirionment, you can start from the following script.

python gtad_train.py
python gtad_inference.py
python gtad_postprocessing.py

or

bash gtad_thumos.sh | tee log.txt

If everything goes well, you can get the following result:

mAP at tIoU 0.3 is 0.5731204387052588
mAP at tIoU 0.4 is 0.5129888769308306
mAP at tIoU 0.5 is 0.43043083034478025
mAP at tIoU 0.6 is 0.32653130678508374
mAP at tIoU 0.7 is 0.22806267480976325
