Human Action Recognition using Recurrent Bag-of-Features Pooling
Résumé
Bag-of-Features (BoF)-based models have been traditionally used for various computer vision tasks, due to their ability to provide compact semantic representations of complex objects, e.g., images, videos, etc. Indeed, BoF has been successfully combined with various feature extractions methods, ranging from handcrafted feature extractors to powerful deep learning models. However, BoF, along with most of the pooling approaches employed in deep learning, fails to capture the temporal dynamics of the input sequences. This leads to significant information loss, especially when the informative content of the data is sequentially distributed over the temporal dimension, e.g., videos. In this paper we propose a novel stateful recurrent quantization and aggregation approach in order to overcome the aforementioned limitation. The proposed method is inspired by the well-known Bag-of-Features (BoF) model, but employs a stateful trainable recurrent quantizer, instead of plain static quantization, allowing for effectively encoding the temporal dimension of the data. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated using three video action recognition datasets.
