合并方法是现代神经网络增加接受场并降低计算成本的必要性。但是,通常使用的手工制作的合并方法,例如,最大池和平均合并,可能无法保持判别特征。尽管许多研究人员在空间域中精心设计了各种汇集变体,以便在这些局限性方面处理这些局限性,但很少访问直接使用手工制作的方法,或者这些专业的空间变体可能不是最佳的。在本文中,我们从信号处理中的提升方案中得出了时间升降机池(TLP),以智能地逐步划分不同的时间层次结构。提升方案将输入信号分配到具有不同频率的各种子兰,这可以看作是不同的时间运动模式。我们的TLP是一个三阶段的过程,它执行信号分解,组件加权和信息融合以生成精致尺寸的特征图。我们选择具有长序列的典型时间任务,即连续的手语识别(CSLR)作为验证TLP的有效性的测试台。两个大规模数据集的实验表明,TLP的表现优于手工制作的方法和专门的空间变体,其较大的边距(1.5%)具有相似的计算开销。作为功​​能强大的功能提取器,TLP在各种数据集上的多个骨干上表现出很大的概括性,并在两个大规模的CSLR数据集上实现了新的最新结果。可视化进一步证明了TLP在校正光泽边界中的机制。代码已发布。

Hand and face play an important role in expressing sign language. Their features are usually especially leveraged to improve system performance. However, to effectively extract visual representations and capture trajectories for hands and face, previous methods always come at high computations with increased training complexity. They usually employ extra heavy pose-estimation networks to locate human body keypoints or rely on additional pre-extracted heatmaps for supervision. To relieve this problem, we propose a self-emphasizing network (SEN) to emphasize informative spatial regions in a self-motivated way, with few extra computations and without additional expensive supervision. Specifically, SEN first employs a lightweight subnetwork to incorporate local spatial-temporal features to identify informative regions, and then dynamically augment original features via attention maps. It's also observed that not all frames contribute equally to recognition. We present a temporal self-emphasizing module to adaptively emphasize those discriminative frames and suppress redundant ones. A comprehensive comparison with previous methods equipped with hand and face features demonstrates the superiority of our method, even though they always require huge computations and rely on expensive extra supervision. Remarkably, with few extra computations, SEN achieves new state-of-the-art accuracy on four large-scale datasets, PHOENIX14, PHOENIX14-T, CSL-Daily, and CSL. Visualizations verify the effects of SEN on emphasizing informative spatial and temporal features. Code is available at https://github.com/hulianyuyy/SEN_CSLR

对于基于骨架的动作识别中的当前方法通常是将长期时间依赖性作为骨骼序列捕获通常长的(> 128帧),这很常见,这对于先前的方法构成了一个具有挑战性的问题。在这种情况下,短期依赖性很少被正式考虑,这对于对类似动作进行分类至关重要。大多数当前的方法包括相互交织的仅空间模块和仅时间的模块,在这些模块中,在相邻框架中的关节之间的直接信息流受到阻碍,因此不如捕获短期运动并区分相似的动作对。为了应对这一限制,我们提出了一个作为stgat创造的一般框架,以建模跨天空信息流。它使仅空间模块与区域感知的时空建模相称。尽管STGAT在理论上对时空建模具有有效性,但我们提出了三个简单的模块,以减少局部时空特征冗余,并进一步释放STGAT的潜力,(1)(1)自我关注机制的范围,(2)动态重量的范围(2)沿时间尺寸的关节和(3)分别与静态特征分开的微妙运动。作为一个可靠的特征提取器,STGAT在对以前的方法进行分类时,在定性和定量结果中都证明了相似的动作。 STGAT在三个大规模数据集上实现了最先进的性能:NTU RGB+D 60,NTU RGB+D 120和动力学骨架400。释放了代码。

有效地对视频中的空间信息进行建模对于动作识别至关重要。为了实现这一目标,最先进的方法通常采用卷积操作员和密集的相互作用模块,例如非本地块。但是,这些方法无法准确地符合视频中的各种事件。一方面,采用的卷积是有固定尺度的,因此在各种尺度的事件中挣扎。另一方面,密集的相互作用建模范式仅在动作 - 欧元零件时实现次优性能,给最终预测带来了其他噪音。在本文中,我们提出了一个统一的动作识别框架,以通过引入以下设计来研究视频内容的动态性质。首先,在提取本地提示时,我们会生成动态尺度的时空内核,以适应各种事件。其次,为了将这些线索准确地汇总为全局视频表示形式,我们建议仅通过变压器在一些选定的前景对象之间进行交互,从而产生稀疏的范式。我们将提出的框架称为事件自适应网络(EAN),因为这两个关键设计都适应输入视频内容。为了利用本地细分市场内的短期运动,我们提出了一种新颖有效的潜在运动代码(LMC)模块,进一步改善了框架的性能。在几个大规模视频数据集上进行了广泛的实验,例如,某种东西,动力学和潜水48,验证了我们的模型是否在低拖鞋上实现了最先进或竞争性的表演。代码可在:https://github.com/tianyuan168326/ean-pytorch中找到。

Most deep-learning-based continuous sign language recognition (CSLR) models share a similar backbone consisting of a visual module, a sequential module, and an alignment module. However, due to limited training samples, a connectionist temporal classification loss may not train such CSLR backbones sufficiently. In this work, we propose three auxiliary tasks to enhance the CSLR backbones. The first task enhances the visual module, which is sensitive to the insufficient training problem, from the perspective of consistency. Specifically, since the information of sign languages is mainly included in signers' facial expressions and hand movements, a keypoint-guided spatial attention module is developed to enforce the visual module to focus on informative regions, i.e., spatial attention consistency. Second, noticing that both the output features of the visual and sequential modules represent the same sentence, to better exploit the backbone's power, a sentence embedding consistency constraint is imposed between the visual and sequential modules to enhance the representation power of both features. We name the CSLR model trained with the above auxiliary tasks as consistency-enhanced CSLR, which performs well on signer-dependent datasets in which all signers appear during both training and testing. To make it more robust for the signer-independent setting, a signer removal module based on feature disentanglement is further proposed to remove signer information from the backbone. Extensive ablation studies are conducted to validate the effectiveness of these auxiliary tasks. More remarkably, with a transformer-based backbone, our model achieves state-of-the-art or competitive performance on five benchmarks, PHOENIX-2014, PHOENIX-2014-T, PHOENIX-2014-SI, CSL, and CSL-Daily.

在视频数据中,来自移动区域的忙碌运动细节在频域中的特定频率带宽内传送。同时,视频数据的其余频率是用具有实质冗余的安静信息编码,这导致现有视频模型中的低处理效率作为输入原始RGB帧。在本文中,我们考虑为处理重要忙碌信息的处理和对安静信息的计算的处理分配。我们设计可训练的运动带通量模块(MBPM),用于将繁忙信息从RAW视频数据中的安静信息分开。通过将MBPM嵌入到两个路径CNN架构中,我们定义了一个繁忙的网络(BQN)。 BQN的效率是通过避免由两个路径处理的特征空间中的冗余来确定:一个在低分辨率的安静特征上运行,而另一个处理繁忙功能。所提出的BQN在某物V1,Kinetics400,UCF101和HMDB51数据集中略高于最近最近的视频处理模型。

The ultimate goal of continuous sign language recognition(CSLR) is to facilitate the communication between special people and normal people, which requires a certain degree of real-time and deploy-ability of the model. However, in the previous research on CSLR, little attention has been paid to the real-time and deploy-ability. In order to improve the real-time and deploy-ability of the model, this paper proposes a zero parameter, zero computation temporal superposition crossover module(TSCM), and combines it with 2D convolution to form a "TSCM+2D convolution" hybrid convolution, which enables 2D convolution to have strong spatial-temporal modelling capability with zero parameter increase and lower deployment cost compared with other spatial-temporal convolutions. The overall CSLR model based on TSCM is built on the improved ResBlockT network in this paper. The hybrid convolution of "TSCM+2D convolution" is applied to the ResBlock of the ResNet network to form the new ResBlockT, and random gradient stop and multi-level CTC loss are introduced to train the model, which reduces the final recognition WER while reducing the training memory usage, and extends the ResNet network from image classification task to video recognition task. In addition, this study is the first in CSLR to use only 2D convolution extraction of sign language video temporal-spatial features for end-to-end learning for recognition. Experiments on two large-scale continuous sign language datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method and achieve highly competitive results.

连续的手语识别(CSLR)是一项具有挑战性的研究任务,因为对手语数据的时间顺序缺乏准确的注释。最近流行的用法是基于CSLR的“ CNN + RNN”的混合模型。但是,当在这些作品中提取时间特征时,大多数方法都使用固定的时间接受字段,并且不能很好地提取每个手语单词的时间功能。为了获得更准确的时间特征,本文提出了一个多尺度的时间网络(MSTNET)。网络主要由三个部分组成。重新连接和两个完全连接(FC)层构成框架特征提取部分。时间方面的特征提取部分通过首先使用拟议的多尺度时间块(MST-block)提高不同尺度的时间功能来进行时间特征学习,以提高时间建模能力,然后进一步编码不同的时间特征。通过变压器模块缩放以获得更准确的时间特征。最后,拟议的多级连接派时间分类(CTC)损失零件用于训练以获得识别结果。多级CTC损失可以更好地学习和更新CNN中的浅网络参数,该方法没有参数增加,并且可以灵活地嵌入其他模型中。两个公开可用数据集的实验结果表明,我们的方法可以在没有任何先验知识的情况下以端到端的方式有效地提取手语特征,从而提高CSLR的准确性并实现竞争成果。

Temporal modeling is key for action recognition in videos. It normally considers both short-range motions and long-range aggregations. In this paper, we propose a Temporal Excitation and Aggregation (TEA) block, including a motion excitation (ME) module and a multiple temporal aggregation (MTA) module, specifically designed to capture both short-and long-range temporal evolution. In particular, for short-range motion modeling, the ME module calculates the feature-level temporal differences from spatiotemporal features. It then utilizes the differences to excite the motion-sensitive channels of the features. The long-range temporal aggregations in previous works are typically achieved by stacking a large number of local temporal convolutions. Each convolution processes a local temporal window at a time. In contrast, the MTA module proposes to deform the local convolution to a group of subconvolutions, forming a hierarchical residual architecture. Without introducing additional parameters, the features will be processed with a series of sub-convolutions, and each frame could complete multiple temporal aggregations with neighborhoods. The final equivalent receptive field of temporal dimension is accordingly enlarged, which is capable of modeling the long-range temporal relationship over distant frames. The two components of the TEA block are complementary in temporal modeling. Finally, our approach achieves impressive results at low FLOPs on several action recognition benchmarks, such as Kinetics, Something-Something, HMDB51, and UCF101, which confirms its effectiveness and efficiency.

In subcellular biological research, fluorescence staining is a key technique to reveal the locations and morphology of subcellular structures. However, fluorescence staining is slow, expensive, and harmful to cells. In this paper, we treat it as a deep learning task termed subcellular structure prediction (SSP), aiming to predict the 3D fluorescent images of multiple subcellular structures from a 3D transmitted-light image. Unfortunately, due to the limitations of current biotechnology, each image is partially labeled in SSP. Besides, naturally, the subcellular structures vary considerably in size, which causes the multi-scale issue in SSP. However, traditional solutions can not address SSP well since they organize network parameters inefficiently and inflexibly. To overcome these challenges, we propose Re-parameterizing Mixture-of-Diverse-Experts (RepMode), a network that dynamically organizes its parameters with task-aware priors to handle specified single-label prediction tasks of SSP. In RepMode, the Mixture-of-Diverse-Experts (MoDE) block is designed to learn the generalized parameters for all tasks, and gating re-parameterization (GatRep) is performed to generate the specialized parameters for each task, by which RepMode can maintain a compact practical topology exactly like a plain network, and meanwhile achieves a powerful theoretical topology. Comprehensive experiments show that RepMode outperforms existing methods on ten of twelve prediction tasks of SSP and achieves state-of-the-art overall performance.

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been extensively applied for image recognition problems giving stateof-the-art results on recognition, detection, segmentation and retrieval. In this work we propose and evaluate several deep neural network architectures to combine image information across a video over longer time periods than previously attempted. We propose two methods capable of handling full length videos. The first method explores various convolutional temporal feature pooling architectures, examining the various design choices which need to be made when adapting a CNN for this task. The second proposed method explicitly models the video as an ordered sequence of frames. For this purpose we employ a recurrent neural network that uses Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) cells which are connected to the output of the underlying CNN. Our best networks exhibit significant performance improvements over previously published results on the Sports 1 million dataset (73.1% vs. 60.9%) and the UCF-101 datasets with (88.6% vs. 88.0%) and without additional optical flow information (82.6% vs. 73.0%).

自动外科阶段识别在机器人辅助手术中起着重要作用。现有方法忽略了一个关键问题,即外科阶段应该通过学习段级语义来分类,而不是仅仅依赖于框架明智的信息。在本文中,我们提出了一种段 - 细分分层一致性网络(SAHC),用于来自视频的外科阶段识别。关键的想法是提取分层高级语义 - 一致的段,并使用它们来优化由暧昧帧引起的错误预测。为实现它,我们设计一个时间分层网络以生成分层高级段。然后,我们引入分层段帧注意力(SFA)模块,以捕获低级帧和高级段之间的关系。通过通过一致性损耗来规则地规范帧及其对应段的预测,网络可以生成语义 - 一致的段,然后纠正由模糊的低级帧引起的错误分类预测。我们在两个公共外科视频数据集上验证SAHC,即M2CAI16挑战数据集和CholeC80数据集。实验结果表明,我们的方法优于以前的最先进的余量,显着达到M2Cai16的4.1%。代码将在验收时在Github发布。

Sign language recognition (SLR) aims to overcome the communication barrier for the people with deafness or the people with hard hearing. Most existing approaches can be typically divided into two lines, i.e., Skeleton-based and RGB-based methods, but both the two lines of methods have their limitations. RGB-based approaches usually overlook the fine-grained hand structure, while Skeleton-based methods do not take the facial expression into account. In attempts to address both limitations, we propose a new framework named Spatial-temporal Part-aware network (StepNet), based on RGB parts. As the name implies, StepNet consists of two modules: Part-level Spatial Modeling and Part-level Temporal Modeling. Particularly, without using any keypoint-level annotations, Part-level Spatial Modeling implicitly captures the appearance-based properties, such as hands and faces, in the feature space. On the other hand, Part-level Temporal Modeling captures the pertinent properties over time by implicitly mining the long-short term context. Extensive experiments show that our StepNet, thanks to Spatial-temporal modules, achieves competitive Top-1 Per-instance accuracy on three widely-used SLR benchmarks, i.e., 56.89% on WLASL, 77.2% on NMFs-CSL, and 77.1% on BOBSL. Moreover, the proposed method is compatible with the optical flow input, and can yield higher performance if fused. We hope that this work can serve as a preliminary step for the people with deafness.

Temporal action detection (TAD) is extensively studied in the video understanding community by generally following the object detection pipeline in images. However, complex designs are not uncommon in TAD, such as two-stream feature extraction, multi-stage training, complex temporal modeling, and global context fusion. In this paper, we do not aim to introduce any novel technique for TAD. Instead, we study a simple, straightforward, yet must-known baseline given the current status of complex design and low detection efficiency in TAD. In our simple baseline (termed BasicTAD), we decompose the TAD pipeline into several essential components: data sampling, backbone design, neck construction, and detection head. We extensively investigate the existing techniques in each component for this baseline, and more importantly, perform end-to-end training over the entire pipeline thanks to the simplicity of design. As a result, this simple BasicTAD yields an astounding and real-time RGB-Only baseline very close to the state-of-the-art methods with two-stream inputs. In addition, we further improve the BasicTAD by preserving more temporal and spatial information in network representation (termed as PlusTAD). Empirical results demonstrate that our PlusTAD is very efficient and significantly outperforms the previous methods on the datasets of THUMOS14 and FineAction. Meanwhile, we also perform in-depth visualization and error analysis on our proposed method and try to provide more insights on the TAD problem. Our approach can serve as a strong baseline for future TAD research. The code and model will be released at https://github.com/MCG-NJU/BasicTAD.
