Skeleton-Based Action Segmentation with Multi-Stage Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Neural Networks

The ability to identify and temporally segment fine-grained actions in motion capture sequences is crucial for applications in human movement analysis. Motion capture is typically performed with optical or inertial measurement systems, which encode human movement as a time series of human joint locations and orientations or their higher-order representations. State-of-the-art action segmentation approaches use multiple stages of temporal convolutions. The main idea is to generate an initial prediction with several layers of temporal convolutions and refine these predictions over multiple stages, also with temporal convolutions. Although these approaches capture long-term temporal patterns, the initial predictions do not adequately consider the spatial hierarchy among the human joints. To address this limitation, we recently introduced multi-stage spatial-temporal graph convolutional neural networks (MS-GCN). Our framework replaces the initial stage of temporal convolutions with spatial graph convolutions and dilated temporal convolutions, which better exploit the spatial configuration of the joints and their long-term temporal dynamics. Our framework was compared to four strong baselines on five tasks. Experimental results demonstrate that our framework is a strong baseline for skeleton-based action segmentation.
