Two-Stage Multi-Modal Fusion with Adaptive Alignment for Action Quality Assessment

Action Quality Assessment (AQA) aims to evaluate how well a person performs a movement, which is essential in applications such as sports scoring, skill assessment, and healthcare. However, unimodal approaches often struggle to capture subtle cues of movement quality in real-world settings. Although multi-modal inputs provide complementary information, existing methods still face two major challenges: heterogeneous modalities often lead to cross-modal misalignment and unstable fusion, and reliable multi-modal annotation is costly, resulting in limited dataset diversity. To address these challenges, we propose DualAlign, a two-stage multi-modal fusion framework with adaptive alignment. The framework first constructs a coherent visual representation by maximizing shared structural information across RGB video, optical flow, and skeleton modalities. Textual semantics are then incorporated after visual stabilization, allowing high-level descriptions to complement rather than distort the underlying visual manifold. To evaluate the framework under realistic multi-modal conditions, we introduce MM--JDM, a movement-quality assessment dataset integrating RGB videos, optical flow, skeleton sequences, and structured text. MM--JDM naturally exhibits modality noise, class imbalance, and label scarcity, making it a challenging benchmark for studying multi-modal fusion and alignment. Extensive experiments show that DualAlign improves average correlation on MM--JDM by 21.16% over the state-of-the-art methods and achieves gains of 3.53% and 5.95% on the RG and Fis-V benchmarks, respectively. DualAlign also remains robust under missing-modality and label-scarce conditions.
