Temporal Convolutional Feature Pyramid Network (TCFPN) & <br> Iterative Soft Boundary Assignment (ISBA)

Introduction

In this work, we address the task of weakly-supervised human action segmentation in long, untrimmed videos. We propose a novel action modeling framework, which consists of a new temporal convolutional network, named Temporal Convolutional Feature Pyramid Network (TCFPN), for predicting frame-wise action labels, and a novel training strategy for weakly-supervised sequence modeling, named Iterative Soft Boundary Assignment (ISBA), to align action sequences and update the network in an iterative fashion. Details can be found in Weakly-Supervised Action Segmentation with Iterative Soft Boundary Assignment (Li Ding & Chenliang Xu, CVPR '18)

This repo includes Keras + Tensorflow implementation on Breakfast dataset. Tested with Ubuntu 16.04 + Python 2.7.

Overview

• train_spv.py - supervised training and testing using ED-TCN / TCFPN
