Abstract
- In skeleton‐based action recognition, the graph convolutional network (GCN) has achieved great success. Modelling skeleton data in a suitable spatial‐temporal way and designing the adjacency matrix are crucial aspects for GCN‐based methods to capture joint relationships. In this study, we propose the spatial‐temporal slowfast graph convolutional network (STSF‐GCN) and design the adjacency matrices for the skeleton data graphs in STSF‐GCN. STSF‐GCN contains two pathways: (1) the fast pathway is in a high frame rate, and joints of adjacent frames are unified to build 'small' spatial‐temporal graphs. A new spatial‐temporal adjacency matrix is proposed for these 'small' spatial‐temporal graphs. Ablation studies verify the effectiveness of the proposed adjacency matrix. (2) The slow pathway is in a low frame rate, and joints from all frames are unified to build one 'big' spatial‐temporal graph. The adjacency matrix for the 'big' spatial‐temporal graph is obtained by computing self‐attention coefficients of each joint. Finally, outputs from two pathways are fused to predict the action category. STSF‐GCN can efficiently capture both long‐range and short‐range spatial‐temporal joint relationships. On three datasets for skeleton‐based action recognition, STSF‐GCN can achieve state‐of‐the‐art performance with much less computational cost. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
