MARS: Motion-Augmented RGB Stream for Action Recognition

By Nieves Crasto, Philippe Weinzaepfel, Karteek Alahari and Cordelia Schmid

MARS is a strategy to learn a stream that takes only RGB frames as input but leverages both appearance and motion information from them. This is achieved by training a network to minimize the loss between its features and the Flow stream, along with the cross entropy loss for recognition. For more details, please refer to our CVPR 2019 paper and our website.

We release the testing code along trained models.

Models

Trained models can be found here. The names of the models are in the form of

stream_dataset_frames.pth     

RGB_Kinetics_16f.pth indicates --modality RGB --dataset Kinetics --sample_duration 16

For HMDB51 and UCF101, we have only provided trained models for the first split.
