MMAction2 is an open-source toolbox for video understanding based on PyTorch. It is a part of the OpenMMLab project.

The master branch works with PyTorch 1.3+.


Action Recognition Results on Kinetics-400


Skeleton-base Action Recognition Results on NTU-RGB+D-120


Spatio-Temporal Action Detection Results on AVA-2.1

Major Features

  • Modular design: We decompose a video understanding framework into different components. One can easily construct a customized video understanding framework by combining different modules.

  • Support four major video understanding tasks: MMAction2 implements various algorithms for multiple video understanding tasks, including action recognition, action localization, spatio-temporal action detection, and skeleton-based action detection. We support 27 different algorithms and 20 different datasets for the four major tasks.

  • Well tested and documented: We provide detailed documentation and API reference, as well as unit tests.

Updates

  • (2021-10-29) We provide a demo for skeleton-based and rgb-based spatio-temporal detection and action recognition (demo/demo_video_structuralize.py).
  • (2021-10-26) We train and test ST-GCN on NTU60 with 3D keypoint annotations, achieve 84.61% Top-1 accuracy (higher than 81.5% in the paper).
  • (2021-10-25) We provide a script(tools/data/skeleton/gen_ntu_rgbd_raw.py) to convert the NTU60 and NTU120 3D raw skeleton data to our format.
  • (2021-10-25) We provide a guide on how to train PoseC3D with custom datasets, bit-scientist authored this PR!
  • (2021-10-16) We support PoseC3D on UCF101 and HMDB51, achieves 87.0% and 69.3% Top-1 accuracy with 2D skeletons only. Pre-extracted 2D skeletons are also available.

Release: v0.20.0 was released in 30/10/2021. Please refer to changelog.md for details and release history.
