Abstract

Temporal action localization (TAL) aims to detect the boundary and identify the class of each action instance in a long untrimmed video. Current approaches treat video frames homogeneously, and tend to give background and key objects excessive attention. This limits their sensitivity to localize action boundaries. To this end, we propose a prior-enhanced temporal action localization method (PETAL), which only takes in RGB input and incorporates action subjects as priors. This proposal leverages action subjects' information with a plug-and-play subject-aware spatial attention module (SA-SAM) to generate an aggregated and subject-prioritized representation. Experimental results on THUMOS-14 and ActivityNet-1.3 datasets demonstrate that the proposed PETAL achieves competitive performance using only RGB features, e.g., boosting mAP by 2.41% or 0.25% over the state-of-the-art approach that uses RGB features or with additional optical flow features on the THUMOS-14 dataset.
