Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In recent years, Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have been widely used for skeleton-based action recognition and have achieved remarkable performance. However, although existing GCNs can effectively capture global relationships between joints by spatial graph convolution, they still have limitations in capturing local and complex spatio-temporal relationships, and in fully utilizing semantic information for feature learning. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel approach called Spatio-Temporal Local Graph Convolutional Network, which consists of a Partitioning Module (PM), a Spatio-Temporal Graph Convolution (ST-GC) module and a Joint Prototype Loss (JPL) function. Specifically, the PM partitions the global skeleton into multiple local skeletons, thereby facilitating the capture of local relationships between joints. Besides classical spatial graph convolution, the ST-GC also adopts temporal and spatio-temporal graph convolutions to effectively capture complex spatio-temporal dependencies. All three types of convolutions leverage their respective data-driven dynamic topologies for feature aggregation. In the JPL, prototypes with semantic information are enhanced by incorporating biological topology to introduce spatial structural information, thereby guiding feature learning to improve classification performance. We conduct extensive evaluations on the NTU RGB+D 60 and NTU RGB+D 120 datasets, demonstrating that our proposed method achieves competitive recognition performance.
