Abstract:

Fine-grained action analysis in multi-person sports is complex due to athletes' quick movements and intense physical confrontations, which result in severe visual obstructions in most scenes. In addition, accessible multi-person sports video datasets lack fine-grained action annotations in both space and time, adding to the difficulty in fine-grained action analysis.To this end, we construct a new multi-person basketball sports video dataset named FineSports, which contains fine-grained semantic and spatial-temporal annotations on 10,000 NBA game videos, covering 52 fine-grained action types, 16,000 action instances, and 123,000 spatial-temporal bounding boxes. We also propose a new prompt-driven spatial-temporal action location approach called PoSTAL, composed of a prompt-driven target action encoder (PTA) and an action tube-specific detector (ATD) to directly generate target action tubes with fine-grained action types without any off-line proposal generation. Extensive experiments on the FineSports dataset demonstrate that PoSTAL outperforms state-of-the-art methods. Data and code are available at https://github.com/PKU-ICST-MIPL/FineSports_CVPR2024.
