HFGCN:Hypergraph Fusion Graph Convolutional Networks for Skeleton-Based Action Recognition

In recent years, action recognition has received much attention and wide application due to its important role in video understanding. Most of the researches on action recognition methods focused on improving the performance via various deep learning methods rather than the classification of skeleton points. The topological modeling between skeleton points and body parts was seldom considered. Although some studies have used a data-driven approach to classify the topology of the skeleton point, the nature of the skeleton point in terms of kinematics has not been taken into consideration. Therefore, in this paper, we draw on the theory of kinematics to adapt the topological relations of the skeleton point and propose a topological relation classification based on body parts and distance from core of body. To synthesize these topological relations for action recognition, we propose a novel Hypergraph Fusion Graph Convolutional Network (HFGCN). In particular, the proposed model is able to focus on the human skeleton points and the different body parts simultaneously, and thus construct the topology, which improves the recognition accuracy obviously. We use a hypergraph to represent the categorical relationships of these skeleton points and incorporate the hypergraph into a graph convolution network to model the higher-order relationships among the skeleton points and enhance the feature representation of the network. In addition, our proposed hypergraph attention module and hypergraph graph convolution module optimize topology modeling in temporal and channel dimensions, respectively, to further enhance the feature representation of the network. We conducted extensive experiments on three widely used datasets.The results validate that our proposed method can achieve the best performance when compared with the state-of-the-art skeleton-based methods.

CPFES: Physical Fitness Evaluation Based on Canadian Agility and Movement Skill Assessment

In recent years, the assessment of fundamental movement skills integrated with physical education has focused on both teaching practice and the feasibility of assessment. The object of assessment has shifted from multiple ages to subdivided ages, while the content of assessment has changed from complex and time-consuming to concise and efficient. Therefore, we apply deep learning to physical fitness evaluation, we propose a system based on the Canadian Agility and Movement Skill Assessment (CAMSA) Physical Fitness Evaluation System (CPFES), which evaluates children's physical fitness based on CAMSA, and gives recommendations based on the scores obtained by CPFES to help children grow. We have designed a landmark detection module and a pose estimation module, and we have also designed a pose evaluation module for the CAMSA criteria that can effectively evaluate the actions of the child being tested. Our experimental results demonstrate the high accuracy of the proposed system.

Generative Modeling in Structural-Hankel Domain for Color Image Inpainting

In recent years, some researchers focused on using a single image to obtain a large number of samples through multi-scale features. This study intends to a brand-new idea that requires only ten or even fewer samples to construct the low-rank structural-Hankel matrices-assisted score-based generative model (SHGM) for color image inpainting task. During the prior learning process, a certain amount of internal-middle patches are firstly extracted from several images and then the structural-Hankel matrices are constructed from these patches. To better apply the score-based generative model to learn the internal statistical distribution within patches, the large-scale Hankel matrices are finally folded into the higher dimensional tensors for prior learning. During the iterative inpainting process, SHGM views the inpainting problem as a conditional generation procedure in low-rank environment. As a result, the intermediate restored image is acquired by alternatively performing the stochastic differential equation solver, alternating direction method of multipliers, and data consistency steps. Experimental results demonstrated the remarkable performance and diversity of SHGM.
