PYSKL

PYSKL is a toolbox focusing on action recognition based on SKeLeton data with PYTorch. Various algorithms will be supported for skeleton-based action recognition. We build this project based on the OpenSource Project MMAction2.

This repo is the official implementation of PoseConv3D and STGCN++.

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

Supported Algorithms

ST-GCN (AAAI 2018): https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.07455 [MODELZOO]
ST-GCN++ (PYSKL): Tech Report Coming Soon [MODELZOO]
PoseConv3D (CVPR 2022 Oral): https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.13586 [MODELZOO]

Installation

git clone https://github.com/kennymckormick/pyskl.git
cd pyskl
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

Data Preparation

For data pre-processing, we estimate 2D skeletons with a two-stage pose estimator (Faster-RCNN + HRNet). For 3D skeletons, we follow the pre-processing procedure of CTR-GCN. Currently, we do not provide the pre-processing scripts. Instead, we directly provide the processed skeleton data as pickle files, which can be directly used in training and evaluation. You can use vis_skeleton to visualize the provided skeleton data.

Training & Testing

You can use following commands for training and testing. Basically, we support distribued training on a single server with multiple GPUs.

# Training
bash tools/dist_train.sh {config_name} {num_gpus} {other_options}
# Testing
bash tools/dist_test.sh {config_name} {checkpoint} {num_gpus} --out {output_file} --eval top_k_accuracy mean_class_accuracy

For specific examples, please go to the README for each specific algorithm we supported.
