MVFNet: Multi-View Fusion Network for Efficient Video Recognition (AAAI 2021)

Overview

We release the code of the MVFNet (Multi-View Fusion Network). The core code to implement the Multi-View Fusion Module is codes/models/modules/MVF.py.

[Mar 24, 2021] We has released the code of MVFNet.

[Dec 20, 2020] MVFNet has been accepted by AAAI 2021.

• Prerequisites
• Data Preparation
• Model Zoo
• Testing
• Training

Prerequisites

All dependencies can be installed using pip:

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Our experiments run on Python 3.7 and PyTorch 1.5. Other versions should work but are not tested.

Download Pretrained Models

• Download ImageNet pre-trained models

cd pretrained
sh download_imgnet.sh

• Download K400 pre-trained models

Please refer to Model Zoo.

Data Preparation

Please refer to DATASETS.md for data preparation.

Model Zoo

Testing

• For 3 crops, 10 clips, the processing of testing

# Dataset: Kinetics-400
# Architecture: R50_8x8 ACC@1=76.0%
bash scripts/dist_test_recognizer.sh configs/MVFNet/K400/mvf_kinetics400_2d_rgb_r50_dense.py ckpt_path 8 --fcn_testing

Training

This implementation supports multi-gpu, DistributedDataParallel training, which is faster and simpler.

• For example, to train MVFNet-ResNet50 on Kinetics400 with 8 gpus, you can run:

bash scripts/dist_train_recognizer.sh configs/MVFNet/K400/mvf_kinetics400_2d_rgb_r50_dense.py 8
