Abstract
Skeleton-based action recognition has achieved great advances with the development of graph convolutional networks (GCNs). Many existing GCNs-based models only use the fixed hand-crafted adjacency matrix to describe the connections between human body joints. This omits the important implicit connections between joints, which contain discriminative information for different actions. In this paper, we propose an action-specific graph convolutional module, which is able to extract the implicit connections and properly balance them for each action. In addition, to filter out the useless and redundant information in the temporal dimension, we propose a simple yet effective operation named gated temporal convolution. These two major novelties ensure the superiority of our proposed method, as demonstrated on three large-scale public datasets: NTU-RGB + D, Kinetics, and NTU-RGB + D 120, and also shown in the detailed ablation studies.
