Action Annotation

Action annotation focuses on automatically labeling actions within videos, aiming to improve the accuracy and efficiency of video understanding systems. Current research emphasizes developing robust methods for annotating actions in egocentric videos and complex procedural activities, often employing large language models, multi-temporal scale feature extraction, and multi-modal approaches incorporating audio information to reduce reliance on expensive manual annotation. These advancements are crucial for building intelligent assistants capable of understanding and responding to human actions in real-world scenarios, as well as for improving the performance of video analysis tools across various applications.
