Abstract
In recent years, there has been growing interest in the video-based action quality assessment (AQA). Most existing methods typically solve AQA problem by considering the entire video yet overlooking the inherent stage-level characteristics of actions. To address this issue, we design a novel Multi-stage Contrastive Regression (MCoRe) framework for the AQA task. This approach allows us to efficiently extract spatial-temporal information, while simultaneously reducing computational costs by segmenting the input video into multiple stages or procedures. Inspired by the graph contrastive learning, we propose a new stage-wise contrastive learning loss function to enhance performance. As a result, MCoRe demonstrates the state-of-the-art result so far on the widely-adopted fine-grained AQA dataset.
