Large-scale Robustness Analysis of Video Action Recognition Models (CVPR 2023)

This repository is for Large-scale Robustness Analysis of Video Action Recognition Models by Madeline Chantry, Naman Biyani, Prudvi Kamtam, Shruti Vyas, Hamid Palangi, Vibhav Vineet, and Yogesh Singh Rawat.

Introduction

In this work we perform a robustness analysis of existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) models for video action recognition. We mainly focus on robustness against distribution shifts due to real-world perturbations instead of adversarial perturbations. In order to see if training on these distribution shifts improves performance, we trained on a variety of perturbations (discussed in the paper) for UCF101. We additionally trained on a SOTA augmentation method PixMix. This code is used for training and evaluation of these models with these different perturbations.

Setup

Environment

In order to install the correct packages, we have provided an environment.yml for conda and a requirements.txt for pip. If you are going to use conda, first edit the prefix filepath at the last line of environment.yml to where your local conda environments are stored. More information can be found in Managing Conda Environments.

Data

The datasets required for this repository are UCF101 and SomethingSomethingv2 (SSv2). Annotations for both datasets are located in data/ucf101 and data/ssv2.

Contents

The bulk of the perturbation code is in core. Perturbation code is found in core/video_perturb.py. Dataset annotations are in data/.

Usage

Below is an example script with annotations to explain each variable. The models that are currently supported and their respective frames are:

Model	Model Var	Num Frames
ResNet50	resnet50	8
I3D	i3d_r50	8
X3D	x3d	16
MViT	mvit	16
R3D	r2d1	8
SlowFast	slowfast_r50	32

PRETRAIN_PTH=torchhub  # This is if you are using the default weights from pytorchvideo, otherwise use own path
PRETRAIN_DATASET=kinetics400  # This is to set up the original linear classifier size
TYPE=ft  # This lets code know you are not training from scratch but loading pre-trained weights

TRAIN_DATASET=ssv2 # this is the dataset that you training/finetuning on, currently either ucf101 or ssv2
TRAIN_PATH=/home/schiappa/VideoRobustnessTraining/data/ssv2/train.csv  # Corresponding annotations
TEST_PATH=/home/schiappa/VideoRobustnessTraining/data/ssv2/test.csv  # Corresponding test annotations
ROOT_DIR=/home/c3-0/datasets/somethingsomething/videos/  # The root directory of the raw videos

MODEL=resnet50 # The model architecture you would like to train/test on
echo "Training resnet50 on SSv2"

# The outputpath is where all the results and weights will be stored.
OUTPUT_PATH=/home/schiappa/VideoRobustnessTraining/output/${MODEL}/${TYPE}_${TRAIN_DATASET}/${TRAIN_P}_3/save_last.pth

Pretrained Models

Model	Mixed $(\gamma^r)$	PixMix $(\gamma^r)$	Spatial $(\gamma^r)$	Temporal $(\gamma^r)$
MViT	0.59	0.29	0.08	0.21
R2D1	1.02	0.37	0.86	1.16
ResNet50	1.06	1.11	1.16	1.12
X3D	1.12	0.98	1.25	0.9

In this case, we treat the model trained on pertrubed data as "clean": $\gamma^r_p = 1 - (A^{f}_p - A^{f_p}_p)/ A^{f_p}_p$

Conflicting dependencies

Hi,
It seems these packages provided in requirements.txt file have some conflicting dependencies and some packages should be installed from a local or cached file path. They will not work on different machines or environments.
Could you please update them.
