RSTNet: A Spatio‐Temporal Attention Framework for Human Action Recognition

ABSTRACT This paper introduces RSTNet, a neural network model based on spatio‐temporal attention (STA), designed to improve the accuracy of human action recognition. The model uses heatmaps as input, employs 3D‐ResNet as its backbone network, and incorporates STA modules and squeeze‐and‐excitation (SE) modules. Experiments on the UCF101 dataset demonstrate that RSTNet outperforms other classic methods in key metrics such as Top1 accuracy, Top5 accuracy and average accuracy. Ablation studies further validate the contribution of each module to the model's performance, proving the effectiveness of this approach in capturing spatio‐temporal features and enhancing action recognition precision.

Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper introduces RSTNet, a neural network model based on spatio‐temporal attention (STA), designed to improve the accuracy of human action recognition. The model uses heatmaps as input, employs 3D‐ResNet as its backbone network, and incorporates STA modules and squeeze‐and‐excitation (SE) modules. Experiments on the UCF101 dataset demonstrate that RSTNet outperforms other classic methods in key metrics such as Top1 accuracy, Top5 accuracy and average accuracy. Ablation studies further validate the contribution of each module to the model's performance, proving the effectiveness of this approach in capturing spatio‐temporal features and enhancing action recognition precision.
