Thanks for sharing this dataset. 

I tried to visualize the person id of each person roi and I found many mismatching cases of the same person between different frames. 

I am wondering how the person ids of AVA were annotated. Thank you.

Hi Jiagang Zhu,

Thanks for your interest in AVA. The method for annotating person ids is described in section 3.4 of the paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/1705.08421.pdf.

Are the problems that you're seeing false positives (two different people get the same id) or false negatives (the same person gets two different ids and is not linked)?

Regards,
David

Thanks for your response.


I mean the latter false negatives. It seems that the shot cut of AVA movie and abrupt appearance change of person frequently change the person id of the same person.

Hi Jiagang Zhu,

I understand. Unfortunately these missed linkages are a limitation of the approach we used -- trying to connect people only across adjacent keyframes. Our focus is to identify atomic actions over short time stretches, and to possibly leverage short sequences of actions within a single shot to improve performance. Modeling extended action sequences across shot boundaries in AVA is an open problem.

Regards,
David
