Human Motion Anticipation with Symbolic Label

Understand

Anticipating human motion depends on two factors: the past motion and the person's intention.

• While the first factor has been extensively utilized to forecast short sequences of human motion, the second one remains elusive.
• In this work we approximate a person's intention via a symbolic representation, for example fine-grained action labels such as walking or sitting down.
• Forecasting a symbolic representation is much easier than forecasting the full body pose with its complex inter-dependencies.
