Toyota Smarthome Untrimmed: Real-World Untrimmed Videos for Activity Detection.

Designing activity detection systems that can be successfully deployed in daily-living environments requires datasets that pose the challenges typical of real-world scenarios. In this paper, we introduce a new untrimmed daily-living dataset that features several real-world challenges: Toyota Smarthome Untrimmed (TSU). TSU contains a wide variety of activities performed in a spontaneous manner.

Fast Weakly Supervised Action Segmentation Using Mutual Consistency.

Action segmentation is the task of predicting the actions for each frame of a video. As obtaining the full annotation of videos for action segmentation is expensive, weakly supervised approaches that can learn only from transcripts are appealing. In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end approach for weakly supervised action segmentation based on a two-branch neural network.

Automatic Off-Line Design of Robot Swarms: A Manifesto.

Designing collective behaviors for robot swarms is a difficult endeavor due to their fully distributed, highly redundant, and ever-changing nature. To overcome the challenge, a few approaches have been proposed, which can be classified as manual, semi-automatic, or automatic design. This paper is intended to be the manifesto of the automatic off-line design for robot swarms.
