🥳 🚀 What's New 🔝

The default branch has been switched to main(previous 1.x) from master(current 0.x), and we encourage users to migrate to the latest version with more supported models, stronger pre-training checkpoints and simpler coding. Please refer to Migration Guide for more details.

Release (2023.10.12): v1.2.0 with the following new features:

• Support VindLU multi-modality algorithm and the Training of ActionClip
• Support lightweight model MobileOne TSN/TSM
• Support video retrieval dataset MSVD
• Support SlowOnly K700 feature to train localization models
• Support Video and Audio Demos

📖 Introduction 🔝

MMAction2 is an open-source toolbox for video understanding based on PyTorch. It is a part of the OpenMMLab project.

🎁 Major Features 🔝

• Modular design: We decompose a video understanding framework into different components. One can easily construct a customized video understanding framework by combining different modules.

• Support five major video understanding tasks: MMAction2 implements various algorithms for multiple video understanding tasks, including action recognition, action localization, spatio-temporal action detection, skeleton-based action detection and video retrieval.

• Well tested and documented: We provide detailed documentation and API reference, as well as unit tests.

🛠️ Installation 🔝

MMAction2 depends on PyTorch, MMCV, MMEngine, MMDetection (optional) and MMPose (optional).

Please refer to install.md for detailed instructions.

👀 Model Zoo 🔝

Results and models are available in the model zoo.

👨‍🏫 Get Started 🔝

For tutorials, we provide the following user guides for basic usage:

• Migration from MMAction2 0.X
• Learn about Configs
• Prepare Datasets
• Inference with Existing Models
• Training and Testing

🎫 License 🔝

This project is released under the Apache 2.0 license.
