Problems about results

[ghost]

Hi, I try to run the code and get the result as a baseline. I didn't change the parameters and set the clip len=24, batch size=14, but I only got 89.55 acc for training 100 epochs, while the paper said it should be 90.94. I just don't know why the results are different.
I upload my training process, hope you can give me some possible reasons.

Hi,

I assume you are with MSRAction-3D.

Due to the small scale of the dataset and the randomness of data augmentation, different experimental environments may cause a fluctuation of about 1%, as discussed in issue. Please try to align your machine with the proposed.

Alternatively, tuning the hyper-parameters based on your environment may increase the accuracy.

Best.

I did get 90.94% with clip len = 24.
However, with clip len = 4, I only got 70.37% while paper claims 80.13%.

The code is for the 16-frame or 24-frame setting. For short video clips, you need to

1. close temporal stride by setting "temporal-stride" to 1.
2. remove temporal padding, i.e, temporal_padding=[0, 0] in msr.py.
3. reduce temple kernel size, e.g., setting "temporal-kernel-size" to 1.
4. increase frame intervals, e.g., setting "frame-interval" to 2 or 3.

Hi, Thanks for your update.

I have modified 1,2,3
please let us know where is 4. frame-interval?

Thanks.

Sorry... I updated the code. Please check train-msr.py and msr.py

Thank you so much. It is working now for frames = 4 and 8.
Do these rules also apply to other models like PSTNet, PST-Transformer, and PSTNet2?
I mean for experiments that involve 4 and 8 frames.

Correct.
