A novel approach to Video Action Counting (VAC) called Irregular Video Action Counting (IVAC) is introduced, which prioritizes modeling irregular repetition patterns in videos. IVAC defines two primary aspects: Inter-cycle Consistency, ensuring uniformity within cycles, and Cycle-interval Inconsistency, highlighting content differences between cycle segments and intervals. A new methodology incorporating consistency and inconsistency modules, supported by a unique pull-push loss (P2L) mechanism, is proposed. The IVAC-P2L model demonstrates exceptional adaptability and generalization across various video contents, outperforming existing models on the RepCount, UCFRep, and Countix datasets.

IVAC helps count actions in videos by understanding how they repeat. Traditionally, action counting ignored the complexities of repetition patterns. IVAC addresses this shortcoming by introducing a new way to model irregular repetitions. The approach defines two key aspects: ensuring uniformity within cycles and highlighting differences between cycle segments and intervals. A new method with a special loss mechanism is proposed. This innovative approach shows great promise in video analysis, setting a new benchmark in action counting.
