To understand a complex action, multiple sources of information, including appearance, positional, and semantic features, need to be integrated. However, these features are difficult to be fused since they often differ significantly in modality and dimensionality. In this paper, we present a novel framework that accomplishes this goal by interactive fusion, namely, projecting features across different spaces and guiding it using an auxiliary prediction task. Specifically, we implement the framework in three steps, namely, positional-to-appearance feature extraction, semantic feature interaction, and semantic-to-positional prediction. We evaluate our approach on two action recognition datasets, Something-Something and Charades. Interactive fusion achieves consistent accuracy gain beyond off-the-shelf action recognition algorithms. In particular, on Something-Else, the compositional setting of Something-Something, interactive fusion reports a remarkable gain of 2.9% in terms of top-1 accuracy.
