SGA-INTERACT: A 3D Skeleton-based Benchmark for Group Activity Understanding in Modern Basketball Tactic

Group Activity Understanding is predominantly studied as Group Activity Recognition (GAR) task. However, existing GAR benchmarks suffer from coarse-grained activity vocabularies and the only data form in single-view, which hinder the evaluation of state-of-the-art algorithms. To address these limitations, we introduce SGA-INTERACT, the first 3D skeleton-based benchmark for group activity understanding. It features complex activities inspired by basketball tactics, emphasizing rich spatial interactions and long-term dependencies. SGA-INTERACT introduces Temporal Group Activity Localization (TGAL) task, extending group activity understanding to untrimmed sequences, filling the gap left by GAR as a standalone task. In addition to the benchmark, we propose One2Many, a novel framework that employs a pretrained 3D skeleton backbone for unified individual feature extraction. This framework aligns with the feature extraction paradigm in RGB-based methods, enabling direct evaluation of RGB-based models on skeleton-based benchmarks. We conduct extensive evaluations on SGA-INTERACT using two skeleton-based methods, three RGB-based methods, and a proposed baseline within the One2Many framework. The general low performance of baselines highlights the benchmark's challenges, motivating advancements in group activity understanding.
