To achieve superior object detection\r\nperformance, existing HOI models predominantly concentrate on the corresponding bounding box information of humans and objects, respectively, and ignore their surrounding information, thus it results in imprecise inference of instance interaction, which is severe for indirectly-contact interaction images (Intersectionover-Union = 0). To address that, a novel Triple stream Enhanced encoder-decoder Dispersal Network (TED-Net), equipped with human, object, and instance interaction decoding streams, is proposed to decouple instances’ relationships. Meanwhile, we design a dispersal attention mechanism to capture indirectly-contact interaction information and an auxiliary discrimination mechanism to improve the ability of instance interaction decoding stream for action category recognition. Experimental results show that the proposed TED-Net achieves the best performance among HOI models using the ResNet-50 backbone on the (big) HICODet dataset and comes third on the (small) V-COCO dataset in leaderboard. Additionally, two indirectly-contact interaction datasets, namely, HICO-Det-IC and V-COCO-IC, are constructed to demonstrate the usefulness and effectiveness of our TED-Net in\r\ninteracting between indirectly-contact instances, with an average of +3.80 mAP on HICO-Det-IC and +5.46 mAP on V-COCO-IC.
