TL;DR
This paper introduces a new neural network for action recognition using human skeleton data that better captures complex joint relationships.
Contribution
The paper proposes a dual-branch hypergraph convolutional network that integrates spatio-temporal and channel-differential features for improved action recognition.
Findings

The dual-stream architecture enhances action feature representation through spatio-temporal and channel-differential analysis.
Abstract
Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) perform well in skeleton action recognition tasks, but their pairwise node connections make it difficult to effectively model high-order dependencies between non-adjacent joints. To address this issue, hypergraph methods have emerged with the aim of capturing complex associations between multiple joints. However, existing methods either rely on static hypergraph structures or fail to fully exploit feature interactions between channels, limiting their ability to adapt to complex action patterns. Therefore, we propose the Dual-Branch Differential Channel Hypergraph Convolutional Network (DBC-HCN), which leverages hypergraphs’ ability to represent a priori non-natural dependencies in skeletal structures. It extracts spatio-temporal topological information and higher-order correlations by integrating static and dynamic hypergraphs, leveraging channel…
