LucidAction: A Hierarchical and Multi-model Dataset for Comprehensive Action Quality Assessment

Action Quality Assessment (AQA) research confronts formidable obstacles due to limited, mono-modal datasets sourced from one-shot competitions, which hinder the generalizability and comprehensiveness of AQA models. To address these limitations, we present LucidAction, the first systematically collected multi-view AQA dataset structured on curriculum learning principles. LucidAction features a three-tier hierarchical structure, encompassing eight diverse sports events with four curriculum levels, facilitating sequential skill mastery and supporting a wide range of athletic abilities. The dataset encompasses multi-modal data, including multi-view RGB video, 2D and 3D pose sequences, enhancing the richness of information available for analysis. Leveraging a high-precision multi-view Motion Capture (MoCap) system ensures precise capture of complex movements. Meticulously annotated data, incorporating detailed penalties from professional gymnasts, ensures the establishment of robust and comprehensive ground truth annotations.
