Introduction

In UniFormerV2, we propose a generic paradigm to build a powerful family of video networks, by arming the pre-trained ViTs with efficient UniFormer designs. It inherits the concise style of the UniFormer block. But it contains brand- new local and global relation aggregators, which allow for preferable accuracy-computation balance by seamlessly integrating advantages from both ViTs and UniFormer. It gets the state-of-the-art recognition performance on 8 popular video benchmarks, including scene-related Kinetics-400/600/700 and Moments in Time, temporal-related Something-Something V1/V2, untrimmed ActivityNet and HACS. In particular, it is the first model to achieve 90% top-1 accuracy on Kinetics-400.
