Kinetics is a collection of large-scale, high-quality datasets of URL links of up to 650,000 video clips that cover 400/600/700 human action classes, depending on the dataset version. The videos include human-object interactions such as playing instruments, as well as human-human interactions such as shaking hands and hugging. Each action class has at least 400/600/700 video clips. Each clip is human annotated with a single action class and lasts around 10 seconds.

The Kinetics project publications can be found here: https://deepmind.com/research/open-source/kinetics.

CVDF currently hosts the videos in the Kinetics-400 and Kinetics-700-2020 datasets.

The train/val/test splits are subdivided into many files. The lists of links to video files can be found here:

https://s3.amazonaws.com/kinetics/400/val/k400_val_path.txt

https://s3.amazonaws.com/kinetics/400/test/k400_test_path.txt

It is easy to obtain a specific split (e.g. train), by:

bash download.sh k400_train_path.txt

Then, extract *.tar.gz files by:

bash extract.sh k400_train_path.txt
