Temporal Action Segmentation (TAS) from video is a kind of frame recognition task for long video with multiple action classes. As an video understanding task for long videos, current methods typically combine multi-modality action recognition models with temporal models to convert feature sequences to label sequences. This approach can only be applied to offline scenarios, which severely limits the TAS application. Therefore, this paper proposes an end-to-end Streaming Video Temporal Action Segmentation with Reinforce Learning (SVTAS-RL). The end-to-end SVTAS which regard TAS as an action segment clustering task can expand the application scenarios of TAS; and RL is used to alleviate the problem of inconsistent optimization objective and direction. Through extensive experiments, the SVTAS-RL model achieves a competitive performance to the state-of-the-art model of TAS on multiple datasets, and shows greater advantages on the ultra-long video dataset EGTEA. This indicates that our method can replace all current TAS models end-to-end and SVTAS-RL is more suitable for long video TAS. Code is availabel at https://github.com/Thinksky5124/SVTAS.
