Abstract

Temporal Action Detection (TAD) in untrimmed videos is currently dominated by Transformer-based architectures. While high-performing, their quadratic computational complexity and substantial parameter redundancy limit deployment in resource-constrained environments. In this paper, we propose LiquidTAD, a novel parameter-efficient framework that replaces cumbersome self-attention layers with parallelized ActionLiquid blocks. Unlike traditional Liquid Neural Networks (LNNs) that suffer from sequen
