# EPIC-KITCHENS-100 Causal

This metadata-only dataset converts EPIC-KITCHENS-100 action starts into
causal 2 FPS scheduler labels over non-overlapping 10-second windows. Official
validation videos are deterministically divided into validation and test by
video ID, so windows from one video never cross evaluation splits.

Videos are not redistributed. Download them with the
[official downloader](https://github.com/epic-kitchens/epic-kitchens-download-scripts),
then create local windows with:

```bash
uv run scripts/prepare_epic_kitchens_clips.py \
  --full-video-root data/epic_kitchens_100/full_videos
```

The source annotations and videos retain the EPIC-KITCHENS-100
