Robust appearance-based human action recognition

DOI DOI

Description

An automatic human action representation and recognition technique is proposed in this paper. Appearance-change problem due to human wearing dresses and body shapes is also investigated in this study for automatic human action recognition. A tuned eigenspace technique is proposed for automatic human posture and/or motion recognition that successfully overcome the preceding problems. We employ image pre-processing by Gaussian and Sobel edge filter, called the first stage tuning, for reducing a dress effect, and a mean eigenspace produced by taking a mean of the similar postures, called the second stage tuning, for avoiding the preceding problems. An eigenspace called a tuned eigenspace is obtained from the mentioned processes and it is used for further recognition of unfamiliar postures and actions. The proposed method is compared with a related technique and the robustness of this approach is presented.
