Abstract: | To accurately recognize human actions in less computational time is one important aspect for practical usage. This paper presents an efficient framework for recognizing actions by a RGB-D camera. The novel action patterns in the framework are extracted via computing position offset of 3D skeletal body joints locally in the temporal extent of video. Action recognition is then performed by assembling these offset vectors using a bag-of-words framework and also by considering the spatial independence of body joints. We conducted extensive experiments on two benchmarking datasets: UCF dataset and MSRC-12 dataset, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework. Experimental results suggest that the proposed framework 1) is very fast to extract action patterns and very simple in implementation; and 2) can achieve a comparable or a better performance in recognition accuracy compared with the state-of-the-art approaches. |
