| Summary: | Human action recognition has been an active research area in recent years. However, building a robust human action recognition system still remains a challenging task due to the large variations in action classes, varying human appearances, illumination changes, camera motion, occlusions and background clutter. Most previous work focus on the goal of improving recognition rates. This paper describes a computationally fast votingbased approach for human action recognition, in which the action in the video sequence is recognized based on the support of the local spatio-temporal features. The proposed technique requires no parameter tuning and can produce recognition rates that are comparable to those in recent published literature. Moreover, the technique can localize the single human action in the video sequence without much additional computation. Recognition results on the KTH and Weizmann action dataset are presented. |
