Reconnaissance des actions humaines : méthode basée sur la réduction de dimensionnalité par MDS spatio-temporelle
Human action in a video sequence can be seen as a space-time volume induced by the concatenation of silhouettes in time. We present a space-time approach for human action recognition, which exploits global characteristics generated by the technique of dimensionality reduction MDS and a cube division into sub-blocks to model the dynamics of the actions. The objective is to provide a method that is simple, inexpensive and robust allowing simple action recognition. The process is fast, does not require video alignment, and is applicable in many scenarios. Moreover, we demonstrate the robustness of our method to partial occlusion, deformation of shapes, significant changes in scale and viewpoint, irregularities in the performance of an action, and low-quality video.
