Résumé

Recognizing human activities using automated methods has emerged recently as a pivotal research theme for security-related applications. In this research paper, an optical flow descriptor is proposed for the recognition of human actions by considering only features derived from the motion. The signature for the human action is composed as a histogram containing kinematic features which include the local and global traits. Experimental results performed on the Weizmann and UCF101 databases confirmed the potentials of the proposed approach with attained classification rates of 98.76% and 70%, respectively, to distinguish between different human actions. For comparative and performance analysis, different types of classifiers including Knn, decision tree, SVM and deep learning are applied to the proposed descriptors. Further analysis is performed to assess the proposed descriptors under different resolutions and frame rates. The obtained results are in alignment with the early psychological studies reporting that human motion is adequate for the perception of human activities.
