An efficient Bayesian framework for on-line action recognition

Abstract: On-line action recognition from a continuous stream of actionsis still an open problem with fewer solutions proposedcompared to time-segmented action recognition. The mostchallenging task is to classify the current action while findingits time boundaries at the same time. In this paper wepropose an approach capable of performing on-line actionsegmentation and recognition by means of batteries of HMMtaking into account all the possible time boundaries and actionclasses. A suitable Bayesian normalization is appliedto make observation sequences of different length comparableand computational optimizations are introduce to achievereal-time performances. Results on a well known actiondataset prove the efficacy of the proposed method
