A novel method based on hybrid feature is proposed for human action recognition in video image sequences, which includes two stages of feature extraction and action recognition. Firstly, we use adaptive background subtraction algorithm to extract global silhouette feature and optical flow model to extract local optical flow feature. Then we combine global silhouette feature vector and local optical flow feature vector to form a hybrid feature vector. Secondly, in order to improve the recognition accuracy, we use an optimized Multiple Instance Learning algorithm to recognize human actions, in which an Iterative Querying Heuristic (IQH) optimization algorithm is used to train the Multiple Instance Learning model. We demonstrate that our hybrid feature-based action representation can effectively classify novel actions on two different data sets. Experiments show that our results are comparable to, and significantly better than, the results of two state-of-the-art approaches on these data sets, which meets the requirements of stable, reliable, high precision, and anti-interference ability and so forth.

Video based human action recognition has attained more attraction from the researchers and it predominates in the field of computer vision and pattern recognition. In this paper we deliver a new approach to suppress the background data and to extract 2D data of foreground human object of the video sequence. A combination of convex hull area, convex hull perimeter, solidity and eccentricity is used to represent the feature vector. Experiments are conducted on Weizmann video dataset to assess how the system is doing. The discriminative nature of the feature vectors assures accuracy in action recognition.

Human action recognition (HAR) is one of most significant research topics, and it has attracted the concentration of many researchers. Automatic HAR system is applied in several fields like visual surveillance, data retrieval, healthcare, etc. Based on this inspiration, in this chapter, the authors propose a new HAR model that considers an image as input and analyses and exposes the action present in it. Under the analysis phase, they implement two different feature extraction methods with the help of rotation invariant Gabor filter and edge adaptive wavelet filter. For every action image, a new vector called as composite feature vector is formulated and then subjected to dimensionality reduction through principal component analysis (PCA). Finally, the authors employ the most popular supervised machine learning algorithm (i.e., support vector machine [SVM]) for classification. Simulation is done over two standard datasets; they are KTH and Weizmann, and the performance is measured through an accuracy metric.

Human action recognition has gathered significant attention in recent years due to its high demand in various application domains. In this work, we propose a novel codebook generation and hybrid encoding scheme for classification of action videos. The proposed scheme develops a discriminative codebook and a hybrid feature vector by encoding the features extracted from CNNs (convolutional neural networks). We explore different CNN architectures for extracting spatio-temporal features. We employ an agglomerative clustering approach for codebook generation, which intends to combine the advantages of global and class-specific codebooks. We propose a Residual Vector of Locally Aggregated Descriptors (R-VLAD) and fuse it with locality-based coding to form a hybrid feature vector. It provides a compact representation along with high order statistics. We evaluated our work on two publicly available standard benchmark datasets HMDB-51 and UCF-101. The proposed method achieves 72.6% and 96.2% on HMDB51 and UCF101, respectively. We conclude that the proposed scheme is able to boost recognition accuracy for human action recognition.

According to the problem that achieves robust human actions recognition from image sequences in computer vision, using the Iterative Querying Heuristic algorithm as a guide, a improved Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) method is proposed for human action recognition in video image sequences. Experiments show that the new method can quickly recognize human actions and achieve high recognition rates, and on the Weizmann database validate our analysis.
