In the past, a large amount of intensive research has been dedicated to the interpretation of human activity in image and video sequence. This popularity is largely due to the emergence of the wide applications of video cameras in surveillance. In image and video sequence analysis, human activity detection and recognition is critically important. By detecting and understanding the human activity, we can fulfill many surveillance related applications including city centre monitoring, consumer behavior analysis, etc. Generally speaking, human activity interpretation in image and video sequence depends on the following stages: human motion detection and human motion interpretation. In this chapter, the authors provide a comprehensive review of the recent advance of all these stages. Various methods for each issue are discussed to examine the state of the art. Finally, some research challenges, possible applications, and future directions are discussed.

Human Motion Detection

Intense human motion, such as hitting, kicking, and falling, in some particular scenes indicates the occurrence of abnormal events like violence and school bullying. Camera-based human motion detection is an effective way to analyze human behavior and detect intense human motion. However, even if the camera is properly deployed, it will still generate blind spots. Moreover, camera-based methods cannot be used in places such as restrooms and dressing rooms due to privacy issues. In this paper, we propose a multi-target intense human motion detection scheme using commercial Wi-Fi infrastructures. Compared with human daily activities, intense human motion usually has the characteristics of intensity, rapid change, irregularity, large amplitude, and continuity. We studied the changing pattern of Channel State Information (CSI) influenced by intense human motion, and extracted features in the pattern by conducting a large number of experiments. Considering occlusion exists in some complex scenarios, we distinguished the Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) conditions in the case of obstacles appearing between the transmitter and the receiver, which further improves the overall performance. We implemented the intense human motion detection system using single commercial Wi-Fi devices, and evaluated it in real indoor environments. The experimental results show that our system can achieve intense human motion detection rate of 90%.
