Abstract

Human action recognition is a fundamental component for understanding complex activities or behaviors, especially for video surveillance and health-care applications. In this paper we introduce profile-based human action recognition from multi-view cameras using RGB-D information through a Rectangular Layer Model (RLM). Our model tended to show improved performance when the perspective distortion or the lack of information occurred during a single-view approach. A fusion model was tested for five basic actions: walking and standing, sitting, bending, and laying, and at different perspective viewpoints. The system can perform at 28.99 fps while its overall precision is about 92.25%.
