Abstract:
Nowadays, more and more activity recognition algorithms begin to improve recognition performance by combining the RGB and depth information. Although, the space-time volumes (STV) algorithm and the space-time local features algorithm can combine the RGB and depth information effectively, they also have their own defects. Such as they need expensive computational cost and they are not suitable for modeling nonperiodic activity. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for three dimensional human activity recognition that combines spatial-domain local texture features and spatio-temporal local texture features. On the one hand, in order to extract spatial local texture features, we mix the RGB and depth image sequence which have been applied with ViBe (Visual Background extractor) and binarization operator. Then we obtain the RGB-MOHBBI and depth-MOBHBI respectively and perform intersect operation on them. Afterwards, we extract LBP feature from the mixed MOHBBI to describe spatial domain feature. On the other hand, we follow the same background subtraction and binarization method to process the RGB and depth image sequences and get the spatial-temporal local texture features. And then, we project the three dimensional image volume on plane X-T and plane Y-T to get the spatio-temporal behavior volume change image to which we apply LBP operator to extract features that can represent human activity feature in spatio-temporal domain. At last, we combine the two local features that are extracted by LBP algorithm as one integrated feature of our model final output. Extensive experiments are conducted on the BUPT Arm Activity Dataset and the BUPT Arm And Finger Activity Dataset. The experimental results demonstrate the algorithm we proposed in this paper can make up for the deficiency of traditional activity recognition algorithms effectively and provide excellent experiment results on different databases of various complexities.
