摘要
Human action recognition turns more important for the need of several applications such as personal assistive robotics and video surveillance. In this paper, we provide an effective method for human action recognition with angles of body parts and body motion vectors. We represent an human action as a sequence of body postures. Each body posture is represent by the body parts angles which are computed from the kinect outputted 3D skeletal joints. A motion vector is calculated from the sequence of body postures. We then use the state machine which generated from training data set to recognize the action from the body posture sequence and the corresponding motion vectors. The experimental results show that our method is real-time and has higher action recognition accuracy than the compared method in action recognition. It indicates that our method is efficient and effective to recognize human actions. What is more, our method has the advantage of view invariance and body size invariance. 1553-9105/Copyright © 2014 Binary Information Press.
