Abstract
Recently, the RGB-D based Human Action Recognition (HAR) has gained significant research attention due to the provision of complimentary information by different data modalities. However, the current models have experienced still unsatisfactory results due to several problems including noises and view point variations between different actions. To sort out these problems, this paper proposes two new action descriptors namely Modified Depth Motion Map (MDMM) and Spherical Redundant Joint Descriptor (SRJD). MDMM eliminates the noises from depth maps and preserves only the action related information. Further SRJD ensures resilience against view point variations and reduces the misclassifications between different actions with similar view properties. Further, to maximize the recognition accuracy, standard deep learning algorithm called as Residual Neural Network (ResNet) is used to train the system through the features extracted from MDMM and SRJD. Simulation experiments prove that the multiple data modalities are better than single data modality. The proposed approach was tested on two public datasets namely NTURGB+D dataset and UTD-MHAD dataset. The testing results declare that the proposed approach is superior to the earlier HAR methods. On an average, the proposed system gained an accuracy of 90.0442% and 92.3850% at Cross-subject and Cross-view validations respectively.
