Automatically understanding human actions from video sequences is a very challenging problem. This involves the extraction of relevant visual information from a video sequence, re...
Abstract. We propose a novel method to detect human poses in videos by concurrently optimizing body part matching and object segmentation. With a single exemplar image, the propose...
Abstract. We propose a methodology for recognizing actions at a distance by watching the human poses and deriving descriptors that capture the motion patterns of the poses. Human p...
