Skeleton based action recognition using translation-scale invariant image mapping and multi-scale deep cnn
This paper presents an image classification based approach for skeleton-based
video action recognition problem. Firstly, A dataset independent
translation-scale invariant image mapping method is proposed, which transformes
the skeleton videos to colour images, named skeleton-images. Secondly, A
multi-scale deep convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture is proposed
which could be built and fine-tuned on the powerful pre-trained CNNs, e.g.,
AlexNet, VGGNet, ResNet etal.. Even though the skeleton-images are very
different from natural images, the fine-tune strategy still works well. At
last, we prove that our method could also work well on 2D skeleton video data.
We achieve the state-of-the-art results on the popular benchmard datasets e.g.
NTU RGB+D, UTD-MHAD, MSRC-12, and G3D. Especially on the largest and challenge
NTU RGB+D, UTD-MHAD, and MSRC-12 dataset, our method outperforms other methods
by a large margion, which proves the efficacy of the proposed method
SA-Net: Deep Neural Network for Robot Trajectory Recognition from RGB-D Streams
Learning from demonstration (LfD) and imitation learning offer new paradigms
for transferring task behavior to robots. A class of methods that enable such
online learning require the robot to observe the task being performed and
decompose the sensed streaming data into sequences of state-action pairs, which
are then input to the methods. Thus, recognizing the state-action pairs
correctly and quickly in sensed data is a crucial prerequisite for these
methods. We present SA-Net a deep neural network architecture that recognizes
state-action pairs from RGB-D data streams. SA-Net performed well in two
diverse robotic applications of LfD -- one involving mobile ground robots and
another involving a robotic manipulator -- which demonstrates that the
architecture generalizes well to differing contexts. Comprehensive evaluations
including deployment on a physical robot show that \sanet{} significantly
improves on the accuracy of the previous method that utilizes traditional image
processing and segmentation.Comment: (in press
Two-Stream RNN/CNN for Action Recognition in 3D Videos
The recognition of actions from video sequences has many applications in
health monitoring, assisted living, surveillance, and smart homes. Despite
advances in sensing, in particular related to 3D video, the methodologies to
process the data are still subject to research. We demonstrate superior results
by a system which combines recurrent neural networks with convolutional neural
networks in a voting approach. The gated-recurrent-unit-based neural networks
are particularly well-suited to distinguish actions based on long-term
information from optical tracking data; the 3D-CNNs focus more on detailed,
recent information from video data. The resulting features are merged in an SVM
which then classifies the movement. In this architecture, our method improves
recognition rates of state-of-the-art methods by 14% on standard data sets.Comment: Published in 2017 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent

Recurrent Attention Models for Depth-Based Person Identification
We present an attention-based model that reasons on human body shape and
motion dynamics to identify individuals in the absence of RGB information,
hence in the dark. Our approach leverages unique 4D spatio-temporal signatures
to address the identification problem across days. Formulated as a
reinforcement learning task, our model is based on a combination of
convolutional and recurrent neural networks with the goal of identifying small,
discriminative regions indicative of human identity. We demonstrate that our
model produces state-of-the-art results on several published datasets given
only depth images. We further study the robustness of our model towards
viewpoint, appearance, and volumetric changes. Finally, we share insights
gleaned from interpretable 2D, 3D, and 4D visualizations of our model's
spatio-temporal attention.Comment: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) 201
