Human action recognition is an important application domain in computer vision. Its primary aim is to accurately describe human actions and their interactions from a previously unseen data sequence acquired by sensors. The ability to recognize, understand and predict complex human actions enables the construction of many important applications such as intelligent surveillance systems, human-computer interfaces, health care, security and military applications. In recent years, deep learning has been given particular attention by the computer vision community. This paper presents an overview of the current state-of-the-art in action recognition using video analysis with deep learning techniques. We present the most important deep learning models for recognizing human actions, analyze them to provide the current progress of deep learning algorithms applied to solve human action recognition problems in realistic videos highlighting their advantages and disadvantages. Based on the quantitative analysis using recognition accuracies reported in the literature, our study identies state-of-the-art deep architectures in action recognition and then provides current trends and open problems for future works in this led.This work was supported by the Cen-tre d'Etudes et d'Expertise sur les Risques, l'environnement
