روش های برآورد موثر حرکت برای تشخیص سریع فعالیت های زندگی روزمره

This work proposes a framework for the efficient recognition of activities of daily living (ADLs), captured by static color cameras, applicable in real world scenarios. Our method reduces the computational cost of ADL recognition in both compressed and uncompressed domains by introducing system level improvements in State-of-the-Art activity recognition methods. Faster motion estimation methods are employed to replace costly dense optical flow (OF) based motion estimation, through the use of fast block matching methods, as well as motion vectors, drawn directly from the compressed video domain (MPEG vectors). This results in increased computational efficiency, with minimal loss in terms of recognition accuracy. To prove the effectiveness of our approach, we provide an extensive, in-depth investigation of the trade-offs between computational cost, compression efficiency and recognition accuracy, tested on bench-mark and real-world ADL video datasets.
