Human Action Recognition In Videos Using Transfer Learning, Kaiqiang Huang, Sarah Jane Delany, Susan Mckeever

Session 1: Active Vision, Tracking, Motion Analysis

A variety of systems focus on detecting the actions and activities performed by humans, such as video surveillance and health monitoring systems. However, published labelled human action datasets for training supervised machine learning models are limited in number and expensive to produce. The use of transfer learning for the task of action recognition can help to address this issue by transferring or re-using the knowledge of existing trained models, in combination with minimal training data from the new target domain. Our focus in this paper is an investigation of video feature representations and machine learning algorithms for transfer learning for …

Session 1: Active Vision, Tracking, Motion Analysis

The ability to identify and draw appropriate implications from non-verbal cues is a challenging task in facial expression recognition and has been investigated by various disciplines particularly social science, medical science, psychology and technological sciences beyond three decades. Non-verbal cues often last a few seconds and are obvious (macro) whereas others are very short and difficult to interpret (micro). This research is based on the area of micro expression recognition with the main focus laid on understanding and exploring the combined effect of various existing feature extraction techniques and one of the most renowned machine learning algorithms identified as Support …
