Abstract

Human actions recognition (HAR) and understanding become very popular topics in the field of computer vision and signal processing. The purpose of human activities recognition is to automatically examine and characterize actions from a video sequence. The main goal of a HAR system is to identify simple actions of everyday life (like walking, running, jumping ...) from videos. Each of these actions, performed by one person or many persons within a specific period of time, must be represented by a simple movement model. In recent years, a large number of applications of HAR have been proposed in literature such as video surveillance, human-computer interaction and video indexing. In this line, we present our method for HAR using Mask Region Based CNN, MRCNN. This technique will help us to make the accent on the body of individual and this step facilitates the recognition of the current action. With the mask RCNN we used key frame extraction and background extraction. This framework was tested on two datasets KTH and WEIZMANN datasets and experimental results showed the performance of the proposed technique.
