Abstract

In this study an approach for low latency action recognition is proposed. Low latency action recognition aims to recognize actions without observing the whole action sequence. In the proposed approach, a skeletal model is obtained from depth images. Features extracted from the skeletal model are considered as time series and histograms. To classify actions, Adaboost M1 classifier is utilized with an SVM kernel. The trained classifiers are tested with different action observation ratios and compared with some of the studies in the literature. The model produces promising results without observing the whole action sequence.
