Abstract

In this paper a new multi-view/3D human action/interaction database is presented. The database has been created using a convergent eight camera setup to produce high definition multi-view videos, where each video depicts one of eight persons performing one of twelve different human motions. Various types of motions have been recorded, i.e., scenes where one person performs a specific movement, scenes where a person executes different movements in a succession and scenes where two persons interact with each other. Moreover, the subjects have different body sizes, clothing and are of different sex, nationalities, etc.. The multi-view videos have been further processed to produce a 3D mesh at each frame describing the respective 3D human body surface. To increase the applicability of the database, for each person a multi-view video depicting the person performing sequentially the six basic facial expressions separated by the neutral expression has also been recorded. The database is freely available for research purposes.
