Abstract

Human behavior analysis is an open problem in the computer vision community. The aim of this paper is to model human actions. We present a taxonomy in order to discuss about a knowledge-based classification of human behavior. A novel human action model is presented, called the aSpace, based on a Point Distribution Model (PDM). This representation is compact, accurate and specific. The human body model is represented as a stick figure, and several sequences of humans actions are used to compute the aSpace. In order to test our action representation, two applications are provided: recognition and synthesis of actions.
