Summary

In the area of computer vision, human action recognition, gait recognition, and gesture recognition (HARGRGR) are important research areas from the last decade. The most important application of HARGRGR is video surveillance. As the imaging technique improvements and the camera expedient promotions, novel approaches for HAR continuously arise. Nowadays, through camera networks, a lot of videos are captured for human activities. Through these activities, it can be possible to predict the future activities of a human. For this purpose, many automated systems are proposed by computer vision researchers using machine learning algorithms. However, the question is how these systems can handle a large number of videos? Also, how they remove redundant or irrelevant information to monitor the required activities? The more recent, deep learning gain a huge success in the area of machine learning to handle a large amount of data with more accuracy as compared to classical techniques. For HARGRGR, deep learning can be more useful because it requires a large amount of data for training.

Sometimes, the deep learning models are trained on complex imaging datasets and due to these complex datasets, the required accuracy cannot be achieved. Therefore, it is possible to fuse two or more than two deep neural networks (layers information, features, etc.). But the question is that how the fusion process impact the system computational time? This problem can be resolve by employing feature reduction techniques.

This special issue aims to gather the achievemen of deep learning, information fusion, and feature selection in fields of action recognition, gait recognition, and gesture recognition.

    Abstract Recognition of dynamic hand gestures in real-time is a difficult task because the system can never know when or from where the gesture starts and ends in a video stream. Many researchers have been working on vision-based gesture recognition due to its various applications. This paper proposes a deep learning architecture based on the combination of a 3D Convolutional Neural Network (3D-CNN) and a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network. The proposed architecture extracts spatial-temporal information from video sequences input while avoiding extensive computation. The 3D-CNN is used for the extraction of spectral and spatial features which are then given to… More >

    Abstract Comprehension algorithms like High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) facilitates fast and efficient handling of multimedia contents. Such algorithms involve various computation modules that help to reduce the size of content but preserve the same subjective viewing quality. However, the brute-force behavior of HEVC is the biggest hurdle in the communication of multimedia content. Therefore, a novel method will be presented here to accelerate the encoding process of HEVC by making early intra mode decisions for the block. Normally, the HEVC applies 35 intra modes to every block of the frame and selects the best among them based on the RD-cost… More >

    Abstract Scheduling a sports tournament is a complex optimization problem, which requires a large number of hard constraints to satisfy. Despite the availability of several such constraints in the literature, there remains a gap since most of the new sports events pose their own unique set of requirements, and demand novel constraints. Specifically talking of the strictly time bound events, ensuring fairness between the different teams in terms of their rest days, traveling, and the number of successive games they play, becomes a difficult task to resolve, and demands attention.

    Abstract The captured outdoor images and videos may appear blurred due to haze, fog, and bad weather conditions. Water droplets or dust particles in the atmosphere cause the light to scatter, resulting in very limited scene discernibility and deterioration in the quality of the image captured. Currently, image dehazing has gained much popularity because of its usability in a wide variety of applications. Various algorithms have been proposed to solve this ill-posed problem. These algorithms provide quite promising results in some cases, but they include undesirable artifacts and noise in haze patches in adverse cases. Some of these techniques take unrealistic… More >

    Abstract Real-time pedestrian detection is an important task for unmanned driving systems and video surveillance. The existing pedestrian detection methods often work at low speed and also fail to detect smaller and densely distributed pedestrians by losing some of their detection accuracy in such cases. Therefore, the proposed algorithm YOLOv2 (“YOU ONLY LOOK ONCE Version 2”)-based pedestrian detection (referred to as YOLOv2PD) would be more suitable for detecting smaller and densely distributed pedestrians in real-time complex road scenes. The proposed YOLOv2PD algorithm adopts a Multi-layer Feature Fusion (MLFF) strategy, which helps to improve the model’s feature extraction ability. In addition, one… More >
