Abstract Real-time surveillance is attributed to recognizing the variety of actions performed by humans. Human Action Recognition (HAR) is a technique that recognizes human actions from a video stream. A range of variations in human actions makes it difficult to recognize with considerable accuracy. This paper presents a novel deep neural network architecture called Attention RB-Net for HAR using video frames. The input is provided to the model in the form of video frames. The proposed deep architecture is based on the unique structuring of residual blocks with several filter sizes. Features are extracted from each… More >

Abstract In recent years, wearable devices-based Human Activity Recognition (HAR) models have received significant attention. Previously developed HAR models use hand-crafted features to recognize human activities, leading to the extraction of basic features. The images captured by wearable sensors contain advanced features, allowing them to be analyzed by deep learning algorithms to enhance the detection and recognition of human actions. Poor lighting and limited sensor capabilities can impact data quality, making the recognition of human actions a challenging task. The unimodal-based HAR approaches are not suitable in a real-time environment. Therefore, an updated HAR model is… More >

Abstract The development of artificial intelligence (AI) and smart home technologies has driven the need for speech recognition-based solutions. This demand stems from the quest for more intuitive and natural interaction between users and smart devices in their homes. Speech recognition allows users to control devices and perform everyday actions through spoken commands, eliminating the need for physical interfaces or touch screens and enabling specific tasks such as turning on or off the light, heating, or lowering the blinds. The purpose of this study is to develop a speech-based classification model for recognizing human actions in… More >

Abstract Human Action Recognition (HAR) in uncontrolled environments targets to recognition of different actions from a video. An effective HAR model can be employed for an application like human-computer interaction, health care, person tracking, and video surveillance. Machine Learning (ML) approaches, specifically, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models had been widely used and achieved impressive results through feature fusion. The accuracy and effectiveness of these models continue to be the biggest challenge in this field. In this article, a novel feature optimization algorithm, called improved Shark Smell Optimization (iSSO) is proposed to reduce the redundancy of extracted… More >

Abstract Artificial intelligence is increasingly being applied in the field of video analysis, particularly in the area of public safety where video surveillance equipment such as closed-circuit television (CCTV) is used and automated analysis of video information is required. However, various issues such as data size limitations and low processing speeds make real-time extraction of video data challenging. Video analysis technology applies object classification, detection, and relationship analysis to continuous 2D frame data, and the various meanings within the video are thus analyzed based on the extracted basic data. Motion recognition is key in this analysis.… More >

Abstract Human action recognition (HAR) attempts to understand a subject’s behavior and assign a label to each action performed. It is more appealing because it has a wide range of applications in computer vision, such as video surveillance and smart cities. Many attempts have been made in the literature to develop an effective and robust framework for HAR. Still, the process remains difficult and may result in reduced accuracy due to several challenges, such as similarity among actions, extraction of essential features, and reduction of irrelevant features. In this work, we proposed an end-to-end framework using… More >
