RGB-D action recognition using linear coding

First, a depth spatial-temporal descriptor is developed to extract the interested local regions in depth image. Then the intensity spatial-temporal descriptor and the depth spatial-temporal descriptor are combined and feeded into a linear coding framework to get an effective feature vector, which can be used for action classification. Finally, extensive experiments are conducted on a publicly available RGB-D action recognition dataset and the proposed method shows promising results.

创新点就这个了：A linear coding framework is developed to fuse the intensity spatial-temporal descriptor and the depth spatial-temporal descriptor to form robust feature vector. In addition, we further exploit the temporal intrinsics of the video sequence and design a new pooling technology to improve the description performance.

Feature extraction

STIPs is an extension of SIFT (Scale-Invariant-Feature-Transform) in 3-dimensional space and uses one of Harris3D, Cuboid or Hessian as the detector.

So the STIPs features in the RGB images disclose more detail characters of the subjects themselves while in the depth images they extract more characters of the shape of the subjects.

Coding approaches

vector quantization (VQ)

One disadvantage of the VQ is that it introduces significant quantization errors since only one element of the codebook is selected to represent the descriptor. To remedy this, one usually has to design a nonlinear SVM as the classifier which tries to compensate the quantization errors. However, using nonlinear kernels, the SVM has to pay a high training cost, including computation and storage. Considering the above defects, localityconstrained linear coding (LLC) –a more accurate and efficient coding approach[9]is adopted to replace VQ in this paper

Pooling strategy

Similar to the VQ coding approach, the LLC coding coefficients ci are expected to be combined into a global representation of the sample for classification.

DataSet

RGBD-HuDaAct[1]video database

The video sample consists of synchronized and calibrated RGB-D frame sequences, which contains in each frame a RGB image and a depth image, respectively. The RGB and depth images in each frame have been calibrated with a standard stereocalibration method available in OpenCV so that the points with the same coordinate in RGB and depth images are corresponded.
