Action Recognition in Surveillance Videos with Combined Deep Network Models

[Abstract] Action recognition is an important topic in computer vision. Recently, deep learning technologies have been successfully used in lots of applications including video data for sloving recognition problems. However, most existing deep learning based recognition frameworks are not optimized for action in the surveillance videos. In this paper, we propose a novel method to deal with the recognition of different types of actions in outdoor surveillance videos. The proposed method first introduces motion compensation to improve the detection of human target. Then, it uses three different types of deep models with single and sequenced images as inputs for the recognition of different types of actions. Finally, predictions from different models are fused with a linear model. Experimental results show that the proposed method works well on the real surveillance videos.
