Towards complex activity recognition using a Bayesian network-based probabilistic generative framework

作者:

Highlights:

• A Bayesian network-based probabilistic generative framework is presented to address diversity and uncertainty in complex activity recognition.

• The framework introduces the Chinese restaurant process to explicitly characterize the unique configurations of a complex activity.

• An enhanced model is presented to characterize more temporal relational variabilities than the previous models over our framework.

• Our models significantly outperform the state-of-the-arts on three benchmark datasets with different challenges.

• Our approach is robust against the incomplete or incorrect observations of primitive events.
