Action Exemplar Based Real-Time Action Detection
We propose a real-time action detection system based on a novel action representation and an effective learning method with a small training set. We represent actions with a new feature that measures the global distance from a set of action exemplars, where action exemplars are constructed from a vocabulary that encodes local instantaneous body motions.
