| Research Abstract |
In the fields of visual surveillance, welfare robotics, and human interface, it is important that a computer can recognize the posture/motion of people. In this research, we try to estimate human postures from monocular image sequences.
We propose the cyclic motion model which is a state space model to represent motions. In the model, the state of a system is represented by the phase of a motion, assuming that the motion is cyclic. The state (i.e. the phase) is estimated from a monocular image sequence using the sequential Monte Carlo method. Then, the posture is computed from the state. The cyclic motion model is learned from motion capture data. In addition, we extend the cyclic motion model to allow for camera viewpoint changes.
Experiments show the validity of the proposed technique.
