摘要

In this paper a novel approach for recognizing actions in video sequences is presented, where the information obtained from the segmentation and tracking algorithms is used as input data. First of all, the fuzzification of input data is done and this process allows to successfully manage the uncertainty inherent to the information obtained from low-level and medium-level vision tasks, to unify the information obtained from different vision algorithms into a homogeneous representation and to aggregate the characteristics of the analyzed scenario and the objects in motion. Another contribution is the novelty of representing actions by means of an automaton and the generation of input symbols for the finite automaton depending on the comparison process between objects and actions, i.e., the main reasoning process is based on the operation of automata with capability to manage fuzzy representations of all video data. The experiments on several real traffic video sequences demonstrate encouraging results, especially when no training algorithms to obtain predefined actions to be identified are required.
