Abstract

Classical dance forms are an integral part of the Indian culture and heritage. Therefore, preserving and comprehending these dance forms is a relevant problem in context with the digital preservation of the Indian Heritage. In this paper, we propose a novel framework to classify Indian classical dance forms from videos. The representations are then extracted through Deep Convolution Neural Network(DCNN) and Optical Flow. Moreover these representations are trained on a multi-class linear support vector machine(SVM). Furthermore, a novel dataset is introduced to evaluate the performance of the proposed framework. The framework is able to achieve the accuracy of 75.83 % when tested on 211 videos.
