Abstract

Three dimensional human motions recorded by motion capture and hand gestures recorded by using data gloves generate variable-length data streams. These data streams usually have dozens of attributes, and have different variations for similar motions. To segment and recognize motion streams, a classification-based approach is proposed in this paper. Classification feature vectors are extracted by utilizing singular value decompositions (SVD) of motion data. The extracted feature vectors capture the dominating geometric structures of motion data as revealed by SVD. Multi-class support vector machine (SVM) classifiers with class probability estimates are explored for classifying the feature vectors in order to segment and recognize motion streams. Experiments show that the proposed approach can find patterns in motion data streams with high accuracy.
