Özet:

Visual analysis of human motion is one of the active research areas in computer vision. The trend shifts from computing motion fields to understanding actions. In this thesis, an action coding scheme based on trajectories of the features calculated with respect to a part based coordinate system is presented. The part based coordinate system is formed using an axis based representation. The features are extracted from images segmented in the form of silhouettes. We present some preliminary experiments that demonstrate the potential of the method in action similarity analysis.
