Abstract: Because of the complexity and non-rigidity of human actions, traditional human action recognition based on RGB video data is a very challenging research topic. According to some deficiencies of existing recognition method based on RGB video data, a novel human action recognition method is proposed based on depth image data. In this new method, the block mean feature in the depth difference motion historical image is fused with the Gabor feature as mixed features and then a rotation forest algorithm is used to model. The experimental results show that the proposed method is simple, fast and efficient compared with other supervised action recognition algorithms on DHA depth datasets.

Key words: human action recognition, depth image, depth difference motion historical image, Gabor feature, rotation forest
